Can anybody please recommend a good (and hopefully inexpensive) gravel vacuum/aquarium cleaner?

I'm looking for a good gravel vacuum/water cleaner for my 10 gallon goldfish tank. I have a filter in my tank, but unfortunately the water does get dirty pretty quickly. I've owned two gravel siphons before, but they were a pain to get started, and water spilled all over the surrounding area. What's your preferred tank cleaner (preferably less than $20)?
Eheim is the best one I know of. Link below. Unfortunately it's a bit more than $20. :(

Starting a new fish tank can be exciting, but that excitement could quickly fade if we failed to do a crucial first step the right way, and some or all of our fish were to die. In order to keep this from happening, the person who wants a freshwater fish tank in their home or office needs to learn the correct way of getting a new tank set up and ready for a few fishy inhabitants.
We will assume you already have your aquarium, the aquarium gravel, filter, heater, decorations, test kits, and fish food. Did we leave something out? Does this look like it is just about everything you would need to start a new fish tank? Almost, but you are forgetting a few important items. You need an aquarium vacuum, an aquarium glass scrubber, a good-sized fish net, and several five-gallon buckets.
Why do you need to worry about all this stuff when you are starting up a new fish tank? That nice, clean tank is not going to stay that way by itself! It is up to the aquarium owner to do the maintenance on his or her tank, and keep it looking and smelling clean and nice. It can be a lot of work to adhere to a schedule in order to keep a fish tank clean, and this discourages some people from ever owning a nice aquarium.
That’s a shame, because there are products out on the market now that can really help even someone with very little freshwater aquarium fish experience to keep a sparkling tank and healthy fish. One such product is from the EcoBio-Block family of products for your aquarium, and it goes by the name of EcoBio-Stone. The EcoBio-Stone-M is the size that is best for a mid-sized aquarium.
You can also purchase EcoBio-Block in other forms, such as the Pebbles or EcoBio-Stone S for smaller tanks that could go up to twenty gallons in size. An EcoBio-Block Aqua or EcoBio-Stone L is the size you would need for an aquarium that could range from forty gallons all the way up to one hundred gallons.
We're delightful the wrong approach to bullyingPlayground gravel became a weapon. My last friend even lowered her upon, picked up a few pieces of gravel, dropped them at my feet and turned away. The chagrin of aloneness stung worse than the gravel. One day the mob action was at its height.
