Cons: A little costly up front,6-1/2" x 12" footprint 24" high .

To all those wondering “why would I spend $90 to open my bottles of wine?” well here is your answer. Have you ever opened a bottle and not finished it right away? If so, how did you re-cork it? A lot of the openers out there destroy the cork and ...

Pros: Attractive, easy to use
Cons: Handle not solid - broke after 3 years of moderate use

I really enjoyed this bottle opener - for a while. It's attractive and looks nice in a home bar. I open one or two bottles of wine per week so it's not very heavy usage.
