Product Description
All you have to do is push down on the lever, pull it up, and like magic the corkscrew is out. The Houdini Lever-Style Corkscrew can pull a cork from any size bottle in seconds, and without so much as an abracadabra, it automatically releases the cork, too. Tested for 20,000 pulls, this tool is made to last through a lifetime of dinner parties, but includes an extra spiral screw just in case. Gift set features a handy foil cutter that easily removes the foil cap. All-metal gears, soft-grip handles and shiny enameled finish. Imported.

5 out of 5 stars Easy   May 5, 2008
Nice product and easy to use. Girlfriend has no problems using this item compared to a normal cork screw. Highly recommend.


5 out of 5 stars Love it   May 3, 2008
This thing works very well. It does take up some room in the drawer but if you drink wine it is definitely worth. Made very well


3 out of 5 stars Buy a corkscrew, get a free rock!   March 12, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

OK, the Houdini seems to work pretty well so far. But here's the thing: hidden behind the glued-in-place cardboard sheet on the back of the case is...a rock. Carefully screwed to the plastic. You can't make this stuff up!

I can only assume that the rock is there to make the package feel heavier. (I'm flashing back to Jurassic Park: "Is that heavy? Then it's expensive! Put it down!")

I'm not sure what to think. It's a) hilarious, and b) somewhat deceptive. I'm actually kind of glad someone is doing this in the world. On the other hand, as a person who stood and held the Rabbit and Houdini cases and scrutinized the differences between them, I do feel duped. But maybe the Rabbit has a rock of its own.




4 out of 5 stars What a breeze   December 21, 2007
I purchased this item for my mother. What a perfect gift. This corkscrew makes opening a bottle of wine a breeze. Very user friendly and so simple. The cork glides out without a problem. The only complaint that I have is it is difficult to store since the handles stick out. Although a simple rubberband seems to handle the problem. This item is worth the money and a is a great gift idea.


5 out of 5 stars Great and cheaper than the original   November 25, 2007

I was reluctant to buy the original rabbit, just b/c it was too expensive. I bought this new version, and I have to say that my wife and I are thrilled! It's very easy to use, comes with a backup corkscrew if the other ever breaks, and we love it.
