Nicely machined, heavy, shiny chunk of metal. Velvety bottom. Makes the record one with the turntable. Good feedback control. Probably get at least 10 db louder before feedback. Louder than you would normally want to listen. Does what it should! Worth the cash, I would say.

The stabilizer works wonderfully on slightly warped records. Give a more solid sound.

I grew up with vinyl. Over the past decade, many of the new records I've purchased have been warped, which really bugs me, so after buying a Fluance RT85, I found out they make a record weight that supposedly helps flatten warped records.In short: it doesn't.I tried it out on half a dozen warped records, from slightly warped to very warped, and it DID NOT flatten any of them.This Fluance weight actually weighted the center down so much it LIFTED THE EDGE OFF THE PLATTER of many records. It taco bowled them! See My Photos.I like how heavy it is, but beyond the tactile and aesthetic element, I don't see anything of value. In fact, I think making the record edge lift like it does probably makes the needle ride at an angle in the grooves, which would not be a good thing.Also, it is not centered. When I removed it from the box the hole looked off center. After measuring the hole to the edge with calipers, I found it was definitely not centered.The company offered to give me a few bucks back to keep the out-of-round weight, but I had to email them several more times for a week or two before they actually did anything they said they would.
