Revainrating 5 out of 5

Love it. We keep it in the glove compartment when we go out to eat.

Friends and family who drink wine refer to this product as the Traveler. - works well and wouldn't want to be without it anymore. I have returned to purchase more for gifts and wanted to leave a review for others considering this item. At the time of writing this review, the price is $3 less than what I originally paid. What offer. That convinced me to buy more than stockings. I would also make a nice extra host gift of a bottle of wine when attending meetings. Review: I bought this traveler a few months ago and I regret not buying it sooner. We eat out regularly and enjoy our favorite tabs, merlot, burgundy etc, but often don't have the luxury of taking a break after opening. When we are at home we use the Vinturi aerator. Although the Vinturi is small, it doesn't easily fit in a purse or pocket. This item isn't as effective as Vinturi, but works well. Portability and "always there when you need it" far outweigh the difference in ventilation efficiency. The first glass after opening a wine is, so to speak, the target group. The difference in the first glass immediately after opening with and without aerator is very noticeable. After that, the rest of the wine has some time to breathe in the bottle while you drink your first glass, so the extra aeration is the icing on the cake. Easy to use. Easy to clean. Just open the bottle and stick it in as if it were a cork, then pour. We've only used it for red wine and corked bottles, but I see no reason why it shouldn't work with screw tops or white wine. dripping. In between there is a perforated disc made of metal, which serves to supply air when pouring. While safe to water, it's still easy to remove when it's time to go. To remove, wiggle slightly while rotating. Don't force! To clean, simply stir in a glass of water or rinse under the tap. Don't expect results like Vinturi. If you want to replicate the results of Vinturi, take Vinturi with you when you eat out. We chose this traveler and have no regrets. My only worry is that I forgot to take it from the bottle when we leave, but that hasn't happened yet :-). One final note: pouring into the bottle with the aerator on is a little awkward because it adds an inch or two to the length of the bottle. Pouring requires a little more thoughtfulness (or maybe it's just a reflection of me, ha!), the upside is that unlike the Winturi, you can only pour with one hand. The Winturi requires two hands: With one hand you hold the Vinturi over the glass, with the other hand you fill it into the bottle. Hooray and have fun!
