    Pam Your initial gut feeling is correct. The cheap ones usually end
    up being  costly as now you have to buy another one ( which you
    should have begun with). 

    They are good for almost nothing. The Transducers, Heaters and Timers
    are the guts of your Ultrasonic. The  rest is all shell. 

    These items alone make up the bulk of cost and rest is all labor.
    The  Chinese can save you on labor but they tend to use cheap parts.
    I would not buy  anything that cost less than $200. 

    As anything less expensive is questionable. 

    Crest makes a good ultrasonic cleaner in Malaysia and has a good
    market  review. 

    L&R, Gem Oro, Sonic4, Otto Sonic, Health sonic, Branson,  Sonicor
    are other US Brands. 

    Elma is a German manufacturer now priced out of the market due to
    Dollar  rate.
