It Works! Treasured vinyl brought back to life
Twelve turns on the handle bring treasured vinyl, crusty with mould, back to very good condition. That makes the high price worth it. The surfaces look new and my LPs are now much as they would have been two months after I bought them. (Vinyl sounds better than digital - it’s true)

The difference from dirty to clean is significant
I purchased this elsewhere, but wanted to put a review here for others.The difference between a dirty and a clean record using this device is very significant. I have been cleaning a few records that are 40 to 50 years old and they are playing like new. Perhaps even better than new, as even a new record can contain deposits from the manufacturing process that remain in the groove.The goat hair brushes are excellent. The cleaning fluid that comes with this device works well; however, with a bit of searching (terms like audiophile man) there are further improvements to be found by making up your own solutions and adapting the cleaning method used with this device. I am going to try these.My only niggle is that whilst I gather this version has an improved seal around the label cover, a small amount of cleaning fluid can seap in underneath and cause a little bit of mottling of the label right around its edge. This is the reason I dropped a star. I stress, though, that the audio improvement is so marked that I can live with this. Perhaps, if I had a collector's £500 Beatles album, I might not use it with this device, and instead get it cleaned professionally.Finally, is it value for money? Well, more yes then no. It is expensive for what is an extremely simple device made of plastic, but having used it and hearing the results, I don't regret paying for it at all. It works out cheaper than having each record cleaned professionally at £2 a time when you have a few hundred in a collection.As mentioned in other reviews, this cleans away dirt and grime. There is nothing that can erase physical damage or scratches.I really do recommend this as an excellent way of improving listening enjoyment. The removal of pops and crackles is an opportunity to fall in love again with some of those older albums.

Excellent
I bought this after watching several YT reviews and videos on how to clean vinyl (There are loads) My collection wasn't extremely dirty, but the improvement in quality and sound production is very noticeable after using this.

Turns dirty records sound almost brand new
This is a great product. The differance between a cleaned record with this device and a not a non cleaned record is night and day. It can't fix deep scratches but surface noise drops drastically or disappears.
