Review on 🍷 Le Creuset Wine Pump Set with 3 Stoppers, Marseille by Nick Reddy

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Works, but. for kitchen utensils and gadgets

I have had a Vacu Vin wine pump for a long time but I like Le Creuset products and thought this metal version would be a good one step up. The pump is fine, but the plugs. Well, here's the problem. After you evacuate the bottle, the pump actually pulls the cork out of the bottle as you remove it. However, if I use my old Vacu Vin plugs, no problem! Despite this, the pump works well and looks/feels good. As long as you use Vacu Vin plugs (sold separately from Revain). Incidentally, these Vacu Vin plugs are also better for pressure relief. . With these plugs I would give 5 stars.

Pros
  • Wide barrel requires less movement to deaerate bottles
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
