Recorded Cleaning Machnies


I'm going to buy a ultra sonic record cleaning machine.  I am looking seriously at the Degritter MK2 but I just found the Isonic CS6.1-Pro Record Cleaning System, which has the advantage of cleaning 10 records at a time.  Anyone have any experience with either of these?  Comments?  I have a lot of records (like most folks reading this I suppose) so cleaning 10 records at a time is a big deal.  There is a price difference, but frankly, that is not too big a deal given what I am buying here.

... some of the ultrasonic cleaners I see advertise no rinsing is necessary.  I suppose with a flow agent, the cleaning solution should sheet right off.  Maybe a chemist here can explain ...

I've always rinsed an LP after using a cleaner, and then dried it on the OG Nitty Gritty machine I bought decades ago. But that's only for records bought used that require that degree of attention - which is uncommon for me.

The issue I have with LPs is just common dust. That requires no cleaning agent at all, ime. I use just distilled water in a Klaudio ultrasonic machine, insert the disc, push one button, and the machine washes and dries the LP automagically. It's so-oooo simple.
