Harbor Freight ultrasonic cleaner?

[Aqua-Andy]

Of the people that have purchased this cleaner, how does it work? Is it worth it?

I have the digital version with the heater. Works great so far.

Get the bigger one with the solution heater. Works well for the price. Using hot simple green solution with some vinegar in it. Be careful you don't put too many parts in it though. I have found it cleans much better with fewer parts, even though you can fit a whole manifold in there it will take 10+ cycles to get clean. Load no more than 2 valves at a time for decent results.

I have been using the larger unheated one for quite a while. Works fine so far.

I also have the large, unheated one. It's been fine for me.

Yeap, it's good for the price...
And don't use vinegar on plastic and rubber parts as it will degrade them over time.

I would think the smaller one would do fine for most regs. I do a lot of the old double hose regs and needed the larger one so the cans would fit ,the are over 5 inches across.

The big one goes on sale for about $59 from time to time.
