Very nice build quality, all stainless steel. Easy to use, easy to clean! Excellent results!I started with hot water (~80 C), added a few mL of Dawn dishwasher, worked very well for glasses (those green buildup on the nose piece is gone!) Jewelry came out sparkling clean. For bicycle chain and greasy parts, I used 10:1 of water to Simple Green, worked quite well. OldFactory grease took several cleans, may need a stronger mix or different degreaser. My old (2000+ miles) Shimano Ultegra chain had so much gunk it took forever to remove all the dirt. Kept changing the solution and more dirt/grease came out of the links and rollers! Wow! The chain discolored a bit, probably couldn't withstand the stronger mix of degreaser I used, plus being a year old with weekly normal cleaning (prior to the Ultrasonic) probably did not help, so I tossed the chain. Now, I use KMC, didn't change the silver plate color. Recleaned the KMC chain after several hundred miles, very easy... This product is awesome! Very highly recommended!
