The Vacu Vin Double Hinged Corkscrew is an elegant 3-in-1 multi-purpose bottle opener for every occasion and every situation. The multi-purpose tool combines the features of corkscrews, wine bottle opener, bottle openers and foil cutters all in one, and it is suitable to remove the cork foil, open wine corks, and bottle caps. The double-hinge fulcrum design gives this corkscrew bottle opener a significant mechanical advantage with extra leverage compared to single fulcrum wine bottle openers. Equally, the bar bottle opener for bottle-tops uses leverage and the double fulcrum to effortlessly open beer, soda and other drinks bottles with a crown cap. Together with the serrated flip blade foil cutter, the grooved corkscrew bottle opener slides easily into all corks, both natural or synthetic and makes opening bottles of wine effortless.

You can use the new Wine Stoppers with your old Wine Saver pump. The old Wine Stoppers can also be used with the new Wine Saver pump. Only one exception for the Wine Saver & Server; this product is only compatible with the Wine Server & Stoppers. What if the vacuum of my wine stopper isn't holding? The most common problem when the vacuum is leaking, is because the Wine Stopper is not clean. Dust or dirt on the stopper can cause the vacuum to leak. This can easily be solved by washing the Wine Stopper, preferably in the dishwasher. To do so, it is best to take the Wine Stopper apart. Can I store the bottles laying down with the wine stoppers on them? We recommend not to store wine bottles with a Wine Stopper laying down. When a bottle is sealed with a Wine Stopper, the best way to keep your wine fresh is to store it standing up straight. Otherwise, the wine can get into the Wine Stopper, which will make the vacuum leak. Moreover, wine can also be sucked into the pump with the next use, which will make the pump sticky and stop it from functioning properly. How to clean the wine saver pump It can happen that little bits of wine get sucked into the pump while creating a vacuum. This will result in a sticky pump. You can clean it with a damp cloth and dishwashing soap. Let the pump dry and apply a little Vaseline (or similar grease) on the inside of the pump and the pump works just fine again. Please note: never put your pump in the dishwasher or submerge it in water!
