 Much nicer than my old ones August 25, 2008
I had a set of inexpensive vacuum seals I was using that never would connect in the bottle and never held the seal. I really like this product because the seals connected right away, and you can immediately see what the seal level is, so there is no guessing as to whether or not the seal is held. Quite easy to pump, solidly built, good stuff.
 Worked after some experimenting... July 31, 2008
At first it would rarely pump any air out of the bottle. Then, I moistened the stopper and it sealed immediately. If you are struggling with it, you should know that it will register on the gauge after just 1-2 pumps when there is a seal.
As for performance, it definitely slows down the degradation/oxidation of the wine involved.
