 An essential item when you don't want to drink it all now June 27, 2000

This is a great tool for anyone who likes wine. I use mine all the time. It does preserve wine well and is quite easy to use, but I would encourage you to get extra stoppers and to use only Vacu Vin brand. I've found that other brands don't always work very well.For red wines at optimal drinking age, don't rely on the vacu vin for more than 1-2 days, 3 at most (and that will be too much for some). You may find that younger wines even benefit from a few days. This is worth trying if you open a bottle and find you don't like it. Or, if it's that bad, preserve it for cooking. Enjoy!

It's a pleasure when an apparently simple item does exactly what it's advertised to do. The Wine Saver is no exception. I used this product for a couple of years and never noticed it to do anything other than what it advertised. Its easy-to-use vacuum pump quickly set open bottles to store, and kept red wines fresh for around a week or two, and refrigerated white wines for about a month. Of course, my wine palate is not especially highly developed, so more sensitive tongues might well rate the rejuvinative powers of this product a bit lower. Still the point is that there is no better system available for keeping open wines fresh. If you like wines, but find yourself constantly unable to finish whole bottles in a sitting, you should definitely avail yourself of the services of this device.

Without the VacuVin a bottle of wine presentings a daunting undertaking - are we ready to drink 4-5 glass of wine right now? The VacuVin eliminates this problem by allowing you to remove the air from the bottle after you have opened it, which slows the oxidation which turns the wine sour.You stick the rubber stopper snuggly into the bottle top, place the VacuVin on top and pump its handle 4-8 times (depending on how empty the bottle is). With each pump, the VacuVin sucks out more air though a narrow slit in the rubber stopper. You can feel the vacuum inside building as each pump takes more effort. The vacuum then holds the slit closed. The beauty of this, is that it takes no time at all - maybe 15 seconds, tops. With the VacuVin, I've been able to enjoy the same bottle of wine for upwards of a week. One hint for a better vacuum seal, is to run the rubber stopper under water before using it - a little moisture helps achieve a better seal, especially when the rubber stoppers are no longer new.
The best wine saver I have found! May 4, 2000

If you truly want a easy to use wine saver that works this is the one to buy! It is the only one that I have found that keeps my open bottles of wine from spoiling. My friends have loved receiving them as house warming gifts too! This is one product that has live up to it's name "Wine Saver!"
