Cork splitter, messy opener May 5, 2007 Blowfish (CA United States) 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I had high expectations for this product after using Rabbits for years, which open bottles flawlessly. Purchased at Costco locally for several dollars less than Amazon. This product inevitably either splits corks or drills the corks so deep that it spits cork out the other end into the wine. If you don't position the worm directly in the center of the bottle, which is hard to do (since it is retracted inside the opener), it will surely split the cork and then you've spoiled the bottle. I've since stopped using it because of these reasons.
Better than I expected! August 25, 2006 massageya? (way up north) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This product makes opening a bottle of wine effortless. Any wine drinker with Arthritis or Carpal tunnel (like me) should own this. You do need one hand on the bottle and one on the opener to keep them from rotating, then just hold the rocker switch down. It has a sleek look and fits in on your bar or counter. A great gift!
Best there is August 26, 2006 Joseph D. Coons (Bellingham, WA USA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
A friend gave me one of these just like it about a year ago, and I love it. No fuss, no muss, easy out for the cork from the bottle, then the opener quickly discharges the cork. Nothing could be simpler or more reliable. I then bought another identical one (this one) for a cousin's birthday.
Fantastic Gadget October 12, 2006 Barnsu (South San Francisco, CA United States) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This was a surprise gift. A just because I wanted to, gift. Opening a bottle of wine could not get any easier. I don't know why this opener wasn't available sooner, it is such a great gadget. Anyone who enjoys wine should have one of these wonderful gadgets in their household. It is really unbelievable how it so easily removes the cork from the bottle with just a push of a button and then with the reverse button releases the cork. Almost like using an electric screwdiver...
