Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaner- 40kHz Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning Machine with Auto Drying, Vinyl Record Cleaner Kit with Filters, 1Y Warranty (HG01 Dark Gray, 12 Inch)

I waited to pull the trigger on this for a good while because it was pretty expensive. When the new version came out this one came down in price and I pulled the trigger. I honestly am blown away by well this thing works. Not sure how much better the newer version is but not sure how much better I need than this one. I’ve already cleaned a few hundred records in the first two months I’ve owned it and it makes cleaning records a breeze. I was cleaning records by hand and it was very time-consuming and I always felt like I was just pushing the dirt and dust into the grooves. I was using the groove washer G2 formula which seemed to be pretty good but I actually noticed a buildup on my needle from time to time so I’m guessing whatever was on the surface got pushed in further. Ever since switching over to this ultrasonic cleaner my needle is also clean after each spin. New or clean records just need the short cycle but I have a lot of old 12 inch singles from the 90s and early 2000s that all looks like the sample I posted here. Just completely coated in dust. I literally took it out of the sleep and dropped it in to the bath that also includes three drops of the ultrasonic vinyl record cleaning agent also by Humminguru. I would 100% recommend adding that. A little goes a long way. It takes 2 to 3 drops per tank. If your records are fairly clean you can clean up to 20 records before you have to swap out the solution but if they’re dirty like the one in this example You should probably swap it out every three records or so. You can literally look at the tank and if you see it it’s cloudy or dust floating around just dump it and make another quick batch. Super simple to do. Also, the drying cycle is awesome. It’s nothing more than filling up the tank, dropping in the Album, pushing the cycle button and letting it run. I’ve heard a couple people complain about it being loud and squeaky but who cares. It’s not that obnoxiously loud and it’s not like I’m running it eight hours a day.

This is the most effective cleaning record method I have used. I started cleaning my records in the 1970s with the DiscWasher system and a Vac-O-Rec. I continued using these two until several years ago when I switched to the GrooveWasher. Although the GrooveWasher is good, I never could remove a lint-kind of debris on few of my records that would clog-up my stylus after a couple of minutes of playing. The records looked clean and pristine to the naked eye but would not play well. I cleaned these records with the HumminGuru and the records came out totally clean! No more debris on my stylus! I can hear some pops and clicks here and there but nothing like they were before. And this is with the worst of my records. My other records came out perfectly as well. The machine is easy to use, compact and well made, and most importantly, effective. Add the great price (as compared to top quality ultrasonic machines) and you have a winner.

I purchased this about six months ago and have used it to clean approximately 500 records so far. It works great and I have had zero issues. I combine this with a spin clean which I use first then use this for the final step. Ultrasonic really gets in the grooves and makes a noticeable difference. If you're on the fence about cleaning your vinyl, the biggest or most drastic difference I noticed was using the spin clean. If you buy one thing that's the most noticeable difference from just a brush. If you want to go the last 10% then get this Humminguru Nova. It can clean deeper and more thoroughly. It makes a high pitched squeal while using it (kind of like a subway car coming to a stop... But quieter) it's really nice that it also dries your vinyl as well. The only draw back is it's a little pricey although compared to a Degritter this isn't bad at all. Note: I have only used the Nova Humminguru and unsure how the other model works but I would guess similar other than that this one has a few more options in drying and cleaning and I think the fans are supposedly better on the Nova.

This record cleaning machine makes ultrasonic technology affordable and practical. In terms of ease of use it is unsurpassed. The Nova is the new second generation machine that was developed with feedback from customers who bought and use the original HumminGuru, which is still available. I use mine in conjunction with a VPI Vacuum record cleaning machine. There are pluses and minuses to each technology, but in tandem the result provides unsurpassed record cleaning capabilities. For the record collector buying new, or almost new records the HumminGuru is all you need. It should be used before playing your record for the first time, then store it in a poly sleeve. Throw away the paper sleeve if it came with one. If your record was bought used or is very dirty, then it would be best if you wash it first, either by hand or with a machine like the VPI, and then finish with the HumminGuru. If you already have a machine like the VPI and your records are already clean, you may ask will an ultrasonic machine like the HumminGuru improve your sound? Yes, absolutely. Ultrasonic cleaning makes any record sound more alive, brighter, in short it adds sparkle to the presentation. You will love it. Finally a word about reliability. HumminGuru has been on the market for a few years. The reports are that the company has excellent customer support. That they have introduced Nova attests to that fact. I could find no reports of machine failures. The machine is well thought out, easy to use, comes complete in every way and includes an excellent, well written owner's manual.

Works well and looks good too;)

Enkel att använda, prisvärd och ger ett bra resultat. Dock en bra idé att ha realistiska förväntningar på vad denna typ av skivtvätt faktiskt åstadkommer. Det är inget mirakelmedel mot defekter, slitage, dålig mastering och usla pressningar, utan är snarare ett komplement till annan rengöring för att komma ett steg närmare optimalt ljud.

Easy to use ultrasonic record cleaner that does a great job on its automatic cycle. Surprisingly quiet too. The cleaning noticeably reduces pops and clicks. The set up instructions can be a bit cryptic so read these carefully on first use. A word of warning our dog is very scared of it on the ultrasonic cleaning cycle - we assume because of high frequency sounds we cannot hear.

Die Humming Guru hat meine Erwartungen bei weitem übertroffen! Die Handhabung ist super einfach, die Reinigung läuft weitgehend automatisch. Im Vergleich zu anderen Methoden/Maschinen, die ich früher genutzt habe, ein echter Gewinn. Die Humming Guru ist relativ leise, doch die Ultraschall Reflektionen, die von der Platte nach außen kommen, können schon etwas störend sein. Ich starte den Waschvorgang deshalb meistens in der Küche, und mache die Türe zu. Da alles zuverlässig und automatisch läuft, ist das absolut unkritisch. Die Ergebnisse sind der Hammer. Selbst alte Platten aus den 60ern und 70ern, die ich seit Jahren nicht mehr spielen wollte, klingen wie frisch gepresst. Und Neupressungen verlieren zuverlässig den Schmodder, der oft nach der Pressung zurückbleibt. Alles in allem eine echte Qualitätssteigerung für die Vinyl Schätzchen...

Buen método de limpieza de vinilos, sólo o con complemento de otros, como máquina con aspiración. Sería de agradecer que tuviera soporte para singles de serie, sin tener que pagar más por ello.
