 "Mine just exploded on kitchen counter !!" 2010-01-01
By R. Rogers (W. Bridgewater, MA)
I purchased this time as a Christmas present for my wife, (ok it was for me too) My first use I put in chicken and Italian dressing. It was seated on the kitchen counter top for about 1 hour when all of a sudden it exploded. Yes it exploded, stuff hit the ceiling and went all over the kitchen. Their are no instructions on how much air to pump out. I must have pumped out too much but how am I to know that? If anyone was next to the counter we would be on the way to the emergency room right now. Interesting product but it's NOT safe. Don't buy.

 "Great idea, bad implementation" 2009-12-14
By JB (Houston, Texas)
I bought this item to store cereal and coffee as we've had trouble with those little pantry moths. The concept was great and my Dad & I were both very excited to try the product. The problem is that this product is just not user friendly and not easy to use.

The first time my Dad, who is 80, tried to vacuum seal the top, he broke the lid. Since I had 2 lids, we swapped the lid out and then I would vacuum out the air out of the container. I had trouble with the lid, too. Getting the pump placed just right and then "fiddling" would commence until the pump was in the appropriate placement before air removal commenced. This morning my dad again attempted to seal and vacuum the air out of the cereal container, again, with no luck.

I don't recommend this product. It's not user friendly and requires an awful lot of work to get it to function the way it's supposed to work.

 "New Design" 2009-12-12
By Martin Snyder (Cleveland, OH)
These are the best vacuum marinators for the money. One of mine came with a defect where the fill hole had not been fully drilled out. I drilled it out and it works fine. The pump is the easiest to hook up and use- no hookup needed. These hold vacuum for a long time so medium term storage is a second good use.

If you want an easy to use marinating container this is it! You have never tasted moister tastier foods, I'll never grill without it again!

 "Flavors meats wonderfully by drawing the marinade in" 2009-10-02
By J. Holmes (Seattle, WA USA)
I just bought my third Vacu-vin vacuum marinator. I was given one a couple of years ago and use it religiously to infuse flavors of marinade directly into the meat. It is fantastic, so I bought one for my best friend, and now one for my mother. I would recommend one to anyone who loves to bbq delicious meats!

 "Great way to save wine for a couple days." 2009-11-08
By johns1966 (Seattle, WA)
I have had a couple of these wine savers, and this one works very well for what it is. I have seen a couple reviews on here commenting that this is not effective and does not create an actual vacuum. While it could never create an actual vacuum, I think it is still effective. A wine will not be perfect the next day, but will still be very good. And where even a good wine will rarely last more than two days once opened, I have experienced very drinkable wine after four days. Of course it all depends on where you start. If it's a $5 bottle of wine then don't expect magic.

 "So far, seem to work well" 2009-10-24
By D. Rose (Cincinnati, OH)
Bought this because I saw similar (but not identical) bottle re-stoppers at a Winery, where samples could be tested. Staff could uncork and recork the bottles very quickly for sampling.



So far these have worked well. Stoppers go easily into the bottles. Just have to pull the vacuum handle several times until you here a clicking. Not difficult to pull handle. Also when ready to reuse, just need to press the upper 'stem' on the stopper sideways, vacuum seal is broken and stopper comes out easily. So far working well. People at the winery said you could not use this method for 'sparkling' beverages (champagne) as the vacuum would remove the CO2 (sparkle) - so have not tried with champagne.

 "You can create a vacuum with a hand pump" 2009-10-03
By J. Womack
While I don't own this item (I have added it to my Christmas list), I would like to dispel a myth that has appeared in some of the reviews.



As a mechanical engineer who has designed vacuum chambers for over 16 years, I can tell you with great certainty that you can create a vacuum with a hand pump.



Technically, a vacuum is any pressure below atmosphere. If you can remove one molecule of gas with this hand pump you have created a vacuum. If you hear or feel air rush into the bottle when you remove the cork, you have created a vacuum.



The more relevant question is how strong of a vacuum can you create?



Since vacuum is simply a pressure (force/area) less than atmosphere, you can measure the "strength" of the vacuum by comparing the force differential across the pump. Atmospheric pressure at sea level is around 14.7 lb/in^2. If the area of the pump's piston is 1 in^2, you could create a complete vacuum with 14.7 pounds of force. In other words, you could create a complete vacuum with half the force needed to put air in your car's tire. The application of force to this pump is not the limiting factor in creating a vacuum.



The limiting factor will likely be the vapor pressure of the wine.



Due to the kinetics of the molecules in the liquid, there are always some molecules of wine that are ejected from the surface of the liquid. The rate at which these molecules are ejected is a function of temperature. If all the air molecules were removed from the bottle, a vapor would be created in the head space at the vapor pressure of the liquid.



Presuming that the wine was composed exclusively of ethanol and water, its vapor pressure would be around 53 torr or 1/14th of an atmosphere ([...]). The pressure in the wine bottle cannot be reduced below this point as long as liquid remains in the bottle.



A wine bottle opening is typically 18 mm, so a force of 5 pounds would be sufficient to remove all the air from the headspace. It should be noted that air may have diffused into the wine and predicting its extraction is complicated by a time element and potential chemical reactions between the wine and the oxygen. It should also be noted that mixing between the wine vapor and the air in the head space would likely result in some wine vapor being extracted during the pumping process, reducing the amount of air extracted proportionally. This effect would likely produce a first order response that may make it impossible to completely remove all air while wine vapor remains.



I don't how good the seals are on the Vacu Vin, but if it feels like you have to pull with about five pounds of force, you are getting a pretty strong vacuum. Less than 1 pound of force would produce a pretty weak vacuum that would leave more than 80% of the air in the bottle.



Either way, have fun.
