Wine should breathe a little, but not overnight. Putting an end to the oxidation process, which turns a favorite Merlot into vinegar, is easy with the Vacu Vin Wine Saver. These long-lasting extra stoppers are designed to work with the vacuum-style pump (sold separately) to keep a wine fresh. Made of high-quality rubber, they won't affect the taste of the wine. And the method is simple--just place a stopper in the opening of a bottle, place the pump over the stopper, and pump air out until you feel some resistance. This process is suitable for preserving all but sparkling wines, and will save Chiantis, Syrahs, and others for up to two weeks. --Madeleine Miller

When shopping for these replacement corks, I was trying to find a review to confirm that the new style corks work with the old style pump. I took the chance that they would, and happily found that the new design corks work with old design pump.

Please, Vacu Vin, won't you bring back the old design?! Those slightly softer ones with the slit on the top and three ridges on the bottom? The ones that don't, on occasion, slip up in the bottle, leaving wine oxidized -- the ones that don't fall out in transit, spoiling a cooler's content with spilt wine? I have a couple of the old ones left and am guarding them with great care, so as not to lose one of these precious, quality stoppers. Won't you please make these again? You could even call them "deluxe" and sell them for 50% more. One bottle of spilt or stale wine would make it worth a return to quality -- and I have had three such disappointment with this design.

This vacuum pump system works well enough to keep a bottle of wine good for up to a week or more. Having more than one stopper on hand is useful when you don't want to drink the same wine every night or when you live with someone whose preference differs from yours.
Having a set of extra stoppers is especially useful in the aftermath of a house party, when you may have several half-empty bottles of wine left over.
These stoppers last very well. They don't dry or crack, even when washed frequently in the dishwasher. It is convenient to have a stopper available even when the others are waiting for the dishwasher to be run.

These are great! However you NEED the VacuVin PUMP to make them use. Don't try to use them without the pump as they will not stay in secure, and will not keep your wine fresh. You're better off using a piece of plastic over the bottle if then to just try ordering these corks without first having the pump.
With the pump these work great and are necessary as extras. Just make sure you take them apart and wash them in hot soapy water before using.
Also, both times I ordered these extras they came in a plastic zip lock bag with an amazon label. So I think Amazon must get a batch of them in and seperate them by hand.

I've used this system for years, and it certainly extends the life of open wine. I have not left open wine at room temperature so I don't know whether that works. The seals on the stoppers eventually wear out so it helps to have extras. I consider the claim that it will keep wine for up to two weeks to be overly optimistic.

As sold by CS Imports, these are not vacu vin wine savers, not even close. It looks like this seller found a very cheap manufacturer to produce something resembling vacu vin wine savers in cheap black rubber that doesn't fit bottle openings and is probably the reason the seals don't work because you have to jam them into any bottle opening misshaping the rubber.
They arrived in tied plastic bags with no labeling. This seller probably bought 1000s of these knockoffs and sells them as vacu vins. Don't waste your money. The cost is just cheap enough that you won't want to bother sending them back, so let this be a warning.

Tried these extra stoppers in several different bottles. They will NOT work. Some won't completely allow air evacuation; others will not hold a vacuum for any length of time.... Received black stoppers although the original ones and the Amazon picture of the stoppers were gray. The black ones are not as soft & pliable as the originals. Seems I didn't receive what I ordered but some inferior knock-off.

Maybe it's just that old habits are hard to break, but the old stoppers seemed more forgiving when pumping down, and had a little more sealing surface. Still a great solution.

Best wine store system on the market
This system works great. It removes all the air from the bottle. Very easy to use. I use them everyday. They last about four months and then they will need to be replaced. Read more

Enjoy opened wine tomorrow
These really work to extend the life of wine or carbonated products. Priced right to replace as they seem to eventually go missing.

Every once in awhile the cork can not be reinserted into the wine bottle. These stoppers are very practical to use and are very easy to use. No problems at all.
