Tools and Hardware Reviews of Haier HU335W Ultrasonic Cleaner
Customer Review: Too weak to clean anything
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this knowing that there are very few home ultrasonic cleaners that can do the job that manufacturers describe they can do. I was right. This one failed to vibrate any dust or residue off from my dirty KEYS, let alone rings and necklaces. The power is just too weak. I have used an industrial-powered ultrasonic cleaner on anything from watches to rings to eyeglasses, and the effect is amazing! After a couple of items the entire pool of water became muddied. When I used this ultrasonic cleaner on a handful of jewelry, the water remained pristine.
My advice is unless you're willing to shell out $500 for a real ultrasonic cleaner, you're better off just going to the jeweler to get your jewelry cleaned.
Customer Review: Very Simple and Easy to Use
Summary: 4 Stars
This is very simple and easy to use. It is advisable to use hot water for ultrasonic cleaners (around 150F). You may need to add a little soap or ammonia to make it work best. Water alone is not sufficient.
- It does work, but don't expect it to work like the professional jeweler uses
- Big enough to hold eye glasses
- Not an eyesore, it actually looks nice. It has a soothing blue LED light inside.
- It comes with a plastic rack for easy removal of your jewelries
- At 35W, it consumes less energy than a light bulb
- Very affordable
Rooms for improvement:
- The 3-minute cycle is not enough. An adjustable timer would be nice.
Customer Review: Worked well... while it worked.
Summary: 2 Stars
This product worked extremely well -- that is, while it was working. After 3 months it stopped turning on when you pressed the button.
That being said, it did a wonderful job cleaning channel set baguette and round stones. It really removed the grime between and left the wedding band and engagement rings sparkling like new. My husband also used to clean his glasses in it, and it also worked well on my water resistant stainless watch with diamond accents. The capacity on this cleaner is a plus.
I was truly disappointed that the machine ceased working, but this time around will probably try another product with a higher average rating than this one.
Customer Review: Pathetic Cleaning Power before it Died Altogether
Summary: 2 Stars
I'm wearing plastic InvisAlign "aligners" on my teeth (adult orthodontics) and was using this (so called) ultrasonic "cleaner" on them. First off, it has a timer that keeps the "cleaner" on for about three minutes. I quickly learned that three minutes was never getting the job done. So I developed a routine of hitting the button every time I passed for about a half hour each evening. Even this wasn't doing a complete job and I ended up scrubbing them with a toothbrush every few days. Thankfully this "cleaner" just stopped working one day (bought is in March -- died in October -- 7 month lifespan). Now I'll try getting one that actually does its job.Customer Review: Didn't Work For Me
Summary: 1 Stars
After hearing how Russian Doctors use sound to clean their hands before surgery, and how som Counterfiters used sonic dental cleaning devices to remove the ink from one dollar bills, I was looking forward to sonic cleaning machines for the home.This one didn't clean my dentures at all. When I tried my eye glasses, they wouldn't even fit completely in the tray. It didn't clean them either. I tried my Silver Medalion, and Bronze Challenge Coin. They looked the same coming out as they did going in.
Using Sound to clean things is a great idea, it's a shame this product doesn't do the job.
