Parts Washer Recs

Anybody own and use one? I've been spraying dirty parts down for years with brake parts or carb cleaner on cardboard but would like to get a portable tabletop solvent based one.

I rented one for a company I managed but it wasn’t as useful as I thought it would be.
Turns out there aren’t too many parts that fit between “just wipe clean, who cares” and hydraluic internals way too precise for parts washer. I don’t think there is any difference between brands.
If you have tons of space and want to keep a pristine workspace, they would be good for cleaning hand tools.

I bought the Harbor Freight full size one but upgraded the pump and put a filter on it. Bought a 5 gal drum of parts solvent from Tractor Supply. It's nice for the big parts and does the job, but I don't use it as much as I thought I would. Mostly because I have to drag it out of the storage shed to use it. I still like my brake cleaner in a can, but it is creeping up in price. JEGS has a 5 gal. bench top one for $65. I would probably use the bench top (or even bucket top one) more.
