5 out of 5 stars Works very well   May 30, 2008

This brush really seems to get into the grooves with its tiny fibers. The cleaning solution seems to clean without any residue. I used to use the Diskwasher system years ago and the new version shouldn't even be called the same thing. I am glad that I found and bought this one.


2 out of 5 stars a disappointment   May 6, 2008

I bought this item because I'm embarking on that rite of passage into middle age: transferring my LPs to digital files. So I bought a USB-enabled turntable & the record cleaner kit. As is clearly shown in the picture, the kit consists of a pad, pad tray & a 2 oz bottle of cleaning solution. You're supposed to sweep the record with the dry pad, apply 3-4 drops of the cleaning fluid to the edge of the pad, re-sweep & then do a final sweep with a dry portion of the pad. I've encountered at least 3 problems with this product:
1) poorly written/non-updated instructions - you're supposed to sweep the record "in the direction of the arrows on the handle", well, there are no arrows on the handle, I can only hope that the fibers of the pad are not directional
2) inadequate wicking of the cleaning fluid - the 3-4 drops of fluid don't spread out very well &, as a result, there's a tendency to clean only narrow tracks of the record
3) lack of a cleaning tool (or at least some instructions) for the pad itself - where does all that dirt you've cleaned off of the record go? Onto the pad, where it stays until perhaps it's deposited onto the next record.

I can remember (back in the day) buying record cleaning kits that had none of these deficiencies. Apparently the folks that made those products have gone the way of the buggy whip manufacturers...



4 out of 5 stars great for deep-cleaning   April 18, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

The Stanton brush works really well -- maybe a little TOO well.

As opposed to the old trusty Discwasher system, the Stanton felt REALLY digs into the grooves intensely; just one swoop around the disc and one can actually feel the brush pulling on the vinyl as it gets way into the grooves.

While this is an excellent tool for deep-cleaning, I don't think I'll be using it for routine, every-day cleaning -- I worry that it might eventually actually harm the grooves if overused.



4 out of 5 stars Works well, not a home run   April 16, 2008

This does a good job cleaning records, but they left out some items that would have been helpful. There needs to be some sort of brush to clean lint and dust off of the cleaner itself. The tray that it sits in prevents it from drying out quickly, so it becomes damp after heavy use.


4 out of 5 stars Not many options   September 22, 2007

I still maintain a sizable vinyl collection, drawing from it each week for a radio show (I doubt the majority of stations in the country even bother to keep a working turntable). The old Discwasher, now simply a name sold to Phillips Electronics (RCA, General Electric), impresses me less these days than this Stanton brush. Unlike the corduroy material of the Discwasher, it has a felt-like material that appears to penetrate the grooves and pull out more dust than a stiff corduroy wipe. I don't buy, however, the claims either manufacturer makes about "special formulas." When the bottle of liquid runs out, it's silly to purchase another 25 dollar kit. Simply refill it with a 50/50 mix of water and isopropyl alcohol and expect the same results.
