It works
It is about what you would expect it to be. Push down a button and within a few seconds the cork is out. Pretty easy . . .

Electric Wine Opener
This product is great. I get up to 23 bottles on one charge. It has definitely exceeded expectations. Very nice looking on the counter top as well. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.

I love the auto matic wine opener. It opens about 30 bottles without re-charging. And it is fun to use.

Nice Idea - Poor Long Term Usefulness
I really had high hopes for the Oster. We open a bottle of wine a day - sometimes more if we're having friends over. As a wine reviewer, I have numerous wine corkscrews and devices in my home to do this with. I have always searched for something easy and quick.
This is a tall device - maybe a foot long - that you need to keep charged up. When you are ready to use it, you lower that cylinder over the wine cork and push a button. It draws the cork up and out of the bottle, fully removing it from the cork. Then you push the opposite button for the cork to eject from the device.
It works well enough for a few runs - but then it quickly loses its traction. I have had this for a year now and keep hoping that it will start working again. It doesn't. The worm will go maybe halfway into a cork and then jam. It will stop turning. It works better with natural cork, and pretty much not at all for anything else.
Also, because the worm goes all the way through the cork, it drills a hole straight through. First, this causes cork bits to eject out into the wine. Second, it means if you are planning on recorking the wine and storing it for later drinking, the wine will leak out unless you store it end-up.
If you have dry or crumbling corks you're going to be in trouble. The usual two-prong remover is always going to work better in those solutions.
I could see if you only drank "real cork" wine and only used this once a week or so that it might last you a while. If you were writing a review after a month of once-a-week usage you might think it was great. Unfortunately, if you are a more avid wine drinker, there are just too many situations where the device fails, and the worm wears down very quickly.
Plus, the fact that you have to leave this plugged in all the time makes it an energy leach. In a world where we are all trying to cut down on the power we draw from the electrical system, and keep our cell phones and such unplugged when we can, to leave a corkscrew plugged in all the time seems very wasteful.
I definitely recommend a Rabbit instead. It works VERY easily, draws the cork out in one easy pull, and requires no electricity at all.
