Ultrasonic Cleaning Machine

Hey Gang!  I've been reading a fair amount lately about the Knosti Disco-Antistat Ultrasonic 2.0 record cleaning machine.  What really piques my interest is that it's about a third the cost of the Degritter Mark II.  Anybody out there have any direct experience using this machine?  My understanding is that Knosti does not yet have a US distributor lined up but is trying to establish one.  Hopefully, once this happens, the cost of the machine can be contained.  The other wild card, of course, is the potential impact of these foolish tariffs.  Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Thanks for chiming in on this one!

Judging from a close-up look at Knosti's switching adapter plug, I think 36W is the maximum power output.  Seems pretty anemic.  I, also, noticed that the rotational speed seemed quite fast and there doesn't seem to be any way to modulate this, as well as no heat selection capability.  The machine probably relies on whatever heat is generated by the ultrasonic action.  I found The Audiophile Man review informative, too, as well as this YouTube review:
