Review on Fred CORKY Vacuum Wine Pump: Authentic and Effective by Wendy Turner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A Smarter Alternative to Vacu Vin

I would call this Vacu Vin Wine Saver Pump with 2 Vacuum Bottle Caps - Black without Bottle Caps - a general purpose vacuum wine cap. Small wine corks have fallen into the sink several times in the garbage chute; With this device, I expect this to be less of an issue. The inexpensive Corky cork fits most wine bottles and you simply press the fake looking plastic cork onto the top of the bottle, squeeze a few times until it becomes more difficult and excess air is sucked out. No, it won't save your $100 Bordeaux for weeks, but it will keep your mid-range California Cabernet Sauvignon from spoiling for a few days. The last case was one I tested on several different bottles and for me it gave the same results as Vacu Vin. Device. It's interesting to share this name with guests, so the manufacturer definitely came up with a good name to sell the device. It's reasonably priced and a good choice if you often miss a bottle of wine on a night out.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Big and Bulky
