None betterJul 13, 2000
By David Wihowski I have never used a better corkscrew. Simply set it on the bottle. Press down (gently) while turning. Keep turning until the cork is out. Turn backwards and the cork pops out of the tool.You will not have trouble with getting your corkscrew cocked or skewed (going into the cork crooked). You will not have trouble getting the cork off the corkscrew. You don't have to pull on anything. Occasionally you find an odd extra long cork--you might have to gently pull it out the last little bit. It's the ergonomic!

Yes, it extracts the cork easily, but....Aug 27, 2002
Many older people love Oxo tools and utensils because of their ergonomic grips. Although I am still fairly spry, I have many Oxo products because they are just better-designed for the human hand than most. This corkscrew operates on the proven "Screwpull" design by extracting the cork quite effortlessly through a continuous screwing action. However, there is no easy way to get the cork off the screw! You have the grip the cork with your fingers to retract the screw by unscrewing it -- not an easy task for someone with arthritis. Oxo needs to amend the design by adding a clamping ring to grab the cork to ease its removal from the screw. It could easily be a 5-star product if they add this feature.

Excellent product !!Nov 26, 2002
By CJ Screws in straight and easy, extracting the cork without any damage, therefore allowing you to reinsert the cork. It could give arthritics some trouble removing the cork from the screw, but that could be said for a lot of corkscrews. This is by far the easiest corkscrew I've ever used. No problems with foil or wax.

Nice addition to corkscrew collectionJul 14, 2000
This attractive (modern) Cork Pull is a welcome addition to bottle-opening alternatives in the kitchen. All that it necessary is the ability to set it on the bottle and turn. Requires very little effort and takes any guesswork out of the process. No need to hide it away--in fact, can function as something of a conversation piece as well. Simple, functional, easy to clean.
