Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Metrokane Rabbit Lever Vacuum Pump, Black Velvet
Customer Review: Better looking but poorer vacuum than the alternatives
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this, although I already had the Vacuvin vacuum pump, because it looked more durable and easier to use. It IS nicer looking than the white plastic vacuvin (although it's grey plastic not metal), but it takes more pumps to create a vacuum and the vacuum is much weaker than with the vacuvin. since the metrokane is also twice as expensive, you'd be better off buying the vacuvin.Customer Review: Much better than other vacuum devices
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my husband for Christmas. He loves it! It works much better and faster than standard vacuum devices. A few quick pulls and you're done. My husband was never patient enough to pump 15-20 times with the standard vacuum device. He really likes this one because it only take 4-5 pumps. He really enjoys using it and ACTUALLY uses it.Customer Review: So so, could be better
Summary: 3 Stars
The vacuum effect is not as powerful as I had imagined. I think you have to pump quite a bit more to get a modest vacuum in the bottle. You can tell the vacuum is on the weak side because if you pry off the top, the suction is not impressive. On the other hand, the smaller wine bottle cover allows you to fit the bottle better in the fridge when compared to other models where the whole vacuum mechanism must remain on top of the bottle.
