Wonderful Item!
By Wine ConnoisseurVerified Reviewer from Abilene, TX. on 5/23/2008
Pros:
Attractive Design, Easy To Clean, Easy to Use, Ergonomic
Best Uses:
Home Bar
Describe Yourself:
Bargain Hunter, Frequent Entertainer, Practical, Stylish
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is the second time we've purchased this item. Occasionally, we are unable to finish off a regular sized bottle of our favorite wine. This product will keep the contents fresh for up to 48 hours.

For the price level, you won't find another product that works as well. We've looked. Highly recommend.

I purchased this product at the Brookstone store in O'Hare airport in Chicago about 3 years ago and have been using it daily ever since. We've received many comments from friends about its style and who were wondering whether it really worked too - which it does! We are very satisied with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a stylish way to preserve your open bottle of wine.

Wine-Preserving Pumps
By Peggy the PainterVerified Reviewer from S. Freeport, Maine on 1/4/2008
Pros:
Attractive Design, Durable, Easy To Clean, Easy to Use, Ergonomic
Best Uses:
Home Bar
Describe Yourself:
Practical
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

As the ad copy proposed, these pumps take the air out of the opened wine bottle, so, if you don't always use the whole bottle, now you don't have to use the remainder in cooking, but can serve it up to a guest, knowing it will be as fresh as when you uncorked it. Easy to use with great packaging.

 
My husband wants more
By GramcrackerVerified Reviewer from Eugene, OR on 1/4/2008
Pros:
Actually works, Attractive Design, Durable, Easy To Clean, Easy to Use, Ergonomic
Best Uses:

Describe Yourself:
Bargain Hunter, Frequent Entertainer, Practical, Stylish, Synical shopper
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have purchased two other wine preserveing systems with no luck. My husband makes his own wine and buys wines to test. He has a wine cellar and is very picky about the products he uses with his wines.
He loves the weight, appearance, and the fact that this product actually works to eliminate the air getting into the wine to ruin it. He wants another set, and his brother is going to order a set soon if not already. Thanks for a truly great product.

I bought these items as Christmas gifts for someone who makes her own wine and loves to share it. She's told me since then that they work just as she hoped and keep her wine perfect for later consumption long after the bottles have first been opened, and the pumps are easy to use.

The Best for the Price
By Kiki from RSM, CA on 11/11/2007
Pros:
Durable, Easy To Clean, Easy to Use
Best Uses:
Home Bar
Describe Yourself:
Convenience-Minded, Practical
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is one product I am glad I purchased. We never drink an entire bottle of wine in one evening. Red & white wine has lasted for 72 hours and still as good as the day we opened it. Only negative is the added height makes it difficult to put white wine in refrigerator (have to move shelves around in refrigerator door). I'm buying them for friends & family!

They really work
By AggiebandVerified Reviewer from Bogota, Colombia on 10/23/2007
Pros:
Attractive Design, Easy to Use
Best Uses:
Home Bar
Describe Yourself:
Practical
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Often, we open a bottle of wine with dinner, but do not finish the entire bottle. Rather than throwing it out or drinking the entire bottle when we do not want to finish it all, these allow us to save the remainder of the wine for another time. Very practical and easy to use.

This product is great at preserving your wine but takes a lot of effort to get all the air out of the bottle.
