Wondering what most people prefer. Glass eye dropper bottles or plastic bottles. I grew tired of leaky glass eye dropper bottles and went back to plastic. CHEERS!
Glass or plastic bottles

I started with glass but went to plastic for dripping convenience. Mostly. I DIY and the big problem with plastic is that it retains the juice aroma. So I leave the labels on after I clean them out and try to reuse them for something at least close if I don't want to refill with the same recipe.
ETA: anything larger than 15ml or a few 30ml plastics are stored in glass. The backup and long term storage, and base mixes, and etc.
I've used coffee filters to remove odors from plastic containers. Wouldn't this work the plastic bottles?
I placed a coffee filter in the plastic container and sealed it for a couple of days. Then removed the coffee filter and the smell was gone. Others have mentioned using newspaper to do this also - mainly on food containers. I would think (but haven't tried it for e-liquid bottles) that you could place a section of coffee filter in the bottle folding a bit over the top to allow easy removal and seal it with the cap for a couple of days?
I personally prefer glass bottles with droppers so that I can look like a little mad scientist
I mainly use 50ml bottles - the type made of rubbery plastic frosted white material;
I also have a 10ml ucan; just too small to be practical.

At first I didn't care for glass, but I got these blue cobalt ones and the lids are tight and the eyedripper is excellent on those. So I'll probably just get more of those. I was using both as I diy, and do love the convienence of the plastic bottles, but I fear them leeching after so many uses. As for smell using the plastic, I do what VNeil does and keep similiar mixes in those bottles.
Used both. Kinda like dripper for drip tank but I don't mind the plastic bottle either
I prefer glass. The plastic bottles tend to be too leaky imho.

Always glass. I hate plastic to me it makes my vApe taste stale for some reason, guess I'm a glass snob lol
I've never bought a juice that came in a plastic bottle. Glass looks and feels a lot better and I generally avoid plastic containers when I can. I never take the bottles with me so I've never experienced any leaking.
I prefer glass. I've had 2 bottles leak heavily and 1 completely empty in my bag, all 3 plastic, plus a several minor leaks in plastic. I've never had an issue with glass. If I buy a juice in plastic I transfer it into an old glass bottle from another juice.
I use only glass bottles but have a stash of old plastic bottles
for when I give away my DIY juice to friends because they weigh less
so I save $ on postage.
I prefer bottles w/o the dropper as those are never really air tight
and I use a blunt nose syringe to refill tanks. I use droppers when I drip
