I've seen this done on wine bottles before; can it be done on champagne bottles? (IE: is the glass thick enough not to make the bottle burst)

Due to the carbonation champagne bottles are twice as thick as regular wine bottles.

Im sorry. I've only used them with wine bottles. I'm very happy with them for wine and that is the reason I purchased them. Sorry I can't be more help.

Definitely yes for beer and wine, I think some champagne bottles have a larger mouth and they might come off

I have never filled it up totally. However, I have had a couple of bottle that were a tight fit, so I can imagine that if every space is filled it might be difficult. I have not used it for champagne yet, but for Riesling type bottles it worked.

Yes. That is exactly what I bought mine for. I have used in both champagne and wine bottles

Yes, it's the same only if you are using it for non-sparkling wine. This one can hold a higher pressure, thus I using it for champagne. This is a good buy. Hope this helps.

I have used this on wine bottles. And I don't know why you couldn't use it for carbonated beverages. But I found it hard to use because you have to pump it for a long time. I have used the other wine vacuum sealers. Such as - http://www.amazon.com/Vacu-Vin-3-Piece-Saver-Stopper/dp/B00004SAF4/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1381160966&sr=8-16&keywords=wine+vacuum+sealer

The Wine saver won't work with sparkling wines...This does..keeps it close to new for a while...Someone else makes one that has a clam style that works ok too...This is just for sparkling wines....and won't work with regular non-sparkling wines ..Hope that helps...I have about three different styles of them I've gotten over the years....as I carry on vacations so sometimes I lost them...great if you just want a couple glasses and keep it for another night...will not keep for a long time...say a month...slowly loses it's fizz.doesn't take air out...it is a spring loaded cap that keeps a tight seal so the fizz stays in.

Simple answer - no. The top of the silicone cork provides enough surface area to gently twist/pull these out of the wine bottle. When removed they sound like the bottle has just been opened. If the inner neck of the bottle is dry, they can be difficult to fully insert, but a little wine on the cork will help them fully seat. Once seated, I have never had an issue with leaks. Highly recommended!

Absolutely. The idea is to prevent the oxygen from going in with wine. If the cork is tight in its place the top does not matter.

I would recommend a champagne stopper because of the very problem you are encountering. Champagne stoppers catch on the ring of the bottle's neck to prevent them from flying off. I learned this at a wine shop.

Yes, it will be fine, but if you do it too much the expanding and contracting can destroy the bottle.

why would you want to cut the bottle open; in what i am assuming is in the same manner you would use a champagne saber? why yes i would love to run the risk of doing this incorrectly and have shards of glass in my champagne rendering it undrinkable for the sake of looking cool. there is absolutely no need to open a bottle this way. having said that; you should try it on a cheap bottle of champoggin. i would say using a blade this big is impractical just by comparing it to the size and weight of actual champagne sabers. weight might be the biggest issue and generating enough speed and force, which is probably why champagne sabers are smaller. why would you want to cut the bottle open; in what i am assuming is in the same manner you would use a champagne saber? why yes i would love to run the risk of doing this incorrectly and have shards of glass in my champagne rendering it undrinkable for the sake of looking cool. there is absolutely no need to open a bottle this way. having said that; you should try it on a cheap bottle of champoggin. i would say using a blade this big is impractical just by comparing it to the size and weight of actual champagne sabers. weight might be the biggest issue and generating enough speed and force,... » Read More why would you want to cut the bottle open; in what i am assuming is in the same manner you would use a champagne saber? why yes i would love to run the risk of doing this incorrectly and have shards of glass in my champagne rendering it undrinkable for the sake of looking cool. there is absolutely no need to open a bottle this way. having said that; you should try it on a cheap bottle of champoggin. i would say using a blade this big is impractical just by comparing it to the size and weight of actual champagne sabers. weight might be the biggest issue and generating enough speed and force, which is probably why champagne sabers are smaller. « Show Less

I tried using this product on a glass perfume bottle and it not adhere. I would say no, it does not work on glass!

Hi, I've only used this on liquor bottles and ones for oil/vin. They are cheap enough that you can find a use for them if it turns out not to fit a beer bottle.

I think it depends on the cork but to be honest you are in control of the corkscrew and can stop it before this happens. It works very well.

Did you try the paint on the wine glasses yet? If so, do you just wash the glasses by hand & did the paint start to fade after several washes? Thanks, love your idea.
