Review on Wine Squirrel: The Ultimate Wine 🍷 Preserving Glass Decanter & Luxury Wine Saver Carafe by Paul Wilson

First of all, I love my wine squirrel! It's easy to use, works exactly as advertised, and is sold by a good company that stands behind their product. I have zero complaints. Everyone should buy one. So why only four stars? First, no one reads five star reviews. And for the other one I grow a star. So you see, this is definitely version 1 of Wine Squirrel, and I'm willing to bet you a handful of acorns that version 2 is in the works. The main problem when Wine Squirrel was first released was the poor print quality. When people complained, the good guys at Wine Squirrel replaced them for free, no questions asked. We should all support them for exactly that. This was almost certainly due to a misunderstanding with their Chinese manufacturer (I'm not sure if it's made in China, but small startups just can't compete with manufacturing costs in the US, so I'm guessing China. Not big deal. 90% of the things in your house were made there. Deal with it. Now it's the world). After the printing problems were fixed, "Wine Squirrel" started selling. The distribution has been fine tuned, the return has been reduced to an acceptable percentage and a small profit has been made. However, rather than resting on its laurels, Wine Squirrel is certainly doing the right thing by investing in the next "new and improved" version which will be called Wine Squirrel 2 - The Squirreling™ (the name I made up. That is If they use it I want royalties.) Squirreling™ is made from glass (borosilicate) which is thicker or somehow less prone to feeling like it might shatter if dropped. The current wine squirrel has a very disturbing tenderness. I'm always afraid that I'll hit him with something and break him into a thousand pieces. In fact, I put a beer kuzi on the base for protection. It's not as pretty, but seems safer now. The next improvement will be to do something on the base to make it stand more securely. Do you know how scared I am that the glass is too thin and will break if dropped? Well, I'm also afraid he'll fall because I don't think he'll get up (although he does, don't worry). With a cob that tall and a wine protein that narrow, she looks insecure sitting on my counter. They need a flange at the bottom or a rubberized texture or. some. I don't know, I'm not an engineer. But once they fix that, I'll be less nervous about handling my squirrel. (I don't apologize for that suggestion.) In any case, if you've gotten this far, you're clearly interested in Wine Squirrel. Buy one. Do it now. This is an amazing product. I just poured two week old wine from my squirrel and it was fantastic. It's cheaper than the ridiculous Coravin, less bulky (and way better) than those weird vacuum pump things, and it fits in my wine cooler. This is the perfect device for saving wine. In fact, buy two and give one to your mother. You don't call her enough. Wine Squirrel is perfect - so far. But when The Squirreling™ comes out, buy it too.
