Review on Air Cork Wine Preserver (Burgundy): Save Red and White Wine, Reusable Stopper, as Featured on Shark Tank by James Lighting

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Review of long-term trials. More than 1 year. Great idea, but balloons are no good!

The first impression of the product was excellent. Keeps the flavor of the wine for 3-4 days while the bottle is inflated. You have to check every day that the air is deflated, because then the wine goes bad. The seller contacted me when I bought the product and it gave me confidence that the purchase was good, but then everything went wrong. The balloons that come with the system do not last as promised. Revain's information says balloons last over 80 uses, but that's completely wrong. After 3-4 uses, the balls fail. Another came with a hole and the third after the second use was not good. I ordered replacement tanks ($8.50 for 3 cans) and the seller assured me that this is an improved version that will last a long time. Unfortunately the same. The first bottle burst in the wine bottle when first used. There was a hole in the second balloon, so not good. I almost feel like I shouldn't use the latter because it would force me to order again. I contacted the seller to send me a free replacement for the one with a hole only and got no response. More than 3 months have passed, I made my request and I'm still waiting. To be honest I can't recommend this product just because of the quality of the balloons.
