Features of Electric Wine Openers
|
Most electric wine openers are cordless and work off a rechargeable battery. It makes the opener a little more convenient. The main differences between electric wine openers are:
Battery Life
At full capacity, a rechargeable unit can remove from 30 to 80 corks depending on the model. Higher end models will be able to open more corks with one charge. A good battery will also provide more power.
Noise
Some wine openers can be noisy with the electric motor. To find out if there are any noise, check out reviews of a specific model before you buy.
Foil Cutter
Sometimes, getting the foil off the wine bottle is half the battle. It is important to cut the foil off clean and evenly. Check the wine opener to see if it includes a foil cutter. It can be an accessory or a feature on the recharging base.
Style and Design
If you want that brushed nickel or chrome look, electric wine openers come in all sort of materials and ergonomic and stylish designs.
