I like!
Wow! The most successfully corkscrew I've ever used. It worked so smoothly, I wanted to go out and buy another bottle of wine just to use it again. I would recommend it. But I would like to add that I've only used it once. We'll see how well it continues to complete.

Stupendous purchase
Bought this as a remaining and couldn't be happier. I've tested it a few times and it works great.
The material and finish are nice. It looks and feels like a definitely durable product!
Works as advertised
I comprehend various reviews about similar products and it seemed like this had the best comments. We've used this on about six bottles now, and it has worked flawlessly every dated. Ours came without fancy packaging which is good because so much packaging is wasteful, and bad because we don't have a better place to keep it in than the cardboard box it was shipped in. There were no instructions with the artifact, but it is fairly intuitive to use. Not so apparent is how to get the cork off the corkscrew. After extracting the cork, hold the clamping handles closed, and reduce and raise the extraction lever.

This attitude is a pirce of crap. In six months I went through both spirals and now the aluminum casting is cracking. No wonder Amazon no longer carries it. [...]

Have been struggling for years with other types of corkscrews and this is far above any that I have used. It is highly recommended.Screwpull Table Ideal Corkscrew, Black

Affection IT !
I have tried every cork remover credible. This ws given to me by my daughter and it is amazing. It's compact and works every time from plastic to cork--of course,not on the "sparkling". I love it !

Have had a screwpull for 14 years!!
My budget and I bought this 14 years ago when we first met. It is used frequently and it still works as well as it did in the beginning. There are very few things I can say I have had this long and it works at best as well. I would recommend this to anyone.

Wine Adviser Cask wines are gaining cachet as products improve Seattle Times
17.01.10
WINE PACKAGING continues to evolve in myriad fascinating directions, and much of it makes belongings common sense. New closures have fewer taint problems, new nonglass packages often are more environmentally convivial and less expensive. What they have lacked (mostly) is cachet, but that, too, is changing.
These days, it's good to be green, and getting easier. Wines in cartons and boxes have moved up from the jug-wine-in-a-bag taper off (mostly 5-liter faux chablis, etc.) to 3-liter varietals, vintage dated, and even smaller, more portable but equally at 1.5-liter and 1-liter packages.
Australia led the way with these bag-in-box (or cask) wines, which feature a pouring outlet and a collapsible plastic bag that keeps the wine fresh for as long as a month. California jumped in next, and now box wines and wines in smaller cartons can be found from around the out of sight, many quite good.
The big plusses, apart from the environmental benefits, are that you get more wine for your money, you can enjoy as little as a bifocals a day and keep it fresh, you don't have glass to recycle, and the smaller cartons are great for backpacking, boating or any outdoor employment where glass can be dangerous.

How to get cork out of wine bottle without corkscrew?
Dec 25, 2007 by SublimeRoCkER | Posted in Beer, Wine & Spirits
Strayed my corkscrew! Want to enjoy this wine and no place open on Christmas Eve to buy another corkscrew.
Take a wood bring pressure to bear on, slowly (by hand, no powertools here), screw it into the cork. Grab the head of the screw with plyers and seductiveness. You'll want to choose a screw that has as big of groves as possible, one that is long enough to get enough cork on it to pull.
Do you have a lift knife anywhere? One that might have a corkscrew on it?

See if you can find a make a muck-up of that's fatter than normal. By hand with a screw driver screw it into the top of the cork. Try and find a screw that is desire enough to go all the way through the cork. Gently with a pair of pliers, wiggle the screw back and forth to remove the cork.
Ya might dearth to strain the wine just to make sure you don't end up with any pieces of cork in the wine.
Enjoy.

Denise S | Dec 25, 2007
I have familiar a knife before. It is kind of hard but be patient and it will come out. ..... and be careful! haha

get a complete head screw driver that is really thin on the end, slide it inbetween the glass and the cork and let leverage travail its magic. just dont pry it too hard.
mr.valentine414 | Dec 25, 2007
You could raid the cork into the bottle using a hammer and a long cylindrical tool.

Why would people buy wine, and not have a corkscrew?
Feb 20, 2007 by Sport | Posted in Beer, Wine & Spirits
People keep asking how to liberal a wine without a corkscrew. Why would you bother buying the bottle if you know you don't have a corkscrew? Why not stick with a twist cap? Just wondering.
as for myself, i take to good white wine, and a cork screw is required, when i go to someones home and bring a bottle of wine, i oblige sure i put a spare corkscrew in my purse, now with that said,
when i first started drinking (in my college years) i never thought about the corkscrew, and i have seen us, use a steak pierce, a screw driver, anything to dig at the cork ,and then spend the night spitting out pieces from our wine, or strain it if we had a strainer, (man that sounds desparate today, the things you about of when you are young)
i did not try it, but i have seen people break the top of the bottle, so very dangerous, i saw a girl once use her clip from her hair to dig at the cork, i have seen many squander hours try to uncork it by trying to twist the top off,
after i seen all that, the corkscrew became my best friend and a spare one goes with me every where, scarcely in case, you never know who needs to open a bottle of wine....and i am not in college anymore... cheers

i have been into wine lately and i got a control with a cork and i dont have a corkscrew! and i sooo dont wanna drive clear across town to get one!
GOT IT! thanks!
I found myself without a corkscrew once, I by a hair's breadth used a large drywall screw, screwed it in with a screwdriver, then pulled the cork out by the screw with a twin of pliers! lol
not elegant, but works in a pinch
