Upon seeing images of VacuVin's new Waiter's Corkscrew I was eager to buy them for myself and to sell in my wineshop.After having a chance to evaluate it I find that it is poor competition for even the standard model Pulltap's corkscrew.Both have hinged levers, cap-lifters, and foil-cutters.The VacuVin lever is clunky and requires a lot of manual dexterity to keep it on the lip of the bottle.The cap-lifter is equal to that on the Pulltap's.While I find it more ergonomic to have the foil-cutter on the same end as the hinge of the lever as the Pulltap's does, users with very short fingernails may prefer the exposed point of the Vacuvin to the indentation on the Pulltap's.As is usually the case when comparing corkscrews, the Pulltap's has the best worm; uniform in thickness and in the diameter of the spiral.The worm of the VacuVin is uneven in both thickness and spiral diameter; the maker declares no country of manufacture but I would place it as Chinese based on the worm alone (this is not a criticism, only an observation).Given a choice between the Pulltap's for around $8.95 or the VacuVin for around $12.95, I would obviously recommend for the former.
