Amazon.com Review
This handy little invention is small enough to slip into your pocket or tuck in a picnic basket. First and foremost a sturdy and reliable stainless-steel corkscrew, this versatile tool also boasts a foil cutter and bottle opener--like a Swiss Army Knife for beverages. The soft nonslip rubber body stays firmly in your hand, wet or dry, and as are all Good Grips products, it's dishwasher-safe. --Laurie Notaro

Broke after a few months August 24, 2008
Before the rivet holding it together got loose and then broke, it did a great job. Nice hand-feel for the first couple of months, but shoddy construction. Wasn't worth the time or effort to try to find receipt and return it. Hopefully new ones are built better.

Beautifully simple. Does exactly what it is supposed to do. What's with all those complicated gizmos for pulling a cork? Keep it simple.

Close but not quite! March 8, 2007
I really like most of this corkscrew. It is a nice sturdy base and that makes it easy to leverage the cork out of the bottle, which is good since this is the reason I bought it. I had one that felt like it was bending every time you used it. The thing that I don't like about it is the foil cutter. I can't seem to line it up right to actually cut the foil or I don't seem to hold it hard enough. I have to get out a knife to cut the foil, or just pull the cork up through the foil.

THE BEST OPENER of ALL! January 27, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I've used a fancy lever corskrew at home for years because I thought they provided the best leverage and ease-of-use, but the screw on my expensive opener keeps unscrewing itself off when opening very tight corks.

I travel a lot and carry a simple waiter's corkscrew with me because they're small and fairly easy to use too because they also have good leverage. Well one day I couldn't find my travel opener so shopped for a replacement. The thing is, you can't carry an opener on a plane if it has a knife foil cutter, so I looked long and hard for one with an alternative. (My old one had lost its knife so was easy to travel with, and I just cut the foil with the screw tip.)

The Good Grips 31681 has a wonderful and safe 2-wheel foil cutter that passes airport security, and actually works beautifully! Just run the cutters around the bottle and the foil is off.

The next great thing about this opener is the ergonomic rubber casing that is SO comfortable when removing the cork.

But the very BEST thing about this opener is how effortlessly the corks come out of the bottles! For instance, I couldn't get one of those new imitation corks out with my lever opener because the screw wouldn't grab the cork and would just unscrew itself from the opener instead- drove me crazy! I tried this opener on it expecting to really fight the cork when pulling it out- instead it slid out like butter! I was amazed.

Now It's my primary home openener and I'm buying another one to travel with, and one for everyone in my family!

BUY IT!!!!!

For very little money, you get an easy to use and sturdy corkscrew.
