Durable record vacuum cleaner recommendation?

Another + for VPI. I bought a 16.5 in the mid 1980s and used it for 20 years.  Then a friend included a nearly new version along with other LP gear when he quit playing records due to age.  I sold my original to a friend and continued cleaning with the newer one the past 20 years.

I did mount a whisper fan inside the cabinet because I’d feel heat on the spindle when cleaning 5 or more records at a session.  Now cooler, it just motors (revolves) on.

I began cleaning with a Nitty Gritty prior to the VPI but manual was not practical for more than one record at a cleaning session.

@oberoniaomnia if you have the $$ look at the ClearAudio Double Matrix US. It scrubs, does US and vacuum’s both sides at the same time. Some members here have this RCM. Have read good reviews, not too many negative reviews.

If my RCM stops working I would consider the CA.

The Record Doctor X is half of what the VPI is, plus it'll clean both sides and rotates both directions. It only supports the label area, which I have found to be no big deal, and vacuuming bidirectionally gets all the liquid off. That's with 130 gm vinyl, too. It's loud but it's not going to damage your hearing! I got an ear protector gizmo when I ordered it, but immediately realized that was unnecessary, even though the machine is n a small bathroom. I noticed Crutchfeld has these and others on backorder now. Maybe an order placed now avoids tariffs. VPI likely uses all-American components but is expensive. All thngs (price) being equal, I'd still get the RD. 

I went away from a VPI 16.5 as I had reliability problems with the latest version.(the older models are far more reliable and better built). 
I now use a Nessie, which is not only fairly quiet, but also does a fantastic job. 
Unfortunately, Nessie are not that easy to source in the US anymore, but they are built to last and far superior quality to the latest VPI.

Record Doctor X is not manual spin. Bidirectional motor.
