Good for Loose Hard to Reach Dirt on Things
I had set my expectations too high with this ultrasonic cleaner and really any other small household ultrasonic cleaner. The first thing I wanted to try cleaning was the coffee stained spoon with soap and water but it seemed there was really no change. Scraping the stain off with my fingernail did way more than what the cleaner did. I realized for the price I shouldn't have expected that.<br /><br />Instead these what it's good at are for things with dirt or gunk from our oily sweaty dirty body that gets built up that is hard or near impossible reach with a brush. For me that's been useful as a parts cleaner for my radio control cars mainly plastic parts using a 10 part water to 1 part of simple green.<br /><br />The cleaner without the basket has a max physical capacity of 6x5x1.5" (1.5" max water line) that yep you can fit a CD/DVD mentioned on the product box and product photos in this listing.<br /><br />There is a drain hole at the bottom if there's ever a chance water gets past the top gasket when being dumped out.<br /><br />As another reviewer pointed out there is conflicting information about what can be cleaned with this ultrasonic cleaner and that reviewer is correct. In the included manual does warn not to clean things like glasses and dentures yet the product listing and photos here says you can. These same product photos and information is listed on their shop-beurer website too.<br /><br />In the end these warnings about not cleaning certain things is to protect themselves from any liability if something gets damaged and only using soap and water if one gets injured if using chemicals not in a well ventilated area which I completely understand. So why the conflicting information?<br /><br />Extra technical stuff.<br />It uses a ChuangXin CX-768 stuck to the bottom of the bowl to produce the 43kHz frequency. There's not much information about that part other than it's used in some other ultrasonic cleaners sold in different countries which I assumed priced similarly as this Beurer.
