Product Description

Amazon.com Review

There are hundreds of different corkscrews, but none matches the extraordinary, award-winning Rabbit. With 31 different moving parts, this modern, silver wine opener is an engineering feat built for speed. But you don't need to understand the mechanics to appreciate the pulling power of this little bunny. It overpowers the most stubborn, dried-out natural corks and synthetic closures with a user-friendly design. Close the "ears" over the neck of the bottle, and then raise and lower the lever just once. Lickety-split, the opener removes and ejects the cork without any effort on your part. Metrokane corkscrews are independently tested for 20,000 cork pulls; tests assume replacement of the spiral after 1,000 pulls. This high-tech tool comes with a handy foilcutter and comes in an attractive padded gift case. It's covered by a 10-year warranty. --Lynne Sampson

Product Description

Fast, efficient, comfortable and fun, this is no garden variety corkscrew! It will extract a cork in as few as three seconds from all sizes and types of wine bottles. Not only will it pull those really resistant corks, it also works on fragile, disintegrating corks. Handles fit snugly into your hand and have soft "grip pads" on top for easy leverage.

After buying one for my brother, I had to have one for myself, and for the rest of my wine-drinking friends and family. The Mekotrane corkscrew works perfectly every time, with absolutely no little pieces of cork left over to float in your wine.

The only quibble I have is with the foil cutter. It does its job, but not very well--I have several inexpensive foil cutters that do a better job than this one. But otherwise, it makes uncorking wine easy and fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rabbit wine bottle opener, July 13, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Metrokane Rabbit Corkscrew with Foilcutter, Silver (Kitchen)

I have several wine bottle openers but I must say that this one is the best. It makes it fun to open wine bottles. The construction and material gives me confidence in holding and opening the bottle and it is lightweight for the amount of material involved. I have not missed opening a single bottle with a single operation and without tearing a cork. The foilcutter is a perfect addition with a clean cut. Well engineered, well constructed, and fun to use.

As someone challenged by traditional corkscrews, I find The Rabbit an ingenous invention and fun to use. Coordinating the grip pressure while moving the lever took a couple practice tries. The handle size is easy for small hands to grip and maneuver.
