My husband and I received the Screwpull as a wedding gift, but if we ever lost if, we wouldn't hesitate to buy another one! I have always had a hard time with traditional corkscrews (eg. twisting the screw in crooked, so that the cork is sure to crumble), so the addition of the Screwpull to our home was most welcome! This device is wonderfully easy to use -- uncorking a bottle of wine takes little more than a second or two! It comes with a handy foil cutter, which removes foil neatly and cleanly, so that the screw has no trouble getting into the cork (wax-topped corks are no problem!) We have a friend who thought the Screwpull was so great, she insisted on opening the wine whenever she was visiting! This is a perfect gift for the wine enthusiast.
