Anyone bought a cheap ATF flushing machine?

Hello

I like to do as much as I can myself and can do most things now. Looking at gearbox servicing and I've seen a couple of flushing machines for £3-500 (I'm VAT registered). I have 3 of the 8 speed ZF boxes plus a couple of automatic Freelanders in my ownership.

Two names seem to be Neilsen CT0423

And the Welzh

Anyone bought one and doing this themselves? I realise not for hard professional use, but for a few cars to keep healthy?

The cheaper machines lack pressure regulation for the refill side of the flush procedure, and this is where damage can occur

The machine may well be cheap, but a repair caused by said machine will most likely not be... My D3 Build Thread
