Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Whether it's to keep cork particles out of expensive wine or assist the fragile-wristed cork puller, the Trilogy corkscrew and foil cutter set from Screwpull features one of the world's most sophisticated instruments for opening wine. Not only does this clever table corkscrew take the work out of cork removal for effortless bottle opening, it now pushes the cork off the screw, too, thanks to Screwpull's ingenious new Activ-ball mechanism. To open, simply turn the handle and the screw drives into the cork's center. Turn the other way and the corkscrew slides the cork effortlessly out of the bottle. Then, while holding the corkscrew (and not the cork); turn the handle again and voila--the Activ-ball pushes the cork right off the screw! Pinch down on the sides to keep the cork from falling off and reinsert it with the same ease. The new, Trilogy foil cutter in this set features a patented, 4-wheel cutter design that cuts quickly and cleanly. Soft touch panels ensure an easy grip, as razor-sharp cutters slice their way around with effortless twisting. It also doubles as a stand for the corkscrew.

Designed in Europe and engineered with the highest quality materials for strength and durability, Screwpull's new Trilogy line also features luxurious, soft-touch panels for extra comfort. Non-stick coating and perfectly shaped points ensure frictionless opening. Plus, this innovative new line of Trilogy corkscrews and bottle-opening accessories was awarded the 2004 Cooking Club of America Kitchen Tested Seal of Approval from Cooking Pleasures magazine. Covered by a 5-year warranty, the handy device will stay sharp and cut smoothly for years. --Brian Olson

5.0 out of 5 stars Screwpull, Screwpull, Screwpull - the only thing for corks!, August 7, 2006

I have used most of their products over the years - from the original turn corkscrew to the really expensive lever models. This is a new twist (pardon the pun!) on the classic.

Somehow the pressure applied by this corkscrew will allow the most feeble cork to turn and lift.

The design can not be improved too much - so simple. This is the corkscrew everyone should use.

If you are a woman and have trouble opening wine bottles with other screwpulls, this one is for you. You don't need to be particularly strong, just stick it in and keep turning. The cork will come out by itself. They used to be less expensive, but still are a better option than those super expensive ones that can open your bottle really fast but take a lot of storage space.

This review is from: Screwpull 500650010 Trilogy Table Corkscrew and Foil Cutter Gift Set (Kitchen)

This Screwpull set is a fine addition to anyone's corkscrew set. It's ease and, might I add, safety, are far above those of the average waiter's corkscrew.

I didn't by the set for the foilcutter, but I'm glade I did. It's simple, easy, and works like a charm. Easily a 5-star devise for 5-bucks.

The corkscrew is also the best I've used. It's easy, although is might be a tad more difficult with a weak grip (you need to keep the bottle from spinning). It easily lifts the cork from the bottle. My only complaint, and why I withheld the final star, is that the corkscrew does not always travel down the center of the cork. If it goes to the edges, the cork tends to break off little pieces into the wine. 4-stars, but since it's the bulk of the cost, the set also gets 4.

Would I buy again? You bet!
