Thanks for posting this extensive review. I'm considering this ultrasonic RCM. Thanks for posting your experiences. I do have a VPI 16.5 vacuum system that I'm thinking to use as a drying solution after the wet records come out of the Vevor. No reason that I can see to spend multiple thousands on name brand ultrasonic cleaners just because they have the right name that all the mainstream pubs keep pushing on us. After all, ultrasonic is ultrasonic no matter its packaging. BTW, the Mardi Gras mask on your fridge is ubiquitous to my home-town of New Orleans. I have a few samples similar to yours. Cheers! 😁

I have mine in my garage. Yes its noisy. But it works great.

Would really like to try an ultrasonic but the horrific sound it seems to make is holding me off. I have 3 adorable cats living with me and I would prob have to take them all to the vet after the first cleaning 🤷🏼‍♂️😂

You should really be using hearing protection when using an ultrasonic cleaner. The fact that you can't hear the actual ultrasonic signal does not mean that it won't harm your hearing - it can. I use 3M earplugs and I leave the room as soon as mine is running.

Just bought one of these for a great price on eBay! Cleaning some LPs today!

very helpful info mate. regarding your paint stains, if the paint was latex based, a small amount of ammonia in the solution may help. ( this is NOT a method I have tried ) but latex is softened by ammonia.

Great album on your counter buy the way.

Thanks for the videos (both 1 and 2) I have a couple of hundred records that I cleaned in my dish sink with warm water, Dawn detergent and some 91% alcohol. It did clean them them up some but many (like you, I bought a lot of them used) and were terrible. Been wanting to improve them and I think this is the way to go. I couldnt see spending 500 or more (US) dollars and now seeing this one under 200 seems reasonable and will allow me to enjoy my records more. (When the Mrs lets me play them lol) . Anyway, thanks again! Cheers! (ps my eyes have been going for nearly 25 years... lolol)

I think I'll stick to my rake and broom

there is a nice video in German from Bavarian Vinyl Nerd

Just bought this but didn't use it yet. I need more distilled water. Wonder if you had any issues tightening the little screw on the rotating shaft of the motor. I can feel a flat part on the bottom side that probably should be at the top. Looking forward to the cleaning results!

Good job mate, I’m in the same boat my lawns 20 years old never been done. You can put your fingers in into it and pick it up from the second knuckle. It’s like a shaggy carpet Did you use the scarifier blade or the spring-loaded power rake attachment? I’m a bit worried if I use the actual blade or the scarifier itself, it will kill it. ……… There is plenty of reviews on KZfaq saying do not scarifier Buffalo when I count of the runners and if you do it’s very rare and there’s a high chance of killing it. However the power rake is supposed to be okay so I was wondering which one you used ……..

Very thorough review. I appreciate you sharing the things you learned along the way. I just purchased one of these machines and your video will make my process better. Thank you.

A bit cluttered room buddy , be careful not to lose anything in there.

The nozzle should increase the speed significantly, perhaps even doubling it. It may have improved the performance of the blower. Pity that was not covered in the video. The innuendos to blowjobs and sucking were distasteful, nevermind very amateurish and not funny.

I ordered one of these based on your recommendation and it should be here in a couple of days. What I've gleaned from the internet: 2 lps at a time, about 95 F temp, 5 or so minutes cleaning, pre clean with tergitol solution, no chems in tank just distilled water. I have a vacuum cleaning machine that I'll use to dry. Thank you Tim.

626 clean you wanna sell it

Thank you for sharing your honest opinion on this unit. I purchased one today prior to seeing your video. I was previously using Tergikleen and a vinyl vac system. I read many reviews, and saw a few videos, and decided for the price point was definitely worth trying. I have seen many positive reviews, but also my fair share of negative. But I appreciate your advice and your breakdown of doing 1 record at a time vs 5. I also appreciate that the noise level, while loud, isn't a deterrent like many have said. I am looking forward to trying it myself, and your video helped make me feel more comfortable about my purchase

I used one of these for the first time recently. IT WAS GREAT, VERY GOOD.

Just wanted to thank you as I didn’t even know where to start with this machine. I’m new to cleaning records manually, let alone ultrasonically. Pretty simple to use, just wanted to be sure of the temperature, time, how much water to use, how many records to put in etc Nearly finished deep cleaning around 150 old records - some of them nearly 70 years old! You can really hear the difference. I recorded how some of them sounded after manual cleaning and then after ultrasonic cleaning. There really is no comparison. The crackles were still very obvious after a manual clean but virtually gone after a US clean. The manual clean was with decent washing fluid I might add. I think you may have mentioned this but in case you didn’t: if you’re using this machine you will need to use ALL of the spacers or the records won’t rotate.

If it is intended to do several passes. Remove the waste grass after each pass. It is extra work but a better job is the outcome. Not doing this the scarifier will ride up and over the waste from the previous pass. We have the Ryobi and it is brilliant, definitely value for money.

He mejorado la estanqueidad de los separadores con unos recortes de goma Eva. Al ocupar mas espacio he cambiado la arandela de cierre por otra más pequeña.

I put an aquarium filter on my machine. It keeps the water clean for much longer cycles. No nasty particles lurking on the bottom of the tank. My machine holds 8 records at a time so more crud in the water that is safely filtered out.

Leave in the fart.

How do u clean it

Wish my wife could compete with that Ryobi.

One thing to point out is that many records have noise in the pressing. They can look like mint and be sold as mint under the goldmine visual grading standard, but have all kinds of issues. The reasons are plenty, pressing faults, worn out stampers etc. So if you have a record that has maybe 3 cleans and still has lots of noise, it probably is as good as it gets. Also beware of ultrasound cleaning of records with visible pressing contour flaws(bubbles, ridges etc) especially old basement soul, Jamaican and African records, the ultrasound can cause them to unlaminate, crack or open up at the flaw.

Does the nozzle make a difference? What made you remove it for the video??

ya that is not a measuring cup it's the tool for you air valve.

The bread is burnt lol. Thankyou for making me not buy this

What cleaning fluid would you use for old shellac 78's and an ultrasonic cleaner? I've read alcohol based will damage them.

Thank You for the video. I'm in agreement with your positive review of this particular machine. In my opinion however, your recommendation to "not think of the spacers as label protectors" is derived from improper usage. My experienced recommendation is that this motor/spindle/spacer set-up, was not designed to clean 5 records at once. Cleaning a maximum of 4 allows a puck (spacer/ label protector) on both sides of each record. Now then, you can fill the tank by visually looking at water level in relation to (stopping short of) outside puck. Since all pucks are same size and larger than all labels, problems averted. Secondly, my preference is to clean a maximum of only 2 records at a time using 3 pucks between. This maximizes spacing to allow more exposure to ultrasonic bombardment. Thirdly, its VERY IMPORTANT to monitor the tank heater temperature with an external thermometer. You don't want to warp your precious vinyl. I found my water temp getting MUCH higher than the dial setting.

Is this guy winding me up? You fill the tank to a level that won't contact the labels. And why does he not put the disc protectors on either side of the record, with the smaller plastic bobbins in place to create the gap necessary between each record so the ultrasonic bath can work effectively. I only managed 5mins and had to turn him off. Probably turned out to be an April fools! 😂

Dosent the record spindle adjust up to load records then down to clean?

Thanks for the outside. Hilarious. And the info. I’ll get one. Would love the rank solution recipe tho

I hope Kmart never hires this guy for product reviews. They’d be out of business in seconds.

Great video and really informative, particularly the tips about the paddle and inflation! (gonna be stuffed the first few times too I reckon :)

This is hard to watch. An absolute Muppet who doesn't understand to cut things a little before hand. Not even slicing an onion in half. My god if your posting videos know what your doing 🤦🤦🤦

Your meant to cut the onion in half and also the carrot 🙄🙄🫣🫣🤣🤣

Traté de llamar al # que dan para Colombia y me decían: Marcacion Incorrecta.

Do you think the sound of the machine has loosened the wax in your ears that's why they sound better?😂

This is so Australian. Love it.

how about a link for the machine?

Get a Kirmuss, You may trust this bit of advice..

How to connect to internet

Does it come with 7 inch adapter?

Cleaning many LP's at a time is not the way to go, the records act as baffles blocking the ultrasonics. However I must say even cleaning just one LP often failed to give a decent result, even when cleaning for Five hours! Sometimes a record is unsaveable ☹️ Personally I don't think these are much good.

What the name of the song at the end? Thx for a nice video btw :)

How about a whole cabbage test? 🤣🙌

"It doesn't look like its purpose built" - of course not. Its an industrial product used by many many applications all over the world. The low price possible because they add a cheap motor and assembly for the records. Imagine by the way that some people spend a fortune on one that looks like a million and cost a fortune. You pay a lot to be able to just drop the records in. - og imagine the machines with vacuum. That's a plain joke. if you want that function, purchase a cheap used player and break off the old arm - and use it as spinning machine - Anyway, this machine makes the difference. We have 21.300 records, of which many are cleaned. easy.
