Very Good Wing Corkscrew
348282
The screw is a bit too wide so it tends to tear a cork but the penetration is very easy (the screw is wide) and the lift is also very easy as the wings are reasonably tight to the screw. It is very easy to use and I would highly recommend it but it may leave a bit of cork in the bottle, which is generally of no problem unless you are having to uncork $1000+ bottles of wine. It is a very good corkscrew and I would recommend it.

This is a product that in some respects is very similar to the ubiquitous 'rabbit' style wine openers that have been available for many years. The basic mechanism is the same - fit the opener over the wine bottle and clasp it to the neck of the bottle with the lever raised, then lower the lever to cause the corkscrew to penetrate the cork, then raise the lever to remove the cork smoothly. It works flawlessly and the cork can also be easily removed from the corkscrew with a similar raise and lower of the lever.

When I set this opener side-by-side with the 'rabbit' style opener I also own, it has a style and quality that is equivalent, in my opinion. It works the same way, having two handles that open to hold the neck of the wine bottle. Initially it is a bit awkward to use, but after a few tries it works well and smoothly to remove the cork.

The metal levers give a quality look, and the body of the opener has a very nice feeling brushed nylon that I like very much.

The package also includes one of these Foil Cutter tools that are also very useful and work superbly, plus a spare corkscrew and bottle stopper, and a stand to sit the opener on and support it when not in use.

This wine opener comes packaged in a nice box that would make it very suitable for gift use.

I like this wine opener very much, and I am glad to have it. The workmanship and quality look very good. I expect it to be durable and last for a long time, but if it does not, or if I think of anything else worth mentioning here, I'll come back to this review and update it accordingly.

I received this wine opener at no cost from the seller and for the purpose of review, and I have no affiliation with either the seller, or Amazon.

I like these double action corkscrews because they make opening a bottle of wine--even one with a dry cork--easy and almost fool proof. The two stages allow you to screw all the way into the cord and use the short stage to get the cork out half way.  Then you move to the long stage and get the cork the rest of the way out.

The Barvivo is well made.

This product looks great and is a real pleasure to use. The spring-loaded lever provides two-stage opening and feels more solidly engineered than my old wine key, which had a rather loose hinge in the middle of the lever. The groove in the screw seems to make it easier to remove the cork and avoids the squeaking and creaking noises I had with the old key. The serrated knife blade is nice and sharp, making it easy to remove the foil cap.

This product is very well made and works very very well.  We needed something to open screw top wine bottles.  The vintage my wife likes recently changed from cork to screw top (I suspect more wines will be going to screw tops).  She does not have strong wrists and could not open the screw top.  With this gem it was easy for her to get them open.

EVERY waiters corkscrew should be hinged on the lever arm, but almost none are. This is my first from this brand, and I'm tempted to buy 10 more to have them anywhere and everywhere.

Slight ding on the foil cutter which is not great, just OK, but otherwise this is the wine opener to have.

And while I agree that it is a marvel of engineering, it is a bit difficult for me, with my smaller hands, to use effectively.  I would much prefer a winged corkscrew personally.  But given the amount of joy it gives my husband, I will continue to use this one - or rather, hand it to HIM when we would like to share a glass or two of wine at the end of a hectic day.

I love using this thing.  It works perfectly.  Takes up a little more room in the drawer than other corkscrews but it's flawless at extraction.  But is it worth [the money paid]?? I don't think so.  I found one elsewhere for half that price.

Not only is this the best corkscrew I have ever owned, paid less than half the last one purchased (NOT THRU AMAZON)  Thanks to Amazon's timely delivery and the lowest price.

Nice powerful motor removes cork quick and smooth, battery last long time. Looks good on counter too.
* you have to cut the foil or it gets caught in the device and will clog up the cork from coming back out.

The Corkscrew is great.  Works good.  I love the wine stopper.  It is the best stopper I have ever had.
Thanks

The ease of pulling the cork from the bottle is wonderful.  You asked me for a review the day after I bought it.  That was too soon.  Now that Ive had awhile to try it I will never buy a different corkscrew.  This has saved my fingers. This one doesnt slip off the rim. Thank you.

I have never been able to use this style of corkscrew successfully. After reading the other reviews and listening to the review on "America's Test Kitchen" I thought I'd give this a try. I am very pleased The two step system make this corkscrew super simple to use. I plan on purchasing one for travel so that I don't have to struggle with whatever I find in a condo kitchen,

This corkscrew is fantastic. If you're "upgrading" from a regular manual corkscrew, you'll never go back. It works great, making opening wine bottles very easy.

The toughest part to figure out is how to get it to release the cork, but once you realize you have to lower the cork all the way and then clamp together again, it's easy to do.

The one negative I would point out is that the corkscrew goes all the way through the cork on all the wine bottles I've tried. This means you may get cork-dust in your wine, but it has never been enough that's ever bothered me.

I have RA and have had a really hard time finding a corkscrew I could "work".  This is heavy enough to do the job and it's design is such that it allows me to use it easily, even when my hands are horribly stiff and sore. The worm is sharp enough to penetrate all corks, and it is very, very well made.
