It's not plastic, and it's very sturdy.
It allows you to insert the AhSo further down the edge, between the cork and the glass bottle neck, giving you more flexibility. The two prices nestle together for easy turning and cork removal.
Selected User Reviews For The Durand® two part device to successfully remove older and fragile wine corks whole and intact.
This is an excellent product that comes highly recommended, but you can get it from the manufacturer for $125 with free shipping, so it is significantly overpriced.
This product is far too expensive for the value it provides. In essence, it's a cross between an ahh so cork puller and a standard corkscrew. Both of those products, at this quality level, could be purchased for less than $40. The combination of the two is what makes this product unique, and it comes in handy when pulling old corks - Ports from the past, such as those from Bordeaux. (I'm talking about people who are at least 15 years old. ) It's a useful item if you open a lot of those kinds of wines. The price, however, is not in line with the quality of the product.
Because I recently purchased a large quantity of older wines, I decided to purchase this. Corks on older wines are more brittle, and using a traditional corkscrew would ruin every bottle I opened. The Durand was recommended to me by a Wine Som, and it works flawlessly every time; it's the best tool for opening difficult bottles of wine, and it can also be used as a regular wine opener. The cost is justified in order to save a good bottle of wine.
We had to open an older bottle of wine with a clearly deteriorated cork when we visited a friend's house. I stepped in to try out his Durand puller, which he had on hand. I was sold, so I bought one recently and have successfully used it with a few older wines that had suspect corks. If you like older wines, this is the bottle for you. You'll need one of these if you're ten years old.
Yes, it's a bit pricey for a corkscrew, but it performs far better than a standard corkscrew or an Ah So on its own. One of these is a must-have for any serious wine enthusiast.
The ease of use was not what I expected, and the functionality will not work on older corks that have degraded with age. However, my corkpop will remove bad corks with far less effort and for a lot less money.
Because it takes some effort to use, I only use it on older bottles, but I've never had it fail to pull a cork, and almost every time I use it, it's when I first use a traditional opener and the cork starts to fall apart; it's worked in every case, so how valuable is it to avoid having a half or partial cork fall into your magnificent bottle of 1982 bordeaux? Without a doubt!.
' It breaks the 'adhesion' a cork can develop with the bottle neck, while the screw part allows you to cleanly extract the cork. This device works best with aged or drier corks that break in half and stay in the bottle, but it can be used with any wine bottle.
