Review on ๐Ÿพ Enhanced OXO Steel Vertical Lever Corkscrew featuring Removable Foil Cutter by Cornelius Mosley

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Overall great design; However, I have concerns

I've looked at a few openers and I think this one was pretty impressive. However, after receiving the goods, I have a few concerns: โ€ข More plastic than I thought or stated in the description. Plastic isn't always bad; However, I believe it depends on where in the product it is used. โ€ข In the middle of the share there is a disc that serves as a guide for the auger. I would prefer metal here. โ€ข The disc needs some freedom of movement to accommodate different bottle sizes I suppose. However, I am concerned that when changing the auger, the auger can move very easily and get caught between the guide and the share body. This also means that the opener damage is higher. Someone mentioned plastic parts after the opener cracked, so I'm wondering if that was the problem. โ€ข I like the overall design of the handles which makes the bottle very stable when removing the cork. โ€ข I love the built in foil cutter, it really works. pretty good. I'm not sure I'll ever be returning this item, but I'm definitely considering it. For the record, I opened two bottles and it worked, so maybe my fears are unfounded, but...

Pros
  • Home & Kitchen
Cons
  • A little torn
