I bought mine for $3500. New. Been using it for 2 years.

My point is that unless you are cleaning something small with very little on it (ie. casings) you are wasting your money. That is just my opinion maybe but again our experience was the cheapo ones did nothing on automotive parts for us. It was less of a hassle to wash by hand with solvent than to screw with the ultrasonic bench top deal we had. Maybe they have gotten better over the past couple of years but we saw no point in using ours when it only took off the stuff you could lightly wipe off with a rag.
