Oster 4207 Automatic Electric Wine Opener Review

March 3rd, 2010 · Reviews

If you are looking for an automatic wine opener on Amazon.com, the Oster 4207 is one of their top selling units.

The motorized wine bottle opener used to retail at $24.99, but the price has been slashed to $19.95 lately.

The Oster has to be plugged into the wall with an AC outlet and supposed to be charged 6 – 8 hours the first time before you use it. This is very common for most electrical appliances with a battery unit.

When the unit is not charged, you will see a red light on the base unit and on the top. When it is fully charged, the lights will turn white.

The back of the charging base has a cutter to remove the foil on the neck of the wine bottle. Very useful indeed!

When the foil is removed, take the Oster 4207 corkscrew off the charging base and position it on top of the bottle.

Next, press the “down button” and the motor will kick in. Here’s a tip. Hold to the wine bottle with your other hand. If not, the corkscrew will not go in and the bottle will spin instead.

In one movement, the corkscrew will drill into the cork, grab it and pull it out. Next, press the “up button” and it ejects the cork automatically. Easy as pie!

Can You Open a Wine Bottle Without a Corkscrew?

March 10th, 2010 · Guide


Can you open a bottle of wine without a corkscrew around? Yes you can but it does get a bit messy and dangerous.

The video above shows how can you open a wine bottle with a metal file and a hammer. The challenge is not to break the bottle entirely. Neither would you want to get bits of sharp glass in your wine.

Why would anyone want to open a wine bottle  with a file and a hammer?

There are many reasons for doing so. You may not have a corkscrew in your kitchen or the cork is already broken and got stuck in the bottle. Some people will even do it just for the fun of it.

For those that are not so adventurous, it is best to buy a wine bottle opener. If you don’t know how to use the opener, the best option for you is to purchase an automatic wine opener.

Rabbit Corkscrew Versus Automatic Wine Bottle Opener

March 8th, 2010 · Guide


I found an interesting YouTube video that shows you how to use a rabbit corkscrew wine bottle opener. As you can see from the video on top, the rabbit wine opener is manually operator. All you need to use it is your hand power.

The rabbit corkscrew is pretty simple to operate. All you have to do is remove the foil with a cutter, clamp the corkscrew handles around the neck of the wine bottle and then push and pull on the other handle. The cork will pop right out.

The rabbit corkscrew is easy to use if you have strong hands. As you can see from the video, it does require some brute force to hold on to the handles. The wine bottle also tends to slide around the table.

A woman with small hands may not be able to use it quite well. A better alternative is an automatic wine opener.

With an electric powered wine bottle opener, you let the motor supply the force to drill the corkscrew in and yank out the cork. The only force you have to exert is to hold the wine bottle steady and place the electric wine opener at the top of the wine bottom. Next, press the “operate” button and the device will do the rest. Simple as pie!
