Customer Reviews for VEVOR Ultrasonic Cleaner 6L Ultrasonic Vinyl Cleaner 7-12 Inch 8 Records Ultrasonic Vinyl Cleaning Machine 180W Ultrasonic Records Cleaner with Drying Rack for Home Store

Make sure you set aside at least a couple of hours, depending on how many disks you’re planning to clean the first go-round. And make sure you have earplugs, cause this thing is LOUD.The design is simple enough, it’s very intuitive. One thing I really liked was the drainage spout. I had two one-gallon jugs of distilled water, and added the cleaner concentrate to one of them. After a round of cleaning (20 minutes seemed like plenty), I’d just drain the solution back into its container, then pour the rinse into the unit, and run it for another 10 minutes, then drain that into its container. It was way more efficient than I anticipated, I was able to do 5 or 6 runs like this without the rinse getting visibly contaminated (while the cleaner solution got DIRTY).Worth the $$ in my view. I have a ton of old records that sound much much better now.

Excellent product and rapid shipping, also very responsive customer support. It is difficult to believe this product is priced as reasonably as it is.The record mounting and rotator assembly is designed very well.I can clean from one 12” lp up to 8 lps at a time, with out any mounting or shaft sagging problems. I have not used unit to clean 45s.I am using 1ml x-100 surfactant to 5.6L distilled water.As the water warms by the cavitation I don’t use the heater.This ultrasonic action will make what you thought was a clean lp, sound cleaner with more detail.Highly recommend for those who value their vinyl collection and want the best sound.

Cleaned over 700 records with this a still going strong. The best and most notable improvement to lp's is removal of background hiss on dirty lp's. I use filtered tap water and a drop of Dawn detergent for 10 min @ 100 degrees. If you are buying older lp's, this is a must have.

Maybe a little more description on recommended chemicals to add to the water to help for better cleaning

I have use ultrasonics for my business for years, so when i broke out my old vinyls I was looking for the best way to clean them. I tried Gruv-Glide and that worked OK, but it was not enough. Research led me to this machine. It's like making 30 year old records sound like new. I am using the Tegrikleen soap in distilled water. I am going to make a video of and post it in a few days of my full process. If you are trying to get your records really clean again, this is what you need.

I bought this specifically for cleaning my vinyl records. It works as well as any ultrasonic cleaner would and I do notice a difference when I use it. I bought this because it is a fraction of the cost of the fancier audio file ones that the record just sits in a slot.That said it is a major production to clean your records. You have to put them on a spindle and adjust the height to submerse the grooves into the liquid. It is nice that you can do 4 records at once. Every once in a while when I have a stack of records that need a deep cleaning I will pull it out and spend half the day cleaning them.One word of advice in its use, use just a tiny bit of Surfactant in your distilled water.

It works great! Has brought a few records back to life completely! Water gets dirty fast & requires more changes that I thought, but I guess that means it’s working!

I was shocked at how much dirt and grime came off of “new” and “clean” records I owned. I could actually hear the change in the depth of the sound.It did take some practice to figure out everything to get the results that I wanted as far as cleaning solutions and rinsing and drying techniques, but once I got it all worked out, I was getting through over 20 records an hour!!For me, it was totally worth the investment to get that much clarity and elimination of static!!

Works well. Set up is easy.

The only thing lacking are instructions, there literally aren't any. What you get is a picture of the parts and what it looks like when assembled. Having said that it is quite simple and takes maybe three minutes to complete. Don't be the fool I was when installing the spin rod set screw. Do not line up the set screw with the flat part of the spin rod, if you do then your records will fall into the distilled water as the set screw will not secure the spin rod and it will fall off into the h2o. Rotate the spin rod and be sure that the set screw is tightened down on the rounded part of the spin rod. I was close to sending it back until I figured out my foolish mistake. It now spins the records properly and securely. Also, due to the spin rod threads only going about three quarters of the way up I find it impossible to clean only one album and firmly secure the album. I clean four at a time and make sure that you use all of the spacers which will allow you to screw the holding knob all the way way to securely hold the albums and spin correctly. Also, it's imperative that the machine is level. Whew enough of that.Now for the performance. Absolutely fantastic with deep groove cleaning. I have 1200 albums when I started collecting in 1969 and stopped buying in 1989. So all of my albums are very old and have been played numerous times over the years. Sadly, I did not have a very good sound system back then using a cheap turntable and stylus.I set the temperature at 30 degrees Celsius and the cleaning time to 30 minutes. You will need to degass the distilled h2o before adding your vinyl cleaner. I set it to degass for 20 minutes then I added Tritón X - 100 mixed with a tablespoon of my spin clean solution. The final and important step is to be sure that you rinse each album with distilled h2o. I bought a cheap pump action garden sprayer from Amazon for $10.99 and it works fine. After rinsing I place each album on the included drying rack and air dry.I'm using a AT-LP7 turnt
