Amazon.com Product Description
The next best thing to an in-house sommelier, this professional-quality wine opener offers the same impressive performance and stylish design as corkscrews that cost far more. Made from durable, nickel-plated, zinc alloy with easy-grip, ergonomic handles, it uses metal gears to extract corks in seconds. The entire process requires minimal effort, and best of all, there are never bits of mangled cork floating around in the bottle afterwards. This MIU France wine opener comes with an extra corkscrew, an attractive presentation stand, and a foil cutter to prepare bottles for opening. This product is dishwasher-safe, and has a lifetime warranty.

1 out of 5 stars poorly made   June 2, 2010
Christina Mcevoy (northern calif)
3 bottles seems to be the maximum use you will get out of this opener. I've owned 2 and will not ask for another replacement. Very poorly made. ...i think the other reviewers ARE smoking something funny. ...or the other reviewers are the sellers in disguise.

The first one I purchased broke; it is pretty shabby material. They give you an extra corkscrew but be careful. I would not try to replace it since there are no instructions and there are some very small springs. It does not work well on artificial corks. Amazon was great and replace my first one I am only using it on real corks and so far so good.


4 out of 5 stars Good cork puller   April 17, 2010

We had a previous rabbit cork puller and it worked slightly better than this one. On the other hand it broke after only a few years of light use. So this is a pretty replacement. Our only finding is that it is rather hard to make the final movement to remove the cork from the puller, but otherwise it works just fine.

I bought this to replace a well used Professional Corkscrew sold by Cosco. It looked identical so I bvought it. BAD Move. It opened three bottles and broke. Wow what a deal! The cost to open the bottle cost more than the bottle. Please do not waste your money on this one!

Good thing it was this cheap because in less then a year it stopped working. I'm back to using the old fashion twist kind. This is the second one of this type I've had and I won't purchase any more of them.
