Push down, pull up and PRESTO!?the cork is out of the bottle! Push down, pull up again and SHAZAM!?the cork is off the corkscrew! This isn't trrickery. You can do it - quickly and easily.

I cannot believe I spent so much time using those old bottle openers. I think it got to the point that I didn't even want wine because I would have to deal with it.

This device is a breeze. So simple, so easy.

Package is nice, good for a gift. Delivered in usual fast time by Amazon. Only issue was the day after I got it, I saw it for cheaper at Kohl's. Ah well.

The Houdini Corkscrew (lever style) is a great product. The price was reasonable. the product is easy to use and saves time.I love it!

In my opinion, the display ad for this item was for a "Rabbit" cork remover. We have all read such good reviews of the Rabbit, and how it lasts forever. I believed that we were buying a plain model of Rabbit, it isn't, it appears to be an inexpensive copy, plastic components, and no better than the no name knock-offs. I emailed Metrokane, the Vendor, asking about the difference from the real Rabbit, received no reply. I'm sure that this model will be in the trash in a few months, just like it's predecessors. I recommend that you make sue you are getting a real Rabbit before you order.

This is a wonderful product. The foil cutter that comes with the set works effeciently to remove those foil wraps on the wine bottles. The corkscew is fast & easy. It removes the cork with no effort. A good investment for the money.

Thank You Metrokane Houdini:Finally found a opener that really opens our wine with out tearing the cork all to pieces and ending up in the bottle. Would consider giving this product as a gift Purchased a very expensive one from a leading retail store only to have it break within the year called the company and they said it was not guaranteed by them to call the mfg I did call and received the same answer, So needless to say I would never purchase an expensive wine opener again,this one I purchased from you guys even works better Thanks again, a wine lover in FL

OK, the Houdini seems to work pretty well so far. But here's the thing: hidden behind the glued-in-place cardboard sheet on the back of the case is...a rock. Carefully screwed to the plastic. You can't make this stuff up!

I can only assume that the rock is there to make the package feel heavier. (I'm flashing back to Jurassic Park: "Is that heavy? Then it's expensive! Put it down!")

I'm not sure what to think. It's a) hilarious, and b) somewhat deceptive. I'm actually kind of glad someone is doing this in the world. On the other hand, as a person who stood and held the Rabbit and Houdini cases and scrutinized the differences between them, I do feel duped. But maybe the Rabbit has a rock of its own.

I purchased this item for my mother. What a perfect gift. This corkscrew makes opening a bottle of wine a breeze. Very user friendly and so simple. The cork glides out without a problem. The only complaint that I have is it is difficult to store since the handles stick out. Although a simple rubberband seems to handle the problem. This item is worth the money and a is a great gift idea.

Customer Buzz
I was reluctant to buy the original rabbit, just b/c it was too expensive. I bought this new version, and I have to say that my wife and I are thrilled! It's very easy to use, comes with a backup corkscrew if the other ever breaks, and we love it.

Customer Buzz
Wonderful product. I have been wondering why opening a wine bottle is so difficult until I bought the rabbit head!

Customer Buzz
This device works, but not as surely as my previous corkscrew of the similar design. The gripper is somewhat uncertain making the cork removal more difficult.
