What model cleaner do you have?

Good question - I'm curious as well. I'm planning to use my Harbor Freight coupon on Memorial Day for one of these.

Crusty stuff can take several cycles but the parts always winds up spotless in the end.

good ol harbor freight . 50 bux if you mix up the coupons right . i havent checked on the service plan with them but for a few bux more you get a good extended warranty . this one is a couple of years old and is still rockin.

I usually add a little simple green to the mix. Helps get things cleaner.

We have this one and the next step up here at work. Owners son uses water and water alone. I will look to purchase both once he begins to believe that neither works for crap. meh heheh
Will keep the Simple Green 50/50 in mind.

Simple Green can cut way down. 50/50 is too strong. I'd got 10 to 1 with water.
