I already owned one set and since this was free if a certain cork screw was purchased, I ordered them. I prefer using the wine saver that came w/ my Food Saver.

I love good Italian wine, but try to limit myself to one glass a day for health reasons. I purchased this gadget at a local wine store and assumed that meant it was useful. That was a big mistake!
This gadget doesn’t do anything including seal the wine in the bottle when stored on its side in the wine cellar. Some of the time a bottle on its side won’t leak, but it is just a likely to leak. I tried buying another set of stoppers and having my husband seal them as well as myself. No change made a difference. Sometime they work, and sometime they don’t.
Additionally, when you buy a nice Brunello or a Super Tuscan do you really want to risk it become an expensive bottle of vinegar, I don’t.
I purchased the wine stoppers for my foodsaver and am much happier with those. At least they don’t leak. Although I do finish the bottle as quickly as possible just to sure.

OK, it’s not pretty. But you can store your opened wine ON ITS SIDE for weeks. I’ve had mine for over two years, and the pump and stoppers still completely vacuum seal my wine.

If you are a vine lover and would not wish to finish whole bottle of vine in a single day, this should help maintain the smooth (un-oxidised) taste of the vine over a period of 2 weeks (as it says in product description). The vacumm caps hold vacumm pretty nice. the only aspect of this product that concerned me was its price. I bought it for 20 dollars including shipping, whereas i feel, its worth 10 dollars (including shipping). Even the caps are pretty expensive. Other than that its useful to have, because at least i dont like throwing my favourite vine away after 48 hrs (approx. time after which your vine expires after you put in refridgerator). Even after you vacumm it, its a good idea to put in the refrigerator, as anything in refrigerator survives longer than at room temperature. Enjoy your vine!

we first got the Vacu set about 10 years or so ago and it was excellent. They made plastic containters to keep food it. it worked and kept all food we kept in there dry and fresh. The wine saver pack is great because instead of keeping the cork which i often break – this is just so much eaiser.
