Do not waste your money

Cons:

Awkward To Use, Breaks, Difficult To Use

Describe Yourself:

Frequent Entertainer, Practical, Stylish

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The Vortex Aerating Funnel is cheaply made and flimsy. It easily bends and weld seams crack. Top section drains too slowly and not an adequate resevoir. Requires pouring at a trickle, or frequently stopping. Wine never fully empties from aerator. The bottom section does not have a drain hole. Wine is trapped and spills when removing Vortex funnel.I tried 2 Vortex funnels, [...] exchange for the first. The second Vortex was worse than the first. It arrived bent inside of its box. I subsequently returned both. Do not waste your money. This is not a quality item.

oh well

By Wine Snob

Pros:

Attractive Design

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I bought this strickly on looks. But I am returning it after my first use. It does not empty completely. I had a little wine left over in the top section and there is not a hole or something to empty the bottom section. I didn't want the hassle of having to dump wine from my aerator after I had used it.
