Coravin Timeless Premium Needle - Preserve Wine for Years - Timeless Needle Replacement for Timeless Wine Preservation System - for by-The-Glass Wine Saver - Premium Gift for Wine Lovers

I don't detect any difference in quality between these needles and the ones that came with the Coravin. Recommended.

I was hoping it would solve the issue of the slow flow. And it did. A new head on it, I think the other one was just dull and did'nt go into the bottle with ease, and removing was ridiculously hard. Now both ways work smooth and the flow is more like it was when it was new.

I ordered this to replace the bent needle in my model 6. This one too bent, after 3 months. My main objection is that $70 is an outrageous price for a component that will eventually fail. $20 would be more reasonable.

WARNING !!! I ordered this to use on my Coravin model one and it will not work the needle will jams. I’ve removed it and reinserted with the same results. I’ve had my model one for years. A waist of $69. The ad doesn’t warn you that it isn’t for the model one.

I make sure I tighten needle every time i use it. I actually have written on the case “ tighten needle”. I have gone through 4 needles in a year because the needle does not stay tight, as a result the needle bends then breaks. Maybe they need to include a little wrench to keep it tight. I seldom use it because i would rather spend the money on wine. Other than that works great.
