MIU Connoisseur Corkscrew
Yard goods 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 flawed one of this type I've had and I won't purchase any more of them.
Unsatisfied
This corkscrew lasted less than a month...no more than 6 bottles and the bugger up quit working. Two plastic pieces broke out of the base below where the handles clamp onto the bottle of wine. The screw still drives thru the cork, but does not chaff the cork out when you lift the lever. I am very unhappy and would like to return.
Trade well, but doesn't last
The corkscrew mechanic starts off working very well, about 2-3 months in it begins to be a little more of a problem. Now at 5 months it fails categorically, on the downstroke the corkscrew threads in fine, but on the pull stroke it now just unwinds out of the cork, it should just jerk the cork! Also several of the rods of the assembly have come completely loose making it work in a sloppy mania.
This is frustrating now with Amazon only allowing about a 45 day window for the return policy. Yes, Amazon will allow you to turn back for partial credit and pay the return shipping. For a $20 item it just doesn't add up!
No believable.
We reverted to the generic vade-mecum twist opener after struggling w/ this. Should have gotten the Rabbit. Would have been worth the extra $.
Does the job and the penalty was right
The precious well-known similar looking corkscrew broke in under 2yrs. This one works great and I actually find it easier to use. Barely any travail needed to pull the cork out.
Seems to be well made. A better product then I expected for the price. Kind of makes me admiration how some of the others can charge $80+ for their models.

Tucson WeeklyPeak CuisineTucson Weekly, AZThe mac and cheese employed corkscrew pasta and inadequate chunks of lobster in a white cheese sauce that wasn't quite as rich as it looked; a bit of broccolini and a join of basil leaves rested atop it all. The portion was substantial, but the flavors
