Editorial Review: Product Description: The original - uncorks bottles in seconds. The Black Rabbit Corkscrew from Metrokane is quick like a bunny! It will pull a wine cork in 3 seconds flat. After uncorking, the Rabbit Corkscrew quickly and easily ejects the cork from the worm. This popular corkscrew has been redesigned with a precision metal gear mechanism that's laboratory tested to last through more than 10,000 uncorkings. The black ergonomic design with soft rubber grip pads puts an end to awkward wine bottle opening. Used by professionals. Set comes with a foil cutter in a presentation box. Carries a 10-year manufacturers warranty. Also available in Silver. This corkscrew is synthetic cork friendly Amazon.com Review: Enjoying a glass of fine wine shouldn't begin with fishing out that old souvenir opener from the back of the kitchen drawer. Instead, Metrokane's Rabbit corkscrew offers an intelligent design backed by well-built materials to swiftly and gracefully open any wine bottle. Operation is incredibly simple: just place the neck of the bottle between the two ear-shaped arms, then lift the lever on top and the cork comes right out. Crafted of hardened polycarbonate metal and reinforced nylon, the tool is made to hold up to heavy use, and ergonomic padding on the lever keeps it comfortable. With its smooth, velvety black finish and unique shape, the Rabbit manages to look industrial and sleek-sure to draw attention at social gatherings. The tool also comes with a foil cutter and an extra spiral worm. All pieces are packaged in a padded gift case. Metrokane ensures the corkscrew with a 10-year warranty. --Kara Karll Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Worked great - until it broke!My Rabbit worked like a charm for about a case of wine. Then it started giving me problems on the retracting stroke. The corkscrew just spun out instead of pulling the cork. After a few additional tries it would work sporadically. After a few more bottles the handle broke, rendering the whole thing useless. After reading all the problems customers are having with this company's "customer service" I have decided to throw this thing in the garbage where it belongs and go back to my old lever style ... Read More Rating:  - Makes opening wine simpleAfter years of fighting with trying different wine openers to cleanly open a bottle we often ended up with a broken cork and more frustration. This wine opener makes it almost idiot prof to open a bottle fast and effectively. It works smoothly and with minimal effort. A great wine opener. Rating: - matte black coating turns sticky after about 4 yearsThe device works well mechanically. You should know that there is a coating on it that gives it a nice matte black finish & rubbery texture that feels good to hold for about 3 years. Then at about four to five years of age it turns sticky and will leave a black gunk on your hands; not cool. I think a $50 corkscrew should last longer than four years; so I spent about an hour with adhesive remover & alcohol and was able to remove the coating. The hard plastic that is under the coating ... Read More Rating:  - Defective product, poor warrantee satisfactionI'd give zero stars if it was an option. Don't waste your time on this company. My first Rabbit had a plastic handle. When it broke after several years of use, I replaced it with a metal handle Rabbit because it had 10-year warrantee. (I think the first one had a 2-year warrantee.) The new Rabbit malfunctioned. A mission-critical piece of rubber tore, making the Rabbit useless. I sent the Rabbit to Metrokane per the package instructions. (I paid the postage and also had ... Read More Rating: - Great customer servicePurchased two to use at a community event with lots of wine to open. They functioned perfectly and kept the wine bar line moving. Lost a small piece from one during the clean-up. Call Metrokane and they immediately mail me a replacement part at NO charge for the part or postage. Would purchase them again but figure these will last a long time. |
