Cork Pops Legacy Wine Opener Built-in 4-Blade Foil Cutter Safe Cork Removal, Effortless Push Button Use, Needle Guard for Safety, Low-Pressure Cartridge Opens Up To 60 Bottles

I had this in a drawer for years before I used it. After all my other corkscrews broke I was forced to try it. Good thing I did. Hints:1) When using the peeling feature don't push down the opener. Just hold it so the needle just barely touches the top of the bottle then squeeze 'up' on the opener. The cutter will circumnavigate the very top of the bottle and remove the film2) Press the needle down firmly into the bottle's cork withOUT untwisting the opener. Untwisting the opener is ONLY for removing the cork AFTER it is removed.Once I learned the tricks this thing works great. I won't use any other opener from here on out

On my second one after the first one lasted over 10 years and lots of wine bottles. (I broke it by mistake). Raises eyebrows when you have company at home given how slick it is. In fact, I’ve gifted it a couple of times in Xmas to friends. Highly recommended.

I purchased as a gift, I have one that is about 7 or 8 years old, rubber on handle starting to deteriorate (kind of stickler), but works as if new. Cartridges last a long time and has only failed to get a plastic cork out once and is better than a cork screw on older degraded corks.

***Update***Being new to this product I was unaware it had a very small learning curve. And it's probably the reason why there are more 1-2 star reviews out there than there should be. You have to be aware that the placement of the needle is everything. You need to know how far down to insert the needle so that when you press down on the cartridge, it will expel into the narrow void between the wine and the cork. If you don't plunge it down far enough, it's very difficult to push down on the cartridge. If you go down too far, it's possible that the opening for the propellant is submerged into the wine. It's only natural to want to insert the needle all the way down before you press on the cartridge. But it's not always going to work doing that. This was occurring to me quite often. I couldn't push down on the cartridge and it felt too hard to press, or it would seem to press down with small trouble but never pop out the cork. It would expel into the wine. But once I realized that the needle needed to be in the correct position, it worked every time. So I'm changing my review. Be mindful of the propellant opening and make sure it's in the correct position before pushing down on the cartridge or you'll end up using up the gas and only open a couple of bottles with it.**Original Review**I saw this used by one of the "Sharks" from Shark Tank on an Instagram post. I researched the product and found it on Amazon. I immediately ordered it due to it's simplicity and ease of opening up bottles of wine. First two or three bottles opened, I loved the sound of it just POP, just like a bottle of champagne, but it was my favorite bottle of red instead. And then......that's it. Like, that was it. Only 3 bottles were opened with the cartridge that came with the product. It was either not a full cartridge to begin with, or defective. Or maybe I was expecting a full cartridge and it was a starter to get you excited to order the refills. I'm not sure. I overall love the product, love the technology, and it's definitely a conversation piece when guests come over and see something new for the first time. But I'm bummed only 3 bottles were opened with the item. I will be buying refills, but if the claim of 50-60 bottles per cartridge don't hold up, I don't think I'll keep buying the refills. I definitely will update my review to 5-Stars if I can prove the cartridges last longer than 3 bottles.

I feel like it will break soon

Very easy to use.

Hubby loves it, it was a gift from a friend who loved it & now we bought it for a family Thanksgiving hostess gift and it was perfect🎉

I have bought 4 of these. I have been using one for over a year and given the other 3 as gifts and everyone loves them!

Once you've got used to it, the Legacy works well. Push the needle into the cork, press the button on the top, et violà! - the cork is pushed up out of the neck of the bottle with a pop.Points worth mentioning:1) Resist the temptation to pull as you press the button - you'll simply pull the needle out of the cork. That may sound obvious, but, if you're accustomed to a traditional corkscrew, pulling is almost instinctive. Just press the button and let the gas do the work.2) Corks on better quality wines tend to be longer and fit the neck more tightly. Two, three or more presses of the button may be needed.3) Most wines for general consumption use corks 38mm or 45mm long. Better quality ones tend to use 49mm corks. Top end wines, where many years of cellaring will be required, use 53mm corks. The nozzle on the Legacy is 50cm from the base of the neeedle. In other words, it copes easily with 38mm and 45mm corks, and will handle 49mm if you make sure to push it down as far into the cork as it will go, but 53mm corks are quite literally beyond it - the nozzle in the needle doesn't reach the end of the cork. So, if you're in the habit of cracking open a Grand Cru Classé to accompany your evening meal, then the Legacy isn't for you. Sorry.

Product purchased in order to remove corks from vintage bottles where the cork is likely to disintegrate using a corkscrew, but failed dismally. A waste of my money

This ish shpectacular. It goesh "POP" and we getsh to drink our winesh shooner than with the tradisssshnal borrel opener.
