Review on Black Rabbit Vertical Lever Corkscrew with 🍾 Foil Cutter, 5.5w x 2.5d x 6h (in) by Jeffrey Gallagher

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Given the name and the price, I was hoping for more.

Some time ago I was given a corkscrew in the shape of a bunny, which has worked flawlessly for about 5 years. When it recently broke, I decided to spend the money on a real deal. Unfortunately I wasn't satisfied. It works well but doesn't feel like it's made to last and actually seems cheaper than the old one. It feels like it's mostly plastic and the foil cutter feels like a kid's toy to be honest. The bottle opener itself doesn't make me feel like I have good control, something about holding it by the neck this way isn't that comfortable and I feel like I'll drop the whole device if I don't have it use it flat surfaces. I'm always suspicious of the bottle slipping out of the device when I'm using it and that's about it. As I said although it works well on a flat surface the cork slips out instantly but I was expecting a better design for the price and brand. If this one breaks I'll most likely buy the same one I've had in the past (sorry I didn't keep the box for both now).

Pros
  • GOOD DESIGN: The ergonomic stainless steel handle with non-slip grip offers a comfortable and firm grip with great power to open any bottle, regardless of cork type.
Cons
  • Incredible piggy bank
