Product Description: It's an art form, uncorking and pouring a bottle of wine without getting a single drop on the table. This clever little device won't help you uncork, but it will definitely stop the drip.
Amazon.com Review: There's really nothing worse than opening a great bottle of wine, enjoying the first glass, and then realizing that the wine has dripped down onto the tablecloth. Metrokane's drip-stop ring lets every enophile stop worrying about drips. The drip-stop ring is the ideal method for keeping wine from spilling out the top of an opened bottle after pouring, keeping your spills from becoming stains. It fits on almost every size bottle, and has a spring action mechanism that makes sure it stays snug around the neck. Solidly constructed of sturdy plastic, its thick ring of felt in the interior should catch spills for years. --A.J. Rathbun

Rating: - Does not last long.
My only issue with this item is that it didn't last very long. After about a year of very moderate use, the lining degraded and started coming off. To be fair, perhaps I should've been rinsing and drying it after each use, but somehow it just felt like not the best use of time. And now that I think about it, I am not that sure that it would've lasted longer if washed...
A more minor thing - this ring, although cheaper, does not look nearly as nice as those pewter or silver-plated ones. ... Read More
Rating: - A must for the red wine drinker
I bought 8 of the rings for gifts. Everyone who drinks or serves wine agrees the drip stop ring helps when pouring wine and keeping the wine running down the bottle. Simple, inexpensive and so practical.
Rating: - Well worth the purchase.
I purchased this in hopes that I wouldn't have to continually wipe the wine drop sliding down the bottle and prevent wine stains on my white counter top...it works great! For the price, you can't beat this gadget. There are alternatives however. I have seen the round discs that you can curl and insert halfway into the top of the bottle, which creates a thinner edge, preventing the "run down" effect.
Rating: - It works!
I gave this as a gift for Christmas, and it worked like a charm at dinner. Not a drop on the table!
