Product Description: This is a nicely made basic cork screw, whose handle effectively lifts bottle caps. Easy to use, with an attractive brushed finish.
Amazon.com Review: Unleash an aromatic Syrah or Pinot Noir with this corkscrew from Pedrini. Since founder Giuseppe Pedrini first conceived the double lever corkscrew in 1942, the Italian company has offered functional and attractive corkscrews for aspiring wine connoisseurs. Modestly elegant with a black and white design, this double lever corkscrew features a standard spiral and a cap lifter for easy cork withdrawal. The compact corkscrew measures 6 inches in length. --Jessica Reuling

I found this product to be flimsy and difficult to use. The screw part will wind off if your not careful. I think your money would be better spent on a more beefed up version of this product. I will have to purchase something else. This one just doesn't work for me.
Rating: - Breaks easily
After a couple of years of use the metal finally broke. It would have probably lasted longer if I didn't use it for opening bottle as well. Otherwise it works just fine as a wine bottle corkscrew. Hint: Get another bottle opener and use this exclusively for wine.
Rating: - Works but probably won't last long
After 36 years my all metal corkscrew came apart in my hands. This one is flimsy in comparison and there is no way that I think it will last even 20 years.
Rating: - Slick as a whistle
Over time, we've all tried many different types of corkscrews. Some work a whole lot better than others. And this is one that works very well.
Once the screw bites into the cork fully, the levers when pushed down normally bring the cork right up. Sometimes, if a body is not careful and if the cork is very dry, part of the cork may stay in the bottle. But this corkscrew, from my experience, can retrieve the potential mess most of the time under such circumstances if one use a deft touch.
In short, this is a good purchase to consider. Simple to operate and very dependable.
Rating: - Works like a charm
My old corkscrew of 25 year use fell on the floor and broke. I was so happy to find a model on Amazon which was almost an exact replacement for the old one, and shipping was so fast, I had it before I needed to open the next bottle of wine. Works like a charm.
