We own three lever-type corkscrews: a rabbit, a sharper image, and a screwpull. The screwpull is by far the best.

The rabbit is a design disaster. It pinches your fingers, it doesn't work well on plastic corks, and the screw wears out fast. I'm amazed that people give positive reviews to it.

The sharper image corkscrew simply doesn't work: the screw goes in easily, the screw comes out easily --- oops, where's the cork? Still in the bottle.

The Screwpull is by far the best. I didn't give 5 stars because plastic corks sometimes get stuck on the screw and can't easily be removed. I'm not sure what the solution to plastic corks is.

I bought this for my wife, who is a bit of a wine buff. She was a little afraid of it at first (she's not a "gadget" type of person), but now that she's gotten used to it she's crazy about it. It opens bottles with incredible ease and speed, and never goes in crooked or breaks the cork. You'll throw away all your other corkscrews after trying this.

Probably little I can add to the stellar reviews for this product. Works flawlessly. And the two little accessories...foil cutter and stopper...are used all the time, too.

This is my third Screwpull. The model I just bought is cheaply boxed and does not work as well as previous models.

I cannot review this item as it was never received. Due to long back order the item was cancelled.
