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

 Does not last long. December 4, 2008
Michael Wazowski (Germantown, MD)
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. When you serve wine, this may matter. The Metrokane ring doesn't look too awful, but it won't draw any compliments for its appearance.
It is true that this drip stop ring does work as intended, and very well, when it is brand new.
I got this ring as part of a Metrokane kit sold at BBBY (with Metrokane Rabbit cork puller as main item). Now obviously I need a new ring or two - that's how I am here. I see that all alternatives are more expensive... and all feature "felt insert". The insert is "removable and washable" in Wine Line WL-N006 Satin Anti Drip Ring, but it is almost $15, and I'll have to pay shipping. I guess I'll see what they have in stores...
 A must for the red wine drinker September 11, 2008

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.
Well worth the purchase. August 19, 2002

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.
It works! December 25, 2001

I gave this as a gift for Christmas, and it worked like a charm at dinner. Not a drop on the table!
