Automatic wine bottle opener corkscrew

How many of you think open a wine bottle is a trouble? I wonder how can you easily do the job. My friend recommend an automatic  wine bottle opener to me. Press lower button it can pull out the cork, press upper button it can remove the cork from opener. So easy.

You really think I would trust that thing with a 40 year old Bordeaux cork??? I don't think so LOL. I've had multiple so called, Sommelier's bust my corks and I certainly don't trust anything but my hand and a waiters corkpull. For the price that thing is going for, it better open Jerahboms, Imperials, and give me a blow job :rofl:  :rofl:  :rofl:  
 
 
Sorry, I'm drunk on Hhwiskey  :shh:
 
I've never had any problems with opening wine bottles. I do think that those automatic openers can be a great tool if you have limited movement in your arms/shoulders and can't use a regular opener.
 
Perhaps I'll get one when I'm older :)
 
I have done some waitressing/bartender jobs, we were thought how to use waiter's friend bottle openers, by far my preferred method. 
 
I actually like to use a waiter's style bottle opener.  I really like cutting the foil away with the little knife and then prying the wine to freedom.  It's really the main reason I don't like to buy wine with a screw cap, because believe me, I am certainly not opposed to cheap wine.  My wife and I enjoy finding the best cheap bottle of wine we can find.
