 - Perfect wine saverI had been given this product as a gift and feel in love with it. Many is the time there is left over wine in the bottle. This product will save the wine, by removing all the excess air. I have since given this as gifts to my wine loving friends. I even take it on vacation!!! Perfect if you want to have just one glass of wine and save the rest for an other time. Rating: - Yes it WORKS!I was apprehensive on purchasing this at first, but then I had to try it as I was sick of either trying down down a bottle of wine quickly or else putting the cork on backwards (it always swells up at the down end after popping it out). And after trying it I must say it works! You get the "pump" and two corks with this. You open the wine, then put the new cork in the bottle, take the pump and push it down on the cork and while pushing down pump with your other hand. This takes all the air out of the bottle and secures the cork. You know when to stop as it gets harder and harder to pump then you hear a "tick-tick" sound and it's done.....the less wine in the bottle, the more you have to pump as there is more air to get out. When you go back to drink more wine, you push the lever on the cork and you'll hear a "whoosh" and you then pull the cork off. Note: 1) You cannot use the corks without the pump. They will not stay on good and will not work. 2) When you get the corks and pump, wash them before using. Take the corks apart (two pieces each) and wash in hot soapy water. 3) Order a set of four extra corks as you'll probably be looking for more soon! Rating: - New and improvedI owned a previous version of this product that somehow disappeared. The new version purchased this year "chirps" once the proper vacuum level is achieved. (How do it know?) Rating: - WINE SAVERThis is a great product for conserving the wine you didn't finish. Its easy to use, and very effective. Rating: - Works Great, Without Making Long Bottles LongerI realize that a 100% complete vacumn is not achived. However, it does remove excess air (try it on a plastic soda bottle; it sucks the bottle inward). Most importantly for me, my bottles don't have to have the cork pounded in so deep it is very difficult to take them out again. The reusable bottle stopper only adds a few milimeters to the length of the bottle. And, it is SO much easier to open and reclose bottles. Well worth the money!
