Saint Paul, MN (Vocus) January 15, 2010
The new Jewel Jet Pro steam cleaner, available from Esslinger & Co., St. Paul, MN, is designed to be viewable by customers, but also features a cleaning capacity that’s powerful enough for small shops. Though it’s not intended for heavy-duty commercial jewelry cleaning, it has many features usually seen on such units available with much higher price tags.
The Jewelry Jet Pro boasts a 5 to 10 minute warm-up time, with steam bursts up to approximately 60 psi. It has a left button for steam bursts, a right button for continuous steam, and comes with a detachable foot pedal. The unit uses one liter of regular tap water and includes a stainless steel catch basket, water funnel, measuring fill cup and plastic-coated tweezers.
“Sales associates can wow customers with Jewelry Jet Pro’s cool, Art Deco exterior and capacity for cleaning using the amazing power of steam. But it’s also a traffic builder, because you can use it to remind customers how important it is to regularly bring their precious items in for cleaning,” says owner Bill Esslinger. “Though customers intend to clean their jewelry at home, they often don’t – or they’re apprehensive about damaging it. Offering the Jewelry Jet Pro’s services to customers is one more way for jewelers to demonstrate their professional expertise.”
Routine jewelry cleaning removes the dust, smudges, soil and skin oils that are common on jewelry, especially items worn on the skin. As well, jewelry is frequently exposed to perfumes, lotions, powders and soaps, which can prevent diamonds from sparkling or gold from glowing. "Jewelers can look like heroes by offering to clean a customer’s diamond ring or gold bracelet, while they’re browsing, restoring the items from cloudy and smudged to brilliantly clean. You can also remind them that no chemicals are being used, and that the unit was designed by jewelers.”
JewelJet Pro jewelry cleaner weighs just 6 lbs and stands 12” tall (exact dimensions are: 9" x 11" x 12"), with a shipping weight of 15 lbs. It also features a 1-year limited factory warranty, a U/L listing, and a list price of $250.
