This cleaner works as stated but note this is an entry level device. This means that all the features work but there are more sophistocated models available at higher cost. Things to note; 1) the distribution of the ultrasonic effect is not completely even throughout the tank, but cleans well, 2) the heater can take up to 50 minutes to reach the 35C temperature I require (baseline temperature typically is 22C), 3) the build-in thermometer under reads by between 1-2C (I use a separate thermometer), and 4) it is no noisier than other models I have used. I tested electrical safety and all is OK. Basically does its job.

Subsonic is more like it, all i can surmise is the transducers are not properly glued on, there's too much epoxy glue and it acts as a insulator instead of a contactor. This thing barely ripples the water and the only real cleaning action i observed was from the soap in the water. In a true ultrasonic you can see the cleaning action take place, the dirt literally moves from the object into the water and you can observe that. This machine displays NO ultrasonic action. My plan is to cut the transducers from the bottom of the pan and try and reattach them so they have a more positive interface, hopefully this will allow more sound waves to transfer through into the water and make something happen. Looks like a good build otherwise.

This ultrasonic cleaner appears to be just the ticket. It's reasonably priced and of good quality construction. The controls are easy to use. From my experience on the first use, the controller overshoots temperature quite a bit and is not real accurate. The setting of 70 degrees C, took two hours to reach temperature and overshot by 7 deg C. There was only 5 cups of liquid in the tank. Actual temperature reading using an Omega handheld with 1/8"ss probe showed the actual temp was about 6 deg C over the displayed temp.

Glad I picked this over the smaller unit. I am using this to clean gun parts and the larger size works well with an AR15 bolt carrier. I use distilled water and Simple Green Pro HD. Be sure to get the parts dry after to prevent rust from starting. I only use it to clean the barrels and recoil springs of pistols. I won't use it to clean the slides unless I take the whole slide apart so as to not trap fluids in with the firing pin. The higher timer setting is great as it took over 20 minutes to clean 3 barrels and springs and the upper of my S&W Victory 22. Check out all the ultrasonic videos out there. I did before buying mine.

It is worth the cost, good solid construction. Heater works. Sonic works. Easy to use. I think it is a very good machine and highly recommend it. One small thing about a future design consideration: recess the water drain just a touch to help the water flow out when emptying.
