Stainless Bottle Stoppers

[sandking]

I've tried searching and haven't come up with any reviews on the Craft Supply Stainless Teardrop stoppers. I'm sick of the Penn State ones that fall apart and I can never get them to sit nicely in a bottle. I see Ruth has some great feedback, but I'm putting a CS order together today and wanted to know if anyone else uses their stopper. I kind of like the look of the teardrop.

Any help would be appreciated.

I purchased one of their starter kits w/mandrel etc. Altho not stainless, they're a good stopper. Can't see where anything could be better other than being made of stainless instead of being coated.

I've used the droplet stopper in both chrome and stainless.

I like the shape and the finish. The droplet shape lets more of the stopper base sit *in* the bottle instead of showing on top.

Ruth's stopper does an even better job of emphasizing the turning rather than the stopper base. I think they are also better if you are turning smaller stoppers.

For my personal taste, I think Ruth's stoppers look better in the bottle, but the droplets look better on "display". I prefer the seal on the droplet stoppers as well.

Your mileage may vary.
