I'm looking at this small parts washer. Has anyone used this type? They are around $100.00 Cdn.

I had one, lasted a couple years and then the switch quit working so I "hot wired" it so plugging it in turned it on and off. pump let go shortly after and I jumped up to a big one from princess Auto. I used a biodegradable water based degreaser as I wasn't sure if the pump could handle solvents. it worked really well.

Thanks Ross. I want to try to keep this as compact as possible for space reasons. Personally I'm a little leary about 'Power Fist' products from Princess Auto. Is it the model with the drum below it? How's that one working for you?
