Hey,

Is anyone using an ultrasonic cleaner from ali? Or a cheap one?
Could you recommend me one?

Maybe someone here has experience with these ;-)

Harbor Freight's basic model is around $80 i think and it's worked out well for me, almost a decade now.  if you buy one, I suggest looking up some threads on the topic on Paceline or Bikeforums, there's some good "tips & tricks" to learn about ultrasonic parts cleaning.

I'm using a cheap $20 USD ultrasonic cleaner big enough to fit a bike chain and an $8 USD slow cooker. Immersive waxing doesn't have to be expensive at all. I only do the ultrasonic cleaning on the initial chain degreasing. After I've degreased a chain, I just do a dry towel wipe down before re-waxing.

Found the one I use. The price went up, but maybe it's cheaper on AliEx:

I have a vevor also. Works great for personal use. I'm not running it for hours on end every day. Might not be as great for heavy shop use but I would totally buy again.

I bought one from this shop 6 years ago: https://www.aliexpress.com/store/2817078

I thought I would need a big one, so I took the 30L but it wasn't a good idea after all.
Except that a 52 eagle cassette fits in, I have no usage of so much volume generally and it is too big to warm.
So I put now my stuff in glasses, or plastic bags with hot water and cleaner.
