Yes, you should read the directions, but why wouldn't you. Pull the black pin and it only takes a few pumps. I forgot there was a good red in there and two days later gave it a try. It was judged to still be fine. I'm about to purchase another as a gift.
Metrokane 6500.00 Review by iris
Let's just begin with this: I'm a very small woman with no arm muscle. I can still operate this. I can pump out enough vacuum to keep the wine from going bad quickly, and I did test it on wine and it did last! Letting the air in to open it was very easy as well. It also worked well as a regular decanter. My husband and I love wine but we cannot drink very much and we don't always have friends over, there are special wines we get every year that we'd like to just enjoy ourselves. This is just a great thing!
But I must say... the instruction manual is horrible, it simply does not make sense. You'd have to really figure it out yourself... really... Hence bad reviews people left because they cannot figure out details of how to use this.
My husband and I read through every bad review on this product and still bought this and went through the reviews again and found out why each person was having certain trouble and how it could be amended, etc.
Just remember to place the top properly before you pump (if you pump it wrong, the air will leak through). And be sure to let air IN before you try to open it (even if you're all muscles, it will be really hard to try to snap the top off when it's still vacuum inside). If yours don't hold vacuum very well, either the seal's faulty (ours isn't faulty so it's not the case for every metrokane decanter out there, so don't generalize, just your seal's faulty), or you're not doing it properly. Ours lasted for 2 weeks before we opened it (I don't know how long it would've lasted if I just left it since we drank it 2 weeks afterwards), and wine taste was just as when we vacuumed it. And my husband is very picky about particular wines and wine taste... (We don't just drink cheap wine that smells like vinegar and praise it's good or anything like that)
Also, you cannot make it 100% vacuum anyway, so there IS some air in there, and if you've already decanted your wine into it and let it sit 3~4 hours before you decided to cork it and vacuum it, of course the taste will be different than when you freshly decanted it! That's not the decanter's fault, but rather 3~4 hours of exposing it to the air after proper decanting process was done. Still, you can vacuum it up and use it a few days later for cooking your fish or meat, it holds up pretty well, if not up to par for drinking it straight.

How anyone can use this beyond me. The seal between the cap and vacuum device is left to chance. Builds up your muscles but not the vacuum. Back it goes...poo!
