Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Metrokane Houdini Wine Preserver
Customer Review: Luck of the Draw
Summary: 3 Stars
I was completely dissatisfied with this product after my first month of use. Even if I re-opened a bottle an hour later, there was no "pop" that indicated the vacuum seal had been maintained. However, after I threw away the first seal I had been using, the second seal has performed very satisfactorily, with evidence that the seal is maintained even 3 or 4 days later.
I can not give this product any more than 3 stars, because the parts that work are very good, but the parts that don't work are a complete waste. They need to perform better quality control such that each seal functions as it is supposed to.
I will be purchasing a new set of seals to determine if I just had a defective one, but I suspect from other reviews that it is just a poor manufacturing process.
Description of Metrokane Houdini Wine Preserver
The Houdini Wine Preserver is a pump-and-stopper vacuum system with three major improvements over competing systems. The pump handle is ergonomically designed to afford easier pumping action and to avoid pinching that can occur with other pumps. Two Push-Button Stoppers are included, employing a patented valve that holds a vacuum for days and releases it at the touch of a button. UPC: 022578055770. Manufacture Part No. 5577 Related Link: | METROKANE WEBSITE | METROKANE STORE PRODUCT INFORMATION: All Metrokane products are new.You've spent an entertaining evening over several bottles of wine, but now you have a bunch of half-empty bottles sitting in the kitchen. What to do? Enjoy them to the end with the Metrokane Save-the-Wine vacuum pump, which removes the air from opened wine bottles to preserve the wine taste and bouquet. Without the vacuum seal, the oxygen-exposed wine will stale quickly, dramatically affecting the flavor. This ergonomically designed pump is simple to use, and it will let you drink the wine up to two weeks later with few ill effects. The pump comes with two pushbutton stoppers, each of which seals the vacuum tightly. The stoppers also release the vacuum at the touch of a button. --Rivers Janssen
