Greatness August 3, 2010
Richard Hossli
Well I have to say that these things work great. I took them backpacking and it made my pack a lot lighter, and my wine held up for days. I took 3 of the wine preservers, one I had opened two days before the trip, and all of them were in great condition when I drank them. I fully support anyone who wants to purchase these wine preservers.

They work fine. They allow me to open a large (1.5) and keep it fresh for days.

Hi-
Well as you can tell by the title...I LOVE this thing! I had used a "plain" Platypus for a few years in my travel bag which worked great...no smell no mess, just H2O for hydration.
I, like so many before me have vainly struggle to keep left-over wine from going bad. Forget the Vacuum pumps, the Argon gas, and all other methods. Gently fill and squeeze this bag to the top, turn cap to seal...then I put it in the fridge or freeze (which I know will sound silly or stupid to some). No O2, no oxidation...low temperature= slowing of chemical changes or microorganism growth.
This is super-great for hotel travel, place in a smallish cooler...then have a glass at night with your own snack or even with a room service sandwich. As you may know, most hotels charge and arm and two legs for just a small glass of marginal wine (this will hold about 1-4 fills of half a medium wine glass...but your "mileage may vary").
Remember, a small amount of red wine may be good for your health (remember SMALL AMOUNT) and this Platypus makes this possible with good wines ($5-50/ bottle). Get this in a 4-pack...it makes a great present as well. The color is superflous but the design is great...when filled it expands to sit upright light a wine bottle...for the fridge... or you can easying lay it flat in cooler or freezer...it will freeze like one of those stay cool blue bags...and you can used it to cool your cheese for travel!
Again....I love this Platypus!
Hope this helps!
Take care!

This is for the Platy Preserve, SUPER!!
I had ordered the multiple package and have shared with friends. These are just fantastic. I do believe I need to order another multiple pack just so I have plenty for me too!!

There's simply nothing like a glass (or two!) of wine for an attitude adjustment at the end of a long day of backpacking. Hauling wine in plastic bottles takes up way too much space in the pack. Safe from leaks, preserves the taste of wine, and portable. WE LOVE OUR PLATYPUS!
