Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Oster 4207 Electric Wine-Bottle Opener
Customer Review: Amazing wine opener
Summary: 5 Stars
I have arthritis in my hands and this is the easiest way for me to open aWine bottle of wine. Compared to other openers, this one is soo easy, just place on top of the bottle and presto, the cork is out. It's so easy a caveman can do it! It works on corks and plastic stoppers. No excess pressure necessary. Keep it on the charging stand and it is ready when you are!Customer Review: Amazing wine opener
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this expecting it to break in two days and not work but I have been pleasantly surprised. It works perfect on every bottle and I use this for every bottle of wine now. I do not have a problem with corks breaking and I opened many bottles of wine that were very old to a couple years old. Great gift and a must have for every wine drinker.Customer Review: Amazing, efficient, wonderful wine opener
Summary: 5 Stars
Almost a year ago, a Realtor friend of mine, Mike Washburn, held an open house. This was one of the door prizes. My background is in engineering, so I'm skeptical and not easily impressed. This struck me as an infomercial gimic and I wasn't the least interested in trying it! We open at least two or three bottles of wine a week and have some nice hand-operated corkscrews. (Some of the corkscrews may have cost more than this!) Well, Mike left this fine door prize on my desk. So, being a good friend, I took it home and plugged it in. Much to our surprise, we *love* it! We've used nothing else ever since we tried it. We even throw it in the picnic basket because it's so easy to use! (Thanks, Mike!) To use it, just hold it against the wine bottle and press the down arrow. The corkscrew spirals down into the cork. Keep holding it and the cork will get drawn up into the opener. To retrieve the cork, just press the up arrow. We've opened well over 50 bottles so far and still going strong. (We make our own wine, so we do open a lot!) It has always pulled out the cork, first time, every time. Even old corks that you might expect to have to baby out, come right out. Additionally, this takes less than half the time of a manual corkscrew and makes the owner look like an expert! ;^) (Thanks, Mike!)--Larry
Customer Review: Amazingly easy wine opener
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally got this at Costco after reading all the reviews. Just try opening a bottle of wine and it is soooooooo easy, I can't believe it. The cutter come in handy and I do not need to use the knife. All you need to do is continue pushing the down button, it will go down and up and remove the cork for you. I have read other reviewers and it is not working for them because they push the down and up button at the same down. The up button is used only for removing the cork from the opener. This is such a handy tool and sure we can entertain more and enjoy more wine more often. What a smart invention compare to the rabbit ear. It also looks very stylish on the bar table. Would recommend this to everyone.Customer Review: Amazingly powerful
Summary: 4 Stars
Our daughter gave this to my wife, who has difficulty opening a wine bottle. It is amazingly powerful and pulls the cork right out of a wine bottle. But, the corkscrew does go all of the way through the cork. I thought it would seal itself, but it does not. We have been in the habit of putting our partially used bottles of wine on their side when storing them in the refrigerator. The cork seeps wine. We now need to find room in our refrigerator for the bottles to stand upright.
