even after plugging the cord into the side of this corkscrew it doesn't work--it should work if plugged in but not.

Mine stopped working after a few months bc the cord would no longer stay in. I even tried to buy a similar plug at an electronics store but couldn't find anything that would fit. I bought an Oster electric wine opener on here and it all works great after a few years.

No, it will not work while charging, after it is completely charged, I leave mine plugged in overnight, remove the cord and it should work perfectly.

The initial takes several hours per the instructions. It will not work on ac alone

It worked for me NOT plugged in. Try that. It is a terrific device. Make sure it is charged, then unplug and run it from the charged battery.

No -- it doesn't work even with regular voltage cord. I returned this item.

When you plug something into it and it does not work try resetting it. If that does not work try replacing it.

my keyboard has not worked without being plugged into a power source. I have tried contacting customer service. no luck there. I have called and emailed them. I don't even use mine. Happily the seller refunded my money but I am not at all happy with this keyboard. good luck

OK -- it's your fault! I yanked it out and the small end that was stuck did not come out with cord. Dang. Guess I will buy a new one.

I have had this happen. I insert a small screwdriver inti the barrel along side the cork to keep it from spinning. It comes right out.

YES.....Yes. This is a major problem. I cut two small rectangles from a pill bottle and squeezed them in between the plug and the receptacle holes. Works fine now but it is a design defect.

I had the same problem. I bought a new cord, off brand, cheapo cord and it works great.

I had it charged up and then unplugged it. The next day it wouldn't open one bottle. It needs to be charging all the time.

We purchased this for my mother in law so it is in her possession. As of now, she has not mentioned anything regarding this issue. I've been at her house when she is charging and I didn't see any problem with it. It may be your cord.

I used it plugged directly into outlet so I cannot say if it works with extension chord. I "think" I remember reading somewhere that it should be plugged into outlet. I am using it at my church and it works great bu I cannot just step down the hall and try it with an extension chord.Bruce J

Hello,I had the same question. It takes a while for the liquid in the bottle to go down. If the bottle starts to get warm after being plugged in, it should be working. I have noticed that if you plug it in in a room with the door open, it takes much longer for the bottle to go down. If you close the door to the room, it will go down faster.Good luck!

That was the same issue I seem to have. Nothing worked when I plugged in to it.

try on new batteries only / then electric cord plugin only / then read the owners manual / then if it will not work return it

The needle was sturdy enough to penetrate the cork. No problem there; however, I returned this item after going through 4 different bottles of wine (with diff corks) and it never opened any bottle. Multiple attempts....and nada. Don't waste your time or money. It's a good concept...but not a good product.
