about degritter
Degritter is an Estonian company that has built ultrasonic record-cleaning machines in Tartu since 2016. The design goal was a self-contained cleaner that handles the full cycle automatically: ultrasonic cavitation to lift contaminants from the groove, followed by a controlled drying stage, all in one cabinet without the manual fluid-bath setup that ultrasonic cleaning otherwise demands. Metal parts and electronics are made in Estonia. The core product is the Degritter ultrasonic record cleaner, now in its Mark II revision, with a wider-format variant offered for cleaning larger or multiple records. The machines run a 120 kHz ultrasonic frequency chosen to clean without risking groove damage. In the US vinyl-accessory market Degritter sits among ultrasonic and vacuum record-cleaning options from makers like Kirmuss, iSonic, and Pro-Ject's vacuum line, positioned at the premium turnkey end where the machine handles wash and dry without operator fuss. US distribution runs through Music Direct. The brand carries a deep review record for a single-product company: Stereophile covered it in Michael Fremer's Analog Corner #305 and in Brilliant Corners #14, with further reviews in The Absolute Sound, Dagogo, and HiFi Pig, making it a recognizable name to vinyl-focused US dealers. Metal fabrication, electronics, and assembly are all handled in Tartu, Estonia.
