flawed
OK this is more of a story than a review. So I pulled the bottle of the wine fridge and inserted the coravin and gave a couple squirts of gas and the wine started to flow so I gave it a couple more quick presses on the button. And wham the cork loosened up and took flight with the coravin. It sprayed me and the wall with about half the bottle. I used a half of a roll of paper towels to clean up and now the wall is ruined. I was so mad I just put the bottle down and threw my arms up in defeat. The next day I found the cork and it was narrow at the top and bottom. You could use one finger to push the cork more than half way into the bottle. So I took it back to the store and have to wait till Monday for the wine manager to come back. We will see what they say. Defective cork. Has this happened to anyone else or just my dumb luck.

The wife “accidentally” took this to the pool to drink with her friends. Saw the empty bottle on the counter when I got home and had a heart attack.
