Review of Nickel Champion Wine Opener Set - Hardwood

This beautiful piece is in the center of my island in my kitchen.It catches the eye of my guests and is a fun conversation piece.It uncorks and recorks wine by simply raising and lowering the lever in a smooth deft motion.....Also note the color/metal plating finish of the actual piece-- antique bronze is another option to consider.The shiny nickel ... really contrasts to the intended antiquity of the tool.Last, the mounted corkmaster stands about 25 inches high-- quite a few inches taller than the average wine bottle.Obviously this is to accomodate all bottle sizes but if you are uncorking the usual 750 ml, you will use the clamp ... to hold the bottle.It made me nervous at first but works really well!I do recommend this item.

Review of Estate Wine Opener Set

I've had this wine opener for about 6 months and I find I rarely use it because it is somewhat cumbersome compared to other hand-held wine openers that I have.The main problem is that the corking mechanism is not vertically adjustable so the bottle of wine has to dangle precariously in the air while you perform the operation.

If you could adjust the mechanism to fit the height of each bottle of wine, this thing would be 5 stars.

Other than that one complaint, I do find it to be very nice looking.We leave it on display with a nice bottle of wine resting on the wooden base.It's a very classy look.

Product Description:
The Estate wine opener is a replica of the "Champion Cork Removal System" first patented and produced in 1897. The original mechanism for removing the cork has been improved through modern engineering and materials. The outer design and inspiration come from the 19th century but the inner workings are 21st century technology. The Estate combines speed, functionality and beauty.Uncorks and recorks a bottle of wine in seconds. Features an ornate design of graqpevines and clusters of grapes. Table stand of hardwood and steel is included. The table stand enables the opener to be easily moved and is great when there is not a countertop or table to clamp opener on to.
