I expected it to be smaller & more sturdy. I was looking for a gift quality, easily portable, sturdy cork screw. I was disappointed and had to buy additional gifts for the recipient because I felt this wasn't enough of a gift on its own.

This corkscrew replaced an earlier model that finally broke after many years. The only thing we were disappointed in, was that the new model didn't have an integrated foilcutter like our old one. Otherwise it is perfect.

The screw pull pocket cork screw that does not have a stand is easier and more comfortable to use.

I like this but it is bigger than the pocket screw pull and it is less comfortable on the hand to use.[...]

Former waitress/Bartender and Flight attendant. I've been looking all over for a wine opening that wasn't too expensive but did a great job and was easy to maneuver. Found it in this product.

After having my husband break numerous different kinds of wine bottle openers at all price ranges I bought this one. He was skeptical at first but says it is easy to use and so far holds up to regular usage.

I find the corkscrew needs a little down pressure to get started but then works smoothly, effortlessly, and quickly. Fun to use.

Everyone I know who has tried this corkscrew, loves it. Once the screw is started it lifts out the cork with minimal effort (and releases it with equal ease). Great for those with diminished hand and thumb strength.

I find this corkscrew to be far easier to use than the Rabbit or any of the other lever types. All you need to do is twirl your finger around and out comes the cork! I bought these for all my wine lover friends for christmas and they all love it also!

I got this opener for my 80+ year old parents and they love it. They had been struggling with other openers because they no longer have enough wrist strength to pry out tougher corks. This opener provides good mechanical advantage and is easy to use.
