Product Description
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.

Amazon.com Review
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

 Worked after some help November 12, 2008
Out of the box I was a bit disappointed by cheap construction. When I tried to pump a bottle I was disappointed to see that it didn't appear to be working. Maybe it's just my copy, but the pump part leaked air while pumping. I found that a damp dish rag or a plastic grocery bag to choke the pump and make a tighter seal helped. For the cheap bottles of everyday table wine that I use this for it gets the job done, but for more expensive bottles you will definitely want to go for something better.
 excellent product August 2, 2008
Easy to use and it works beautifully...I corked two wine bottles and they stayed fresh for weeks, a lot longer than the product info even indicated. I'm very happy with this product and am considering giving it as gifts.
Best There is. June 28, 2008
Great for all of us that do not finish a whole bottle in one session. It preserves the wine flavor and aroma nicely until the next time you want a sip or two.
Works great April 8, 2008
A few months ago I purchase this wine preserver, and so far it has been reliably done it is job. I have tried several other products; however, I cannot say the same. This vacuum sealer is quick and easy to use--insert the plug and a couple of pumps, and you've got a good seal. Plus, it nicely matches my other Metrokane wine tools, e.g. Rabbit.

This product is to keep wine fresh. It removes the air from the wine bottle. We use it for our oil since air can make your oil rancid. This keeps our oil fresh. It works great but it didn't quite fit our oil container so I put the oil in a clean, washed wine bottle. Our oil even smells great.
