Great Wine saver August 11, 2007
Works as advertised, keeps vacuum and wine fresh for up to 1 week. After 1 week, poured a glass of wine and still had to wait about 15 minutes for the red to gain full body.

Better Wine for Longer May 15, 2007

I've used the Wine Savers for years now. This new unit has a different type of stopper that previously. These are easier to clean than the older style as they separate into two pieces. I never had trouble with the older styles though as I only had to squeeze the perimeter of the stopper to open the valve and clean. The new pump does SEEM to me to be slower to build a vacuum with the new stoppers that I experience with the older pump that I still use as well. I'm not certain if the increased time is due to the new style stopper or to the pump. (Easy to check, but haven't yet.) I always recap and vacuum even between glasses of wine as I keep my wine in a wine cooler (electric) and that requires laying the bottles horizontal and a vacuum to prevent spillage. I would consider not having a wine vacuum system. My wine stays good for days, easily. If you enjoy good wine, these vacuum sets pay for themselves rapidly, that is unless you drink your bottles completely -- that may be next!!! I rate this as a 4 rather than a 5 due to the apparent slower time to creat a vacuum. Still beats the heck out of hooking up the Food Saver apparatus for the small task. Buy it and get extra stoppers if you have a house keeper. Mine thought the stoppers were disposable!!

I used to have a similar set before, but I gave it to someone else. I haven't used one since then because I cannot find one with the right price.
This set is made in quality and with good price. Highly recommend!

what a great deal May 1, 2007

Read about this item in the wine column of the Wall Street Journal. Gave many as hoiday gifts for those who don't finish a bottle of wine at a sitting. Have tried ours for up to three days of holding wine and its great. A perfect hostess gift and everyone should have one for themselves if you want to hold wine for a few days. Have't tried it for long term but still recommend it 100%. Very easy to use as well. You can't go wrong at the price.

The "Featured Reviews" are kind, April 7, 2007

this gadget doesn't work that well. True, it takes some of the air out, maybe as much as half, but that still leaves half the oxygen IN, spoiling the wine at a slower rate--2-4 days at best instead of 1-2. NOT the two weeks Madeiline Miller quotes. To really preserve the wine, try the inert gas cans $9 for 120 shots, less than ten cents per use, and they will keep wine fresh for two weeks or more. They are what the restuarants in Napa and Sonoma are using. I do like the Vacu Vin canister sets though, they keep moisture out well.
