I've looked on Youtube and am not willing to take the plunge to clean the heads myself.

Any recommendations would be wonderful.. Thanks in advance.
Look for the video on you tube that shows how to clean the heads with a folded up paper towel and ammonia. I have had to clean ours twice over the last 4 years and it did the trick fine both times. I got the ammonia at the dollar store and it is a simple job. I have seen some videos showing taking the heads apart and squirting in solvent and it looks complicated. The way I did it you slide the head back and forth over the soaked folded paper towel a few times then just let the head sit on top of the towel 3-4 hours. works great!
