It does work, but….
This is a good, but not great item. Firstly, it does what is says on the tin…it will clean your vinyl and I guess that’s why I bought it.
Is it a bit flimsy, and would need to be handled with care. My biggest issue is after cleaning a vinyl the clamping system would need to be unscrewed by the Hulk. I tried everything, not tightening it so much, varying the rotation etc, nothing worked. I did see online somewhere that if you put Vaseline on the rubber seals it does make it easier to open, but I would be concerned about the vinyl label in that case.
My final issue, the brushes can not be cleaned with regular water, only distilled water. They need to put a small amount into the package, who has distilled water at home?? Just put in enough to clean them after first use…that will give time for the buyer to get some going forward.
It works, it’s good, and after all my moaning, I will still use it. It does make a huge difference and the cleaning fluid is very good.

A piece broke already
So, I absolutely love the cleaning standard of this...great results...
However, I'd only cleaned about 100 records and the circular centre label clamp startup to crack and break down... The lip around the edge cracked and then piece by piece started to snap off....
I'm prepared to accept that maybe this was a one off but if not, then they really need to use better materials.... not good enough!
I've had to superglue mine back together which is by no means the way forward... It will inevitably break again :/ Will be complaining and asking for a new piece to be sent...

Does the job, a bit "naive" quality-wise
The "LP washing-machine" basically does its job. The supplied solution seems to work well, although I have no previous experience with an alternative for a meaningful comparison.
Quality-wise, the thing is somewhat "cheapo" (e.g. I could not get the plastic legs hold properly in their slots).
Overall, I do not regret the purchase. On the other hand, shoudl I face the need to buy a new machine like that, I'd definitely have a look at other options.
