OXO 3102300 Review by L.A. Young “Amazon Fan” (Ventura, CA)

After getting my finger pinched on a brass winged corkscrew I decided it was time to research a different design in wine openers. Considered an electric corkscrew but didn’t want another item on my counter…plus they seem so TALL. This one is 6 3/4″ tall and I think quite attractive in my kitchen tool drawer.
I chose this OXO model because I like OXO products and it appeared more sturdy than the less expensive plastic model.
It works effortlessly. You just place on the bottle turn and turn and keep turning the same direction and the cork comes all the way out. Reverse the turns to remove the cork. And best of all, no pinching or pulling.
My only minor quibble is the foilcutter top is harder to get off than I would like. You squeeze the two indented “buttons” on the sides with one hand while lifting the top off with the other. The top is 2 3/4″ wide. I can’t squeeze both buttons with one hand so I have to press with my thumb, releasing one side then turn it over and press the other to remove the foilcutter. A man with larger hands and more strength probably could do it in one move. I would still highly recommend this corkscrew or cork pull or whatever you want to call this wine opener.

OXO 3102300 Review by The Dude (Monterey Park, CA USA)

For years of opening about two to three bottles of wine a week, my Zyliss corkscrew finally broke. I got my money’s worth out of it, so I had no problem dishing out another $25 for a new one. However, in searching the internet high and low, I not only found that it was discontinued for some strange reason, but that it was pretty much extinct. I’d come across a cheaper version of it made by Faberware, but that thing broke the second time I used it. However, when searching for the Zyliss, I noticed the Oxo Steel Corkscrew would infrequently come up in search results, and I’d read from Amazon customer reviews that it’s very similar to the Zyliss, so I bought one here on Amazon a couple of months ago. I’d say those reviews are correct, very much in the way the Zyliss works, as well as how well it works. In fact, the Oxo works even better than the Zyliss, as the cork comes out of the bottle even more smoothly and effortlessly. Also, it’s partly a foil cutter, which my Zyliss wasn’t. The foil cutter also works great, but it only removes the top of the foil, and I usually like to remove the entire foil with a box cutter. I’m surprised by the reviewer who said his broke within seven months, because the Oxo seems VERY solidly built. I’ve only had mine for a couple of months, so I’m curious to know how common that is, but this is at least the easiest corkscrew to use that I’ve ever owned.

OXO 3102300 Review by Glenn Borchardt “Glenn” (Berkeley, CA USA)

This is by far the best cork screw ever made. I have used a friend’s older model for years. First of all, it’s simple: clockwise in; counterclockwise out. Second, this newer model even has a foil cutter that works. Third, the design is the most elegant you will ever see in a cork screw. Fourth, not only does the handle contain the hidden foil cutter, it provides an excellent grip. I couldn’t remember its name and searched the web for hours, looking at hundreds of cork screws in vain trying to find a similar looking model. Turns out I only needed to remember one word: OXO.
