Description |
| Vacu-Vin wine saver system. The only thing sadder than pouring spoiled wine down the drain is not opening it at all for the reason that you can't finish the bottle at one meal. The one and only, original Vacu-Vin, used in extra than 10 million homes worldwide, is the easiest, much reasonable way to maintain opened wines. The Vacu-Vin pump removes the air (and the oxygen this spoils wine) from opened bottles. Situate it over the reusable stopper and pump out the air. The extra stoppers you have, the extra bottles you can save! One-year warranty. Consists of one pump and two stoppers. Gift boxed. Fits any size or type wine bottle. Additonal stoppers available here |
| Wine should breathe a little, but not overnight. Putting an end to the oxidation process, which turns a favorite Merlot into vinegar, is simple together with the Vacu Vin Wine Saver. Made from high-excellence rubber, which will not affect the taste of the wine, the Wine Saver uses a vacuum-style pump to open air to keep a wine fresh. And it's simple to use--just situate a stopper in a bottle's neck, situate 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 |

 Simple, effective 2010-03-08 |
| By T. Krueger (Wisconsin) |
| The Wine Saver is easy to use and just as convenient as any other wine stopper with the benefit of prolonging the quality of opened bottles. |
| Really Works Well 2010-03-02 |
| By Ken Douglas (Landlocked in Reno) |
| I do have this system (a Christmas gift), but until the night before last I haven't had the opportunity to try it out as Vesta and I seem to finish every bottle of wine we start. But we were in the middle of a Coastal Estates BV Cab and Eight Legged Freaks, a movie with a very young Scarlett Johansson in it that we watch a lot, because it's so campy, when friends stopped by with a couple bottles of very expensive Bordeaux. They wanted to share, so I stopped the BV, pumped the air out and guess what, the next night it was just fine, every bit as good as when we first opened it. So five stars from me. This works. |
| hand pumps work 2010-02-23 |
| By S. Donnelly |
The VacuVin works great for me, keeping wines drinkable for several days. For those doubtful of the whole idea, I would say that hand vacuum pumps are a standard technology (you can find them in auto shops, sold on Amazon) and they remove about three quarters of the air (and hence oxygen) from the bottle. A company called Roarockit sells a pressure laminating kit with a wine vacuum pump as the key piece!
From their FAQ: "The wine pump that comes with a Roarockit is an amazing high pressure low volume pump. It will create as much vacuum pressure as an electric pump will, between 11 and 13 lbs psi." Yes, you can do better vacuum for a lot more money, but it won't help the wine much unless there's little left (and a lot of air) |
 Works well; not really convinced it does much 2010-02-20 |
| By N. Luchsinger (Austin, Texas United States) |
| I don't finish a typical bottle of red wine for about a week, so anything I can do to keep it fresh seems sensible. Basic chemistry tells me that a vacuum will help with that, although I'm not convinced that this creates enough of a vacuum to make much difference. Keeping wine in the fridge is much more effective (if you don't mind cold red wine), so I do both, and am pretty happy with that. Also, it's a lot easier than trying to replace certain types of corks. |

| By Mike David |
| I have tried a few of these from local kitchen stores but this is by far the best. holds a seal until you open it. |
