I have one of these. Highly recommended (not just for knives).
Unless you like pressing buttons every few minutes, I'd recommend against the one I got. I'd look for one with a heater that doesn't go above ~150f, has automatic shutoff after a set time, and has a long maximum cycle on the cleaner.
I use [this one] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009B2BIKY/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1). It has a heating element and the timer runs for a max of eight minutes.
I've found that a little over three hours of cycling (about 40 cycles) in the cleaner steeps about the same as two weeks conventional. I transfer my juices to glass bottles before running in the cleaner. My cleaner is in the kitchen, so I run it whenever I'm in the room, turning on the heat every two or three cycles.
I usually just soak my rebuildables in a glass of isopropyl alcohol, but sometimes I'll stick the glass into the cleaner's water tank (filled) for a few cycles, though other than the drip tips I can't claim that it makes any big difference in cleaning.
Be careful with plastic clear pieces, they can etch and become cloudy with repeated cleanings, though being diligent with changing the cleaning solution may mitigate that.
I have a cheap 2.5L one. Enough to do an 11-32 cassette and chain at a time. Great widgets.
Add a little bit of Rock'n'Roll Miracle degreaser to the water, turn it on and walk away and do other things than scrub. You really don't need anything that aggressive/toxic, people use Simple Green--but that is really overkill IMHO.
I know you asked for a higher end one, but [THIS] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009B2BIKY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_URbhybGESJPT4) is what I have and I couldn't be happier with it. It's the same one Hornady sells but without the upcharge for their logo.
Buy this and a 5gal bucket of purple power and you're g2g

It's pretty damn good. 8 minute cycle, and the heater gets scolding hot with a quickness.
Have had it for over a year now and still works as good as new. I use it frequently.
