It's pretty noisy, first time I turned it on it scared the crap out of me. I shut it off real fast kind of sounds like sparks were flying out of the tank.
Been a while since the original post, and I appreciate all the answers, even the ones that had nothing but content.

I've decided to stick with my tumbler because it works fine, does a few hundred 45 brass at a time, and is pretty cheap.

The fancy stuff just has more to break, and I can't see that it makes me more efficient or the brass more clean.
