| User Reviews |  | Works like a charm every time! rating: 5
This item is designed to remove the foil over the cork. You put it on,squeeze,turn the bottle around and presto!Flip off the foil! Ready to remove the cork with your cork screw. Easy to use. Stick the foil cutter back in its plastic container and that's that. Drink up!

Plastic/rubber fell apart rating: 2
I got one of these because Metrokane tends to have well designed, nice looking products. It worked just fine for cutting foils off wine bottles, but it failed in quality - the rubber/plastic (not quite sure what it was) seemed to corrode over time and became sticky. It was not like that when we first purchased it. We tried cleaning it with soap and also tried picking off the sticky bits that collected on the black part to no avail. We ended up tossing this as it became too icky to use and went for a screwpull cutter instead.

too much effort rating: 1
This foil cutter is awkward to use, requiring a great deal of hand strength to squeeze it together as you rotate it around the foil on the wine bottle. I'm the only one in the house who can make it work. It also doesn't work well enough when the bottle has plastic instead of foil. I don't recommend it.

Not impressed rating: 2
This foil cutter requires more effort (a stronger squeeze) than it really ought to, and too much turning. The built-in foil cutter on my "Boomerang" brand waiter's corkscrew works more reliably, and requires less effort, and the whole corkscrew hardly costs more than this foil cutter.
I had expected that a purpose-built, standalone foil cutter would excel at the task, but this device came up short.

Don't bother! rating: 1
Horrible! Only two cutting wheels. Does not fit on bottles with an extra wide neck. Flimsy. I would guess that this will break in a month or two. Stick to a Screwpull.
