Pros & Cons
Cons
Worst of all is how it mangles so many caps. Breaks bottle necks and twists when capping, destroying the cap as well. Snapped the neck off 4 bottles while trying to use!
Highlights
Quality
The quality built is good, the plastic feels really sturdy.
Price
It’s of reasonably solid construction for plastic and the price was great.
So if you are starting out, this is probably a good, low cost option for capping bottles while you decide if you like brewing.

The thinner walls at the top of the bottle are too flimsy for this capper and will shear when the arms clamp down
