This thing looks very impressive and is built pretty well (except that mine has a small crack in the wood handle).However, it ain't that easy to use.As a matter of fact it takes a bit of practice to get used to.The first few bottles I did ended up shooting red wine all over my pantry.Actually ended up having to do some repainting.The secret is in the handle.Make sure you lift it all the way up, go all the way done, and all the way up again.You have to do this to make sure the threads of the screw attached to the pigtail engage.Otherwise, the thing will not twist enough.Just watch the mechanism through the slits on the side...It is also a bit difficult to hold the bottle in place while you are working the handle.I use it pretty often so have gotten used to it but, there are other simpler and just as effective tools (e.g. fork puller thingamajig) but none as impressive and gaudy looking as this monster...Product Description
