$100 False bottom vs $38 false bottom

[bvanderhaar]

I'm planning on transitioning to a stainless steel kettle (15G) for mashing and looking at false bottoms.

I have a domed one right now in my cooler, like this:
ProFlow False Bottoms. They are $38.

It looks like other ones that are flat are closer to $100 - Spike (my most likely kettle source) and/or Norcali false bottom.

I'm more concerned about stuck sparges rather than efficiency. Couple dollars of extra grain is worth avoiding a stuck sparge at this point in my brewing process. Is the upgrade worth $70? I can buy a lot of grain with $70...
