Recorded Cleaning Machnies

There's considerably more to the Kirmuss system than just the machine. I would certainly like to try his method.

I did purchase the ISonics machine from Amazon.  It seems to clean okay, but the heater doesn't work.  After 30 minutes, the water was still room temp.  Most likely it was damaged in shipment, as the box was totally and completely trashed when it arrived.  Sending it back, I'll probably order another one later.  Maybe from a different vendor this time!

BTW, for those of you who owe the ISonics, do you find the records are still fairly damp when the drying cycle is over?  The cloth was needed, but it only picked up a little moisture, the records are not completely dry.  If this is normal, then I'll need more drying cloths, as one is not enough for a big cleaning session.

@spatialking - I have not used the Isonic machine, but I'm not sure you need "heat" to clean records; in fact, the cavitation action alone will cause the water temperature to rise. I took a quick look on Amazon to see what machine you might have bought and the description, while including heat settings, said that certain models don't include a heater. 

Does the device you received have some sort of forced air drying? I assumed it was an ultrasonic bath with a rotisserie or other record spinning mechanism only. 

If in fact your unit has a heater that is nonfunctional, I would contact Isonic directly.  They have good service and will either fix or repair the problem.  I don't use a dryer with the Isonic so I can't help you with that problem.

Yes, it has a heater, one of the settings controls the water temperature.  Since I got it on Amazon with Prime, it is easier to return it and buy another one.  I think I will buy it directly from iSonics.  The box that arrived was seriously trashed!

This is the unit I purchased: iSonic CS6.1-Pro Motorized Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaner for 10 LPs, with Filter and Spin Drying, 1.6 Gal/6L, 110V   Rather than post a link that may not work for you, it is better to do a search for it on Amazon.

The drying cycle is a spin dry; if the water was warm, I am sure the records would come out drier than with room temp water.  However, that being said, they are dry enough after a quick wipe with the supplied cloth.
