Editorial Reviews and Product Descriptions

Product Description

Vacu-Vin wine saver system. The only thing sadder than pouring spoiled wine down the drain is not opening it at all because you can't finish the bottle at one meal. The one and only, original Vacu-Vin, used in more than 10 million homes worldwide, is the easiest, most affordable way to preserve opened wines. The Vacu-Vin pump removes the air (and the oxygen that spoils wine) from opened bottles. Place it over the reusable stopper and pump out the air. The more stoppers you have, the more bottles you can save! One-year warranty. Includes one pump and two stoppers. Gift boxed. Fits any size or type wine bottle. Additonal stoppers available here
Amazon.com Review

Wine should breathe a little, but not overnight. Putting an end to the oxidation process, which turns a favorite Merlot into vinegar, is easy with the Vacu Vin Wine Saver. Made from high-quality rubber, which will not affect the taste of the wine, the Wine Saver uses a vacuum-style pump to release air to keep a wine fresh. And it's easy to use--just place a stopper in a bottle's neck, place the pump over the stopper, and pump air out until some resistance is felt. This process is suitable for preserving all but sparkling wines, and will save Chiantis, Syrahs, and others for up to two weeks. --Madeleine Miller

I think it is a must Accessory for Wine peeps!
It really keeps the air out of the bottle and keep the wine FRESH!
If you want to drink remaining wine bottle the next day or even after 3-4 days....With this vaccum ....it keeps the wine fresh. No more excess fermentation.Bottle fits perfect in the wiine cooler.
I bought one wine stopper from Brookstone for $35 dollars ...a fancy one....but it broke in 6 months and was too bulky...and bottle wont even fit in my wine cooler.
This is a great product.

As per a suggestion from another reviewer, I bought this instead of the Vacu Vin coffee keeper. I just put my coffee beans into an empty wine bottle, and they stay fresh.

I had been given this product as a gift and feel in love with it. Many is the time there is left over wine in the bottle. This product will save the wine, by removing all the excess air. I have since given this as gifts to my wine loving friends. I even take it on vacation!!! Perfect if you want to have just one glass of wine and save the rest for an other time.

I was apprehensive on purchasing this at first, but then I had to try it as I was sick of either trying down down a bottle of wine quickly or else putting the cork on backwards (it always swells up at the down end after popping it out). And after trying it I must say it works!

You get the "pump" and two corks with this. You open the wine, then put the new cork in the bottle, take the pump and push it down on the cork and while pushing down pump with your other hand. This takes all the air out of the bottle and secures the cork. You know when to stop as it gets harder and harder to pump then you hear a "tick-tick" sound and it's done.....the less wine in the bottle, the more you have to pump as there is more air to get out. When you go back to drink more wine, you push the lever on the cork and you'll hear a "whoosh" and you then pull the cork off.

Note:
1) You cannot use the corks without the pump. They will not stay on good and will not work.
2) When you get the corks and pump, wash them before using. Take the corks apart (two pieces each) and wash in hot soapy water.
3) Order a set of four extra corks as you'll probably be looking for more soon!

I owned a previous version of this product that somehow disappeared. The new version purchased this year "chirps" once the proper vacuum level is achieved. (How do it know?)
