Yes I have been using one for a few months now. It is excellent. My previous machine was a VPI 16.5 and whilst it also cleaned very nicely there were two major drawbacks.

Firstly it only cleaned one side at a time which meant it was slow and made the other a little dusty when you flipped it over.

Secondly it was very noisy.

IMHO, a cleaning machine which requires so much effort as to make you not use it often is rather self-defeating.

The Audio Desk Systeme cleaning machine is small and compact, cleans both sides simultaneously and requires no hands on approach at all. Plonk in the LP press the button and hey presto go and do something else. The cleaning is as good as a normal cleaner but much more convenient. Best of all you don't need to stand there brushing the record. It also doesn't overheat like the VPI would. You can clean 20/30 records in a row and it doesn't mind.

All in all a great cleaner, quieter than a 16.5, good looking and easy to use.

Highly recommended.

I really wish that I could drop the coin on a machine like this.

I HATE cleaning records... ESPECIALLY now that I have using a two step cleaning fluid. TAKES MORE THAN TWICE AS LONG.... AGH!!!

Same here, I agree it is a pain. I use the disc doctor record cleaner and then I use distilled water as the rinse. I have a vpi 16.5 record cleaner. It is well worth it however.
