Product Description
Prevents cork from flying out and overflow of champagne
Amazon.com Review
Thanks to Screwpull's innovation, champagne-lovers can get all the thrill of the traditional "pop" without the danger or inconvenience of a flying cork. The Cork Catcher fits over the neck of a champagne bottle and traps the cork at it rockets out of the bottle. This is a safe alternative to the old-fashioned method of thumbing the cork out of the bottle while aiming away from guests. Plus, it's a fun little party trick. Ideal for indoor bartending and crowded celebrations, the Cork Catcher also cuts down on overflowing champagne. Easy to store in its original container, the piece should be washed by hand for best results. --Emily Bedard

 Cool Cork Catcher February 10, 2008
I purchased this item on a whim because it looked like it would be fun to use, and after receiving it, I immediately tried it out. It failed to work on the first bottle, but has worked quite well on all subsequent ones. All I can assume is that the first bottle had a smaller cork than the others.
It is very easy to use, removes the cork with a few twists, and makes the cork pop out without any collateral damage. The champagne doesn't foam out of the bottle after the cork is released either. So if you like to have the cork pop out of your champagne bottles, but don't want any damage or harm caused by flying corks, such as dented walls or ceilings, broken dishes, etc. this is the tool for you.
I only gave it four stars because of the failure to remove the smaller cork, so it may not work with all bottles. But I've found it to be much more enjoyable and easier to use than other methods.

Purchased this product as a present several times. It is great as it pops and no need to worry about catching the cork.
