Safe T Plus vs Roadmaster Steering Stabilizers

All, any pro or cons to the Safe T Plus or Roadmaster steering stabilizers? I am going to put one on our Alante and am looking for opinions.
TIA

I know nothing about the Safe T Plus but am pretty happy with the Roadmaster and just an unofficial observation but it seems to be the most mentioned on here.

I was very happy with Roadmaster's customer service when I started shopping for base plate and tow bar.

They are both the same engineering principles and will give the same results. The Roadmaster has exposed parts which will lead to faster seal wear as the SafeTplus is an enclosed unit. I paid a little more and purchased the SafeTplus.

I installed the Safe T Plus on our prior coach (Thor Challenger). It was a relatively easy install after getting the right tools. It did make a small difference in how the coach handled going down the road.

If you are going to do the install yourself you will need some heavy duty tools such as a good impact wrench, good compressor, and a torque wrench that goes up to 250 foot pounds. A cheater bar might also be needed for use on the torque wrench. I also built some ramps out of 2 x 6 lumber to raise the coach and provide some additional room underneath to work.

X2 on the Roadmaster Reflex. Very happy with it. Out on a trip right now, driving over crappy roads, and saying to myself, this was one of the better modifications I've done to this rig. Was a piece of cake to install, too...

If by chance you have a trip planned close to Atlanta Ga. Safe T Steer will install the Safe T Plus at no extra charge. You just need to make an appointment.

What bar did you go with, and can you update your opinion since then?

Just had Safe-T-Steer installed on our '17 Precept 35S.
Called Safe-T-Steer directly for correct fitment. Was told for my application, they are now recommending the White unit and not the Blue.
Guidance is the Blue is too stiff causing steering issue.
The customer support rep I spoke with said they are in the process of updating web site. April 2021.
