What do you use for a transom saver?

(1/2) > >>

PhishingPhreek:
I have a 225 Mercury Outboard and I'm looking into a new transom saver. The one I currently use magically broke a few years ago while at the upholster shop. I've gotten to work since them because I wasn't using the boat much, but now that I'm going out a few times a month I would like one that won't snap out of nowhere...

Historically I've always used these types of savers: Attwood Heavy Duty Transom Saver


But I've been leaning towards getting one of these types.... Attwood OMC Swivl-Eze Lock N' Stow


What do you use on your boat? Has anyone used both of these and like one over the other?

Razor:
I have the swivl-eze one on current boat, had the other one on a previous boat. I prefer the swivl-eze  because it doesn't transfer all the impact from the trailer to the outboard.

How long have you had it? What's your experience with the rubber stoppers getting ruined? That seems to be the biggest complaint with people who gave it negative reviews. Sometimes I can't trust someone who gives a purchase 1 star when the only complaint they supply is one piece of a product.

OneBlade:
I use swvl ease as well. Works fine, smaller than the other one and less parts
