Hornady Lock-N-Load Sonic Cleaner – Clean Cases, Gun Parts and Equipment – Removed Carbon Residue, Tarnish and Oxidation – 1.2 L Tank, Black

My husband didn’t feel the need to have one for of these but I bought it as a Christmas gift. The look on his face when he used it the first time was priceless . Works fabulous

Very happy with this. Works like it's supposed to. Makes less work for me.

Nice small unit = GoodLongest timer setting too short = 😔Good price $99, easy to use, but pita to spill out the used liquid. Have to be careful to not get electronics wet. This unit is not heated like the 2L model but costs $60 less so big deal use hot water or other. I made up my own mix of cleaning liquid as too cheap to buy the high dollar cleaner. Works good !

Of course this cleaner is small, look at the dimensions. I was not surprised at all when I opened the box. It is small, but I was expecting that. The only thing I dislike about it is the high-pitched grating sound it makes when it runs. It is still quieter than other cleaners though. It is VERY easy to use and very effective. It took about 8 8-minute cycles to completely clean my 45acp brass, primer pockets and all. I would recommend this product!

it's not great but it gets the job done you just have to running the case 10 times not 3 like Hornady recommends.

Wow what a cleaner! It can clean your brass fast and no need to then manually clean the primer pocket it will clean there too if you remove primer first. Great tool for job.Want to clean other stuff too if it works this good!

Works great - especially when you accidentally order it twice for your husband because he sends you two different links for the same thing and you don't pay attention and just order it anyway. Taking up valuable shoe space in my closet. =/

After two days of ownership, I have now used the cleaner several times and must say I am disappointed. I knew the unit was small, but was shocked when I actually took it out of the package. It is tiny. It will not hold many pieces of brass. Hornady says 200 .223. I do not believe it will clean that many- possibly hold that many if you VERY CAREFULLY stack them, but after a hundred or so in the basket, it just didn't clean well. Completely filling the basket resulted in no cleaning action at all. Filling to the "full" line still meant many cycles to clean the brass. Using the 40:1 ratio for the Hornady cleaning fluid, the (already tumbled) brass was only marginally cleaner inside than it was after tumbling. Increasing the solution to water ratio to 20:1 and running through three more cycles delivered what I would consider reasonably clean brass. Some primer pockets still had small amounts of goo however. Keep in mind, this brass had already been tumbled and was clean on the outside already. I had already used a primer pocket tool to get the chunks out. This batch of brass would be considered best case scenario for cleaning.I will admit, it did put a shine on the outside of the brass that I did not have before - the brass really glows (on the outside) after a few cycles. I learned however, that this is likely a function of the solution alone. Just soaking some brass without sonic cleaning delivered nearly the same results.After several cleaning cycles, the unit was hot. I mean HOT. Hornady says to let it cool after three cycles. I had 500 or so pieces of .223 to clean. I can see that taking all day and a lot of futzing with. (the maximum timer setting is 480 seconds-8 minutes)APPARENT PRODUCTION CHANGE:The unit I received has a different basket than the one that most reviewers (on other sites) trash for not having a handle. MINE HAS TWO HANDLES THAT ALLOW FOR LIFTING THE BASKET OUT OF THE SOLUTION EASILY.Positives:' Small' Quiet' Relatively inexpensive' Hornady solution puts a brilliant shine on outside of brassNegatives:' Low capacity' A single cycle at the maximum timer setting is too short to clean anything-by Hornady's admission. They recommend three or four cycles. Why not just allow for a longer cycle and not have to keep going back and restart it?' Lid is not hinged so you have to find somewhere to put it while putting brass in and taking it out. No huge deal, but it builds condensation during use. As soon as you set it down on the counter, you have a messy counter as it drips. If you set it down inverted to prevent this, it runs off the side as it is not flat on the top. Picky I know, but easily avoided with hinges on the lid.After cleaning a couple of hundred cartridges, I do not believe this unit is for me. I will likely return it. (thankfully it was purchased from Amazon)
