Forever stems; to buy or not to buy?

[Tobias Lutz]

@Tobias Lutz , didn't you link to some "off brand" acrylic stems on the Bay awhile ago? Or was that someone else?
I remember them being cheaper, but don't know how they work.

I did, and they work fantastically well, unfortunately, I'm not seeing them listed on his site right now:

Bummer.
Do they tighten the draw like the Forever Stems do?

If the forever stems tighten the draw, I'm out. One of the reasons I love cobs is how open their draw is without a filter.

Really? That always bugged me. I like the draw on a briar better, and that's what the stems do to the cobs.

Well at least I'll be saving some money now! Wide open draw is what makes a cob so boss IMO.

Thanks for the feedback.

I find no discernible difference between them and the Forever stems except that they lack the trademark "button" from the latter.
