Design Failure May 11, 2008 The corkscrew slid out of the handle the very first time I used it. It appeared to only be glued in. Not at all what I expect from Oxo.
Hidden design defect. April 13, 2008 The corkscrew worked really well for a very short time. But because the connection between the screw and the top section is so weak, it failed after about the 10th bottle (and it was not abused). Some samples should last longer, but the design is so weak that failure is probably inevitable. Too bad - it was nice while it lasted.
Lethal flaw January 21, 2008 As with previous reviewer, used this only 5-6 times before the spiral broke in the middle while screwing it into a cork (actually the soft plastic stopper now used by a major California winery).
Cheap piece of junk June 9, 2007 Sad to say, but the same thing happened to me as the previous reviewer. The screw part just came off in a cork after only a couple months of use and wouldn't go back in. I've never had a corkscrew this flimsy. We have a vintage one that still works. I haven't had this kind of problem with any of my other OXO kitchen tools.
OXO Corkscrew January 4, 2007 We love OXO brand kitchen accessories. We probably used this corkscrew a total of six times, when it broke! The screw broke off, and it couldn't be fixed. Since it was over the 30 days since we purchased it from Amazon, we went directly to the OXO company for a replacement. After we sent the broken corkscrew to them, they replaced it with a new one within a couple of weeks. We can't complain, and we will continue to purchase the OXO brand products.
