So worth the money. Apr 18, 2005
By Karen S. Kelly
"online law student blogger"
I was in a car accident and have trouble gripping, and also have pain and limited motion in my shoulders, so even using the wing-style cork screws were uncomfortable for me. I finally decided to splurge on an easy-to-use corkscrew. I'm so glad I bought this one.
You just place the corkscrew on the bottle, then turn the handle clockwise. It's big and rubber, and easy to turn & grip. The corkscrew goes down into the bottle, and actually lifts the cork out, as you continue to turn it clockwise.
Then, to get the cork off of the corkscrew, you just turn the handle counter-clockwise.
I'm so glad I splurged and quit struggling with cheap corkscrews. You do still need the use of both of your hands, one to squeeze the corkscrew against the bottle, and the other to turn the handle. But, it did not require much strength at all.
It's also attractive, and comes in a sturdy plastic box, which is nice, as it won't get scratched up in my messy kitchen utensil drawer!

Screwpull, Screwpull, Screwpull - the only thing for corks! Aug 08, 2006
By Del Marls
I have used most of their products over the years - from the original turn corkscrew to the really expensive lever models. This is a new twist (pardon the pun!) on the classic.
Somehow the pressure applied by this corkscrew will allow the most feeble cork to turn and lift.
The design can not be improved too much - so simple. This is the corkscrew everyone should use.

Without a doubt, the best, easiest corkscrew you will EVER use! Aug 09, 2006
By Beth Cholette
"doctor_beth"
Being a wine lover, I've used all kinds of corkscrews, from your basic twist model to the kind with the "wings" to the two-pronged kind. Finally, I received the Screwpull as a gift, and my search for the perfect corkscrew came to an end! As others have said, the Screwpull effortlessly lifts the cork up, so there's no actual "pulling" whatsoever--all you do is simiply turn the easy-to-use lever at the top of the device. In almost 10 years of usage, the Screwpull has never failed to easily and cleanly remove a cork; on the rare occasions when it had trouble removing the cork on the first try (probably because I started too close to the edge), simply starting over solved the problem. Spend a little more money to buy the Screwpull, and you'll never need to buy another corkscrew again; highly recommended!

Amazing. Buy it. Feb 11, 2010
By Richard F. Eggleton
"Stuck in Traffic in LA"
I can't get over how cool this is to use. Not only is it functional and has given me no problems with any bottle of wine that I have opened but the technology is amazing. You simply turn it clockwise until the cork comes out but what is amazing is that if you keep turning it clockwise it unscrews the cork! I was doubtful when I bought this that it would meet my expectations but after two months of use it's exceeded them. Please pass me other bottle of wine to open.

Great corkscrew Jun 17, 2009
By P. Remillard
Went to France in April and that is were I first saw this type of cork screw. It is so easy too use it has just one moving part and that is the screw. Just keep screwing and the cork pulls right out. No arms too manipulate. Easy and it never fails.
