First impressions? This stainless steel ultrasonic cleaner LOOKS like a beast. The 3L capacity had me dreaming of cleaning bike chains, jewelry, and even greasy car parts all at once. But reality hit different.

The good: It does clean! My jewelry came out sparkling, and it handled light grease on small tools decently. The digital controls are straightforward (though the BEEP is obnoxiously loud—why so aggressive?).

The meh: Heating takes FOREVER. I now microwave water like I’m making ramen before pouring it in. Also, the drain hose might as well be decorative—it doesn’t fit the unit at all.

The bad: For tough jobs? Forget it. My husband’s crusty carburetor parts laughed at this thing. And after two uses, mine started blowing fuses like it was celebrating Christmas early.

Final verdict: It’s fine for delicate items if you’ve got patience (and spare fuses). But for serious cleaning? Back to the drawing board.
