Houdini Electric Corkscrew: Cordless Wine Bottle Opener, Stainless Steel, Battery Operated, Silver

Buttons broken first time out of the box

This corkscrew is a little confusing and difficult to use.

Bought some wine at the liquor store. Said wine had a synthetic cork buried deep in its neck. I put this on for pick-up 90 minutes away from me (no Target in town here, hi) and got it. I popped the batteries in 90 minutes and some gas later, removed the cork, and have had a bit of my moscato. It is simple, BUT: 1. hold the down button down and then 2. push the up button. Otherwise, it will shred your cork/leave a piece of cork in the bottle. Hold it down all the way is my recommendation and then go up. Next: This is not a Cuisinart or a Rabbit. I am not sure how well it will last. I got this specifically for the synthetic corks one of my favorite wine brands (Barefoot) uses on its wines. I fully expect this to break or fizzle out sometime soon, but it will do until I can get a Cuisinart elsewhere. Great find and most Targets have it in stock. (I was also tight on money this month due to moving and other events occurring.)

Partially Goes down into cork and does not pull cork out.

My husband bought this for me for Christmas. It stopped working in 1 week. Would like an outreach for replacement options.

This broke after 4 uses. It no longer goes down int the cork. Just goes up.

It is so easy to use.

With a less price, you will get a complete wine set from other stores.

Waste of money, broke after first use

Doesn’t work at all. Goes into cork and stops.

Doesn’t work, chews through the cork and not powerful to unscrew it out leaving chewable cork all over your wine/rose.

i do not understand the point of this device, i thought it would make opening up bottles easier and instead made it 100x harder ! the cork always breaks and you need almost two people to open it. so disappointed by this purchase (unfortunately i did t save the box so i can won’t be able to return it) don’t waste your money, a regular corkscrew works better

Bought this as a gift for Christmas and I was recently told that it does not work as described. The recipient is able to get the corkscrew to go in, but it does not pull it out, it just reverses itself out of the cork. He viewed multiple videos and instructions to make sure he was following the correct procedure, but it has never worked correctly for him.

This was a father’s day present, my dad uses it frequently and said it works well

Horrible. Cork gets stuck in the bottle and / or opener.

Stopped working on Day 3

The cork gets stripped and does not come out. I will be returning this item.

I have used this item a lot, and have had it for over a year! I have not even had to switch the batteries! It is great for opening wine bottles and super easy to use!

This was a hit! Family and friends loved it. No more headaches trying to open wine bottles with the old wine openers. This one is simple and quick to use

Doesn’t work properly
