Oxo Good Grips Cork Pull

Product Description

Forget all that wiggling and pulling! Simply turn the soft, comfortable knob to lower the non-stick screw into the cork, and then continue turning to lift the cork from the bottle. Works on any size bottle.

GREAT GREAT GREAT! This product is so easy I couldn't figure it out at first. I was so used to pulling & tugging on corks I thought there couldn't be a better way, but this product is amazing :)


I usually love Oxo products, but this one blows. It is without a doubt the worst corkscrew I've ever owned. I don't use it anymore, but when I did, it routinely:

. shredded the cork in the mouth of the bottle without removing it
. lodged the removed cork inside the corkscrew, making nearly impossible to remove
. drilled all the way through corks, leaving cork bits and dust in the wine

Also, the foil cutter is completely worthless.

Try a Screwpull or a regular waiter's corkscrew -- either would be a much better choice.


I've owned this cork pull for many years and I'm glad to see it is still available for purchase. The positives are that it is very easy to operate and take up minimal storage space.

The negatives are that it is somewhat fragile. The black plastic gasket between the silver handle and clear plastic has broken. Also, as others have noted, if you screw the cork too far, it can be very difficult to remove. Thus, Oxo provided a window so you can see the progress of the cork into the barrell of the handle. You'll still occassionaly miss.

Despite the shortcomings, I still rate this as a 4-star product and I would buy another to replace mine if it ever suffers a more substantial failure.


This is an excellent product. It is easier to get the cork out of the bottle than any other corkscrew I have ever used. The product is made of good quality materials. Another key advantage is that it is very easy to get the cork out of the corkscrew once you're finished! With most others I have used, it is very difficult to remove the cork. The foil cutter doesn't work with certain bottles, but I didn't expect much from this feature anyway. All in all, I love this product and recommend it.


should have listened to the reviewer who said it's hell to get the cork out of the corkscrew. have to be very careful that you don't pull the cork up too far or you'll spend the next minutes looking for a needle nose pliers. they used to make a better one similar but didn't have that problem.i read that review, didn't listen. my bad m.w.


First tried this while we were at Sand Harbor in Tahoe. It was a friends and after we used it I knew I had to get one. A very simple product that does its job well. The built in foil cutter is very convenient as that's one less thing you have to carry. Like any OXO product I've had before the build is solid and sturdy. Pricey...perhaps, but in my book it's quality is worth the extra couple bucks.


I've used this maybe 5 times, and am going to throw it away. It doesn't always work for cork removal; once it pushed the cork into the bottle. And the method for removing the cork NEVER works. When you end up with a cork stuck on the screw, the plastic guard keeps you from accessing it with your fingers. I often drink wine with plastic corks, so that may be part of the problem. At this point, I can't get a cork off the screw, and it's going into the trash with a cork attached.


I'm not quite sure what the negative reviews are about...yes,it takes a time or two to perfect getting the cork off the screw, but after you've done it it's really easy. As far as ruining the cork goes,well-I've done far worse. I have a rabbit that sits on a shelf every time because I love this one. What else can I say? Couldn't be happier,great for the money,and -as mentioned by someone else-it does get attention for being unique!

PS I've had mine over 5 years and it's still perfect!


The built-in foil cutter and easy-grip handle work great, and it's nice to be able to uncork a bottle with no chance of splashing a drop anywhere. The corks remove very easily without no forcing or yanking. And you have to admit, it's pretty cool-looking. It works much better with real corks than with neoprene (plastic) corks, however; the latter are especially hard to remove from the screw once you've got the bottle open. We've put ours through five years of hard service, and while I imagine the plastic part will eventually be the bit that fails, it hasn't yet. For the price range, it's a pretty good value.


Order this item if you like the idea of having your blood mingled with your favorite wine. While the product's promise of ease in opening a wine bottle proves true, the problem is in removing the cork from the corkscrew thereafter. In my case, not only was I unable to remove the cork from the corkscrew (turning counterclockwise did not work, and there is no space inside the plastic chamber for your fingers to get a grip on the cork) I ended up piercing my finger in an attempt to extract the cork, thus turning wine-drinking into an unsavory and painful experience.
