Nice Aerator
I spent some time looking around for a nice aerator and I finally decided to try out this one despite having no reviews. When shopping for an aerator, I wanted something that would not require two hands to aerate your wine like the very popular Vinturi Essential Wine Aerator. Yes, you can buy the stand to hold the Vinturi, but that takes up more space. With that criteria, it was between the Soiree and the Metrokane Rabbit aerator.I did not choose the Soiree because the part that attaches to the wine bottle was not tapered to accommodate various sizes of wine bottle openings, as one reviewer had pointed out. With that being said, it was between the Rabbit and Centellino. I ended up choosing this design because it looked classier than the Rabbit because it was made out of glass (although it was more expensive).After placing my order, I received the aerator very quickly. I live in Hawaii, so shipping typically takes a week or more to get to me, but the people at Centellino was able to send me my aerator faster than Amazon was able to send me some of my other items that I ordered at the same time.This aerator aerates the wine in a two step process. First you pour the wine into the bulb. This is where the wine is aerated. Second, you pour the aerated wine into your glass. This could be bothersome for some because it takes about two of these bulbs to fill a normal glass of wine. It seems the bulb holds around 2-3 ounces. If this is a deal breaker, I would probably try to go for the Rabbit aerator. However, this may be a good way for some to be measure how much wine they consume (although one could always do this by how many glasses of wine they consume).As for the actual device.Pros:- It works- Tapered fitting to accommodate a range of bottle openings. (The taper isn't that dramatic, so it won't work for very large bottle openings)- Also serves to preserve your wine if you can't finish the bottle. It comes with a small cork to close the spout of the aerator.- Made of glass to look nice.- Comes in a nice box to store your aerator.Cons:- Made of glass. Will probably break if dropped or mishandled.- The small cork for the spout of my aerator is a loose fit. It fits, but it is not as snug as I would like it. However, I do not plan to leave the aerator on the bottle if I were to save the bottle of wine for the next day, so it does not bother me.- Does not allow for a continuous pour of wine into your glass as noted above.- Costs a little more than most aerators. However, it is made out of glass so that justifies some of the cost.Overall, I can say that it works great. Although I have not tried other aerators, I can say it does the job. The primary purpose of an aerator is to aerate the wine by maximizing the surface area of the wine that is exposed to the air to allow the wine to breath and this does the job.

beautiful conversational piece, usefull too
Love this item. I have several aerators and this one is my go-to. It takes a bit of a learning curve on how to pour it but once you got that it really is the best aerator. It gives a perfect size of drink and really releases the aromas of the wine

One for them, one for you

I Returned It
I did not like this Aerator because of the small size and it appeared far to fragile for regular use. Therefore, I returned it and purchased a different type of Aerator/Decanter.

Excellent quality and design
True to its description, the product works well, good quality thus far, and design to keep the wine in its best stabilized state.

CAUTION: Remind the seller to check the bottle cork size prior to shipping the product !!
Love the aerator and bought two of them. Kept one and gave the other as a gift. The one we gave to a friend was shipped with the incorrect bottle stopper size and is too small for wine bottles. I believe it is the bottle stopper size for a olive oil bottle. Other than having given a uselesss gift to a friend we love the aerator. As it was a gift, it was outside of the warranty period when the incorrect size stopper was discovered. Emailed the manufacturer but haven't heard anything and cannot contact the Amazon seller as it is our of the return period. Without this problem I would have given the product four stars holding one back as the quality of the stopper which could be much better as it has already separated from the wooden cap.

Broke
Stopper cork cracked at first use. Good conversation piece though.

It’s fragile.
This aerator/pourer is a very unique design. That’s why I purchased it. It is fragile, because of the glass. I wouldn’t use it at a large gathering. Also, it leaked a little on the first pour. I had to hold the wooden stopper while pouring. I still love it though.

Unique, and it really works
I first saw one of these on a trip to Dublin. My wife and I were at an Italian restaurant. They had one of these on all their red wines. I had never seen a single serve decanter before. This looked so cool and unique I inquired with the restaurant about it. They had extra's and they agreed to sell me one.Since then, whenever we had dinner parties we would always put this on the red wine. This would spark conversation and debate whether or not this actually worked. This would of course lead to a taste test. The results would always surprise people. Yes, this actually makes the wine better. Also love how it decants single portions at a time. Ideal for top ups.One night the bottle tipped over with the decanter on the top. It broke, and we were heartbroken. Lucky for us, Amazon sells this. The price was less then we paid in Dublin, and it was shipped/received on time.I highly recommend Centellino. The quality of these are excellent.

No son 125 ml
Solicité el modelo C125/A de 125 ml. El empaque no indica el modelo del que se trata por ningún lado. El que me llegó a duras penas le caben 100 ml. Esto fue adquiriéndolo con el vendedor Bara Mx. Ignoro si pasará lo mismo con otros vendedores.

Regalato a Natale, fa egregiamente il suo lavoro salvo che non va bene su una bottiglia di rum diplomatico.
