Which still would you recommend a couple on the market that seem similar at the moment

Nothing against your products but in answer to your question, I'd recommend building your own still after deciding if you want to build a pot or column still.
There are a lot of easy designs out there.
For something like vodka I'd recommend a vapour management still, not a Coolant management still that the brew shops sell.

I would only recommend the manufactured stills as they have been tested to ensure the right alcohol is being produced at the right temperature

I'd recommend people learn the differences between stills and buy or make the best to suit their needs.

http://homedistiller.org/

Search for the differences between CM (coolant management), Most HB shops sell these, LM (liquid management), my still and VM (vapour managment)

Post a question on the CM stills on the forum and see what sort of feedback you receive.
