This is a great product. The price is very reasonable and the results are outstanding if you follow the instructions. I like that I can clean three records at once. It may be a bit of work to get a record properly cleaned, but it's worth the effort. I plan to just take my time and go through my record collection bit by bit.

Too much of a ritual to execute the complete treatment. Good results, though.

The only issue here is the "wishie-washey" comments/replay from Kirmuss as to the Surfactant as far as the white residue (clearly seen with the purchase vs the replacement solution/liquid). I had better results with the included solution/liquid vs the replacement (this makes no sense and I'm afraid I'm going to have to call BS as to the response given for reasons). I followed a blog on-line and was able to get better results from making a solution/liquid from one of the suggestions...

So far I have cleaned about 50 plus records and I must say, this product works as advertised. I am very pleased with the ease of use and set up, as well as the results. Records appear both visually cleaner and sound better. Surface noise has been drastically reduced. The only complaint, and it is not really a complaint, but I have almost gone through all of the provided surfactant. (Already placed an order for more so I am not giving up on this) Also a huge thank you to Upscale audio and their great team.

After running several records, both ancient and newer through the Kurmiss system, the results are nothing less than astonishing! Processed a Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks, "Striking it Rich" record that I purchased in 1976 and have played at least 250 times often in "difficult" environments. The results when played are astounding! For an album that I know by heart, I heard a presence, deeper soundstage, percussive impact, clearer vocals, and instrumental detail that I never knew existed. Although the process is admittedly time consuming, the results are clearly worth it. Thanks to Upscale Audio for making this product available at an attractive price, and for the support as I have built my immensely satisfying system. Have nothing but praise for both the Kurmiss restoration system and Upscale Audio. Bravo!
