1.0 out of 5 stars
Good concept, useless product, March 28, 2009
This review is from: Napa Essentials Air Pressure Cork Popper (Kitchen)
This item was initially sold under the Sonoma Reserve label. I wonder if it ran into a copyright violation. It has nothing to do with Williams Sonoma, and now carries a Napa label. In any event, the concept for this cork pump apparently went straight to market without any testing. The needle is hard to push through the cork and the little pump is unable to overcome the friction that holds a cork in the bottle. Don't even bother trying it on a plastic cork. When I tried to pull the needle from the cork that was still lodged in the bottle, the needle pulled loose from the pump. The instructions say that, if the cork does not come out after ten pumps, then use a cork screw. Save your money and get a Swiss Army knife.

I have tried it twice and pumped like crazy and no cork came out. Very disappointed in the product. Would never recoomend this to anyone and will probably throw it away. Dee

Works great!, June 23, 2011
This review is from: Napa Essentials Air Pressure Cork Popper (Kitchen)
I don't know why others mentioned this didn't work for them. Perhaps they weren't using it correctly. I have used mine several times with no problem (and I am a weak female:)
Works like a charm! Good buy!
