Pulltap Corkscrew May 18, 2006 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The double step levered corkscrew is a great improvement over a single step pull. I first saw this in Spain (where the Pulltap is made) and knew I had to have one. Strongly recommend this item. They come in at least two sizes; slightly longer handle. Most descriptions aren't very good.
Got mines at BEVMO for $5.99 plus tax May 5, 2006 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This works great and priced regularly at $7.99 at Beverages and More (was on sale for $5.99). The easiest corkscrew I ever used was the pocket screwpull which doesn't seem to be produced anymore, just the table model.
Wow, what a deal December 5, 2005 19 out of 20 found this review helpful
I am not a waiter that serves wine, an overseas traveler, or a wine expert. I am just a Joe Schmo that was looking for a corkscrew. I read the reviews on Amazon, and noticed this item had an average customer rating of 5 stars. Boy, were these customers on the money. I bought this rascal and am absolutely amazed that such a simply constructed tool can be so efficient. It works great. All the other fancy schmancy corkscrews may be cool to look at, or lend some self-prestige to the owner. Whatever, blows your skirt. This baby is all anyone needs to open a bottle of wine and enjoy it. Although I enjoy and trust shopping on Amazon, readers should note that this item is available at some stores for $10.
Ideal gift for any wine enthusiast October 17, 2005 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I have prettier, bigger, and more expenseive wine openers but none of them match this Pulltap for being easy to use. The two stage design for removing the cork is genius. I've never broken a cork or struggled to break loose a particularly tough cork when using this Pulltap.
I hate to part with some of my fancy (and expensive) corkscrews, but the truth is that when I want to open wine easily and quickly... this is the tool I go to every time.
I give this one my highest recommentation.
Saw similar corkscrews in Canada October 10, 2005 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
We were just at the wine festival in the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia, and almost ALL of the wineries had this type of corkscrew available for sale for $10.00 (Canadian) or less. Now I'm wishing we had bought one up there! The blade was a sharp little one-inch regular knife blade, though, not a serrated blade as shown. They were very nice, well made, and heavy for the size.
