Easily the best bottle opener I've used December 20, 2007
This opener works flawlessly. This item couldn't be easier just as long as you read the instructions once.

Remove the foil from the bottle with the provided foil cutter. Lift the large level upwards and simply set this on top the bottle. Squeeze the lower handle which controls the gears and also holds the bottle. Pull the arm down once and pull the arm back up. As long as you're holding the lower lever it will slide easily in, lock the screw, then pull the cork out. Release the lower lever and remove the opener from the bottle.

Afterwards you simply pull the lever back down without the bottle and back up again and the cork is removed from the opener. This is a fantastic gift to anyone who drinks wine with any frequency. The unit is very sturdy and looks great in bronze or chrome.

Great gift for wine enthusiasts! December 5, 2007
Got this as a gift from my brother. I love it because it has given me some independence - I don't have to wait for my husband to open a bottle of wine for me! We've had it for 3 years and have had no problems. I've recommended this item to party guests who noticed how easily I opened up bottles of wine.

Best cork remover I have used September 21, 2007

Never mind the previous review, they couldn't put a round peg in a round hole if they had to and must not have read the instructions. Don't be fooled by cheap imitations. This is the real deal. More $ but worth it. We have had this style for over 3 years and it has worked flawlessly. Over the years we have purchased cheaper versions to give as gifts and been over to friends homes that have the cheezy ones and none of them work as good as this one. Our reason for buying this one is for a gift and a gift that will keep giving for years to come.

DO NOT Buy This!!! March 5, 2007

Save yourself the trouble. Good news: The corkscrew is very slick so it slides easily into the cork. Bad news: The corkscrew is very slick so it slides easily OUT of the cork, leaving the cork itself undisturbed in the neck of the bottle. Waste of money.
