Older but very well cared for; functionally it works as well as the 1st day I started using it. The key to maintaining maximum effectiveness (besides cleaning solutions and application/"scrubbing" method) is regularly replacing the felt strips (&/or plastic vacuum tube) depending on amount of use/ "dirtiness" of records cleaned. To that point, this will come with a brand new vacuum tube ($35 if purchased separately).I have conservatively rated this as VG according to the Asylum scale, however, this is super clean and very well-cared in VG+/M- condition overall (you will see I never removed the protective paper from the glass lid). The only *exception* is underneath (which is obviously never seen in use/situ), where you will see I patched up a section of the bottom MDF cover (you MUST remember to drain the tank after so many records, depending on how much fluid is used, lol). Original box & packaging (I believe I still have the manual somewhere; though operation is completely intuitive/straightforward). Asking price includes PayPal & lower 48 State shipping (in addition to the $35 new vacuum tube). Local P/U possible. Nowadays, a new unit costs $950-$1,045; this one works just as well for 1/3 the price. Please check my feedback and buy with 100% confidence.
