A parts washer unit including an aqueous cleaning fluid storage receptacle which can be easily exchanged with a like receptacle by the user of the unit. The unit includes a injection molded plastic base for supporting the receptacle and a sink. The base includes an upper portion configured to support the sink from a fixed work surface, and a lower portion configured to receive the receptacle. The lower portion includes side walls to cammingly guide the receptacle in a lateral direction and a bottom wall configured with an inclined cam surface leading to a generally horizontal receptacle support surface to cammingly guide the receptacle in a longitudinal direction. The bottom wall contains channels that form ribs sufficiently spaced to provide structural rigidity and minimize heat transfer from the receptacle to the fixed work surface.
