Anyone know how the prices compare on these units?
Diamond ball polishers are higher than giraffe pu$$y.
All of the machines you mentioned will do a fine job.
The Ballstar cleaners I've seen only take one half set of balls at a time. IMHO, that is a major point against that machine.
I've seen the Diamond machine at some major tournaments. It appears to be built like a tank and I'm sure it does a great job.
I own a Bludworth cleaner and it does a great job for me. They are also used at some poolrooms I frequent and it works well for them too. What more can I say? :thumbup:
whats your experience ???
which would you buy??

I own a diamond ball polisher and it does a good job. If you want something to look good in your den/mancave then diamond is the way to go. If u just want ur balls cleaned and then ur gonna put it in a closet, build ur own. the balls cant tell the difference. Plus i dont know what im gonna do when the pads finally get worn out and dirty on this thing. Theyre not replacable like the ballstars are.

Diamond Pro Ball Polisher, Plug it in, set the timer and walk away. SPIRALS THE BALLS AS THEY ROTATE. Extremely quiet operation. Balls will not fly out. Carpet is secured with Velcro for easy replacement.
how often do you need to replace pads and cleaner
what is the volume of your play??
im in a home table environment playing 5-6 hours a week (overestimating)
since on the weekend i go to the pool room
how long will a pad acleaner last me??
I have had the Bludworth cleaner for at least 3 or 4 years and I haven't had to replace the pads yet and they still look to be in great shape.
Similar to you, I play on my home table 5-6 hours per week and I clean balls at least once or twice a week.
The cleaning fluid that comes with the unit is a concentrate. It gets mixed with water and I put it in a spray bottle. You only have to use a small amount with each cleaning and if the balls aren't too dirty, you don't really have to use it. I'm still working on the small bottle of concentrate that I got with the unit when I bought it.
BTW, the poolroom I frequent most has a Bludworth cleaner that is many years older than mine and it is going strong after cleaning balls for a 20 table room daily.
