Expert Reviews


What experts liked

The OXO is similar to the Truetap, but for a few bucks more, you get a soft grip that some might find more comfortable.
The OXO is made of stainless steel and has a comfortable non-slip grip—plus, a foil cutter folds out of the handle.
The OXO waiter’s friend won rave reviews from testers for both its comfortable handle and the foil knife, which is built into a shallow notch in the handle and does a great job of riding around the bottleneck.
Forget about fuss: The nonstick screw slides through cork easily, and the two-tiered lever allows for painless extraction.
The integrated foil cutter folds in and out, allowing you to store it away when not needed and access it immediately when you do.

What experts didn't like

It’s few dollars more expensive.
Despite its comfortable grip, it has a comically short knife and fulcrum.
But this model fell just behind our winners when we tested how tightly it held to the bottle opening.
The screw isn’t as sharp for some.
