I don't know how well the hand-held corkers work but I am glad I got the
floor model. The local wine maker (Lau-Nae Winery,IL) convinced me it
would be a good buy when I started and it has been. I can fill and cork
a 6 gallon batch in about 30 minutes.

The only thing the wife won't let me buy is a winery or vineyard. I
think it would be fun! Hard work but still fun!
