If you get the Plant Nanny Stakes with the adaptor, can you remove the adaptors if you wish to use a wine bottle? To use either or..

yes they are quite removable. We usually keep them screwed onto the bottles full of water

They make a version for use with glass wine bottles. The ones with the green inserts are for screwing onto a plastic container. You cannot use the ones designed for plastic bottles with glass wine bottles.

I have not had much luck sticking a wine bottle into the ones meant for the bottle adapter. BUT I have been able to find wine bottles and liqueur bottles that fit the threaded adapter. I think the glass bottles look better than plastic bottles. And I like the way the threaded adapter works. Not all threaded bottles work, but Arbor Mist Wine Coolers (gross) and some gin bottles worked quite well. You are looking for a liqueur bottle with a workable thread, short neck, and symmetrical shape.

The internal diameter of the terracotta is too small for the outside diameter of a wine bottle neck. The green plastic comes right out, but the whole spike is too small for a wine bottle to fit in. (got mine last night, bought specifically to attempt this, probably going to return and get the 'proper' wine-bottle ones)

Hello, there is a nut like device on pole that you loosen to extend telescoping pole and tighten it to hold in place. The fruit picker is attached but it looks like you could detach it to place on another pole but I have not tried to do this. We had it fully extended this weekend picking avocados and it worked great.

The wine rack is screwed in and can be removed. I know because it was too large for wine glasses and we had to make some adjustments

I don't believe you can pull the bottle straight out since the prongs are pretty tight to keep the bottle from being knocked out of the holder. But you can fold down the prongs and use the holder without the prongs holding the bottle, if you don't have any reason to believe the bottle would get knocked over. I like this option myself.

I have only used the ones provided. I haven't found an adaptor wide enough to use any other bottle. The machine itself has mechanical issues though. Make sure you have a backup. I purchased this because I'm a FT student as well as working 12hr shifts. I need to pump 2-4 times a day and the display screen stopped working one day and some days I can't get the pump to power on without rotating it on its side. I have a friend that had to get the same pump replaced twice.

No, the wine glass holders didn't work well for us. A couple failed (as did another plastic part), and they rapidly lost their flex. It was very gentle on china - we've absolutely no complaints there.

You'd have to adapt it to a new base...The stakes have to be in the ground....I know someone who welded a plate with a pipe sticking out to mount to it... Yeah, that's what I wanted to do too...use indoors! Grrrr..I didn't see the light gray stakes that come with it!

2 upper and 2 lower wire shelves can be removed but not adjusted. The section between the 2 cooling units cannot be removed. by removing a shelf you can lay down a larger wine bottle. You cannot stand a wine bottle upright no matter what you do.

no - if they get wet they fall off glass items (I label carboys for winemaking) I think that they wouldn't stand up outside you might be better off with a permanent black marker and wooden stakes.

The spreader has a maximum position you cannot go past. You'd have to get a hex wrench or something to remove it. Don't recall for sure, but I don't think it has any adjustments between folded down and maximum position, but it is very sturdy so you may be able to use it at a halfway point or something.

I mounted mine on a metal pole. I drove a smaller pipe into the ground then placed a metal plate which surrounds the driven pipe. the pole on which the winegard is mounted should fit over the driven pipe and rest on the metal plate. this pole acts as a ground in case of lighting or static charges. Nothing that I know of will protect your equipment from a direct hit.

Hi Vicki. Thanks for your inquiry on the Howard Miller Butler wine cabinet. Yes, you can remove the "x" that stores wine bottles. Let me know if you have any additional questions.Regards,BarbaraWeatherBuffs(928) 635-1088

I had the same problem with my Waring opener shortly after purchasing it, and never was able to get the cork out. I finally had to trash the opener and purchase an Oster cordless wine opener. I have never had any problems with the Oster!

I lost the adapter to recharge. Is there another way to recharge this wine opener? We have tried to take it apart and change the batteries, but to no avail. Thanks for the help.Laurie

on the few occasions that I've run into the same situation, I've just grabbed the end of the cork and pulled it off. Though there may be many other ways to deal with it. However, hope tis helps

You can remove them... If you want to store 1.5L bottles. That's it. You sacrifice an entire row of 750 ml bottles doing that.
