NCAA Purdue Boilermakers Wall Bottle Opener

Bought as a gift and they loved it. I did mount it onto a price of finished wood prior to gifting.

[UPATE] I meant to update this a long time ago. The mfr replaced the opener, and it is now fine. I'm giving it 3.5 to 4 stars because I had to contact them twice, and really, how can you ship out a batch of openers made so poorly that they won't open bottles? Not rocket science. [Original review follows.] If you look at the Q&A above, mine is the one about a friend saying he can't open a bottle with the opener I sent him as a gift. I thought he was just clueless, but he's right! There is not enough of an indentation behind the lip to allow the cap to rest high enough inside so that the opener's lip can catch the cap edge. How can Siskiyou keep letting these pop out of the mold like this instead of fixing it? My advice: get a Starr-X brand opener, they are fantastic. And that company used to make an IU logo opener (I have one), but they stopped paying for the licensing. I hope you will all contact them and ask them to start making collegiate openers again. But back to this Siskiyou opener, now it's been more than 30 days and I'm stuck with this lousy thing, outside of Amazon's returns period. Unless Siskiyou responds to my e-mail: if they do, I'l update this review. If they don't, I'm going to try to Ron Swanson this one using an angle grinder, so either way you'll get an update here.Update already, two hours after posting this review. The company has responded and said they have a new manufacturer which makes openers that actually work. They are sending me one. Just for that response I'm going to two stars from one. After I receive the new opener I will update again.

Being that I'm a USC Alumni, I love the design of this wall opener. One of the support pillars for our backyard Cabana is literally no more than 2 feet away from our pool and directly covering our built-in swim up bar. Thus, placing it roughly 2 feet off the ground on the pillar works out perfectly for us when we're in the pool and want to pop the top on one of our favorite beverages. Now we don't have to bother somebody to bring us a bottle opener from the house when the need arises--or even worse, having to get our lazy butts out of the pool, dry off (sort of) and get our own bottle for ourselves in a nearby cooler and last, but not least, track down the bottle opener amongst the family and friends we often have over. The wall bottle opener is always there and at the ready.It's weather resistant metal construction is also a plus so we don't have to worry about it getting corroded by the elements and weather.The only strike against it, and it's a small one, is that it doesn't have the greatest grip on the bottle tops. Sometimes I have to try it several times before it grabs hold of the bottle cap, and sometimes it works on the 1st attempt. This grip issue is the only thing keeping me from giving this product a perfect score of 5 stars. That being said, I'm sure this opener is gonna get a lot of use in all the parties and get-togethers that are sure to come.

Item wasn't flush and had to bend the metal inorder for item to rest flat against the wall. The metal is actually pretty thick and well made so, even though frustrating, didnt hurt the integrity of the metal. After installation works perfectly. Great addition to my home bar/ man cave.

put this on my friends cooler i was making and now everyone in love with it

The person I made the beer tote for loved it.

Husband loves it!

The Ohio State emblem was not centered On the bottle opener itself. It’s almost like they were rushing to put it together or just mass production. Not recommended.
