Secura Electric Wine Opener and Ice Bucket Set
Long charge battery
The Secura SWO-3N Electrical Wine Bottle Opener is an excellent tool for any wine connoisseur. Not only does this opener have the ability to uncork your bottle in a matter of seconds, but it is visually appealing too.
The Secura SWO-3N Electrical Wine Bottle Opener features an incredibly futuristic design. The corkscrew is made from stainless steel and surrounded by a transparent plastic shell that becomes illuminated by LED lights when placed on the charging dock.
To use the Secura Wine Bottle Opener, start with the included foil cutter and then fit the shell of the opener around your wine bottle and push a button. In only seconds your wine is ready to be enjoyed. When not in use, place the tool directly on to the charging dock. This wine bottle opener comes with a built-in battery. When the battery eventually wears out, you must buy an entirely new Secura unit. The battery is not sold commercially, and it does not come apart from the opener.
Measuring at 30.5 x 6.9 x 19 cm and weighing 544 g, this modern corkscrew can open 30 wine bottles in a single charge. This makes it great to have on hand at parties or gatherings. And, let's not forget its sharp, matching stainless steel ice bucket.

Complete with vacuum sealer
If you're someone who has a difficult time opening wine bottles, then this electric wine opener is perfect for you. Simply place the electric-powered opener around the mouth of the bottle, press a button, and watch the cork slide out in a matter of seconds.

It has a classy and modern look and is available in a gorgeous midnight grey and copper colouring. The only downside to this wine opener is when you're first getting used to how it works. It takes a little bit of practice to get the screw to engage with the cork in your wine bottle and may take a few tries to pull off until you figure out the best angle to use.
