Wine Wedge

We see loads of kitchen-related products on our travels. Sadly most of 'em fall into the 'as-much-use-as-a-concrete-parachute' category. But once in a while we stumble across something that genuinely impresses. Step forward the ingenious Wine Wedge.
Stack 'em high!
Ridiculously simple yet practical beyond belief, this nifty little product is brimming with 'why-didn’t-I-think-of-that' factor, and is set to become a must-have item for anyone who puts bottles and cans in the fridge. And that means you!
As you can see, the concept behind the Wine Wedge is so basic it barely needs explaining. But for anyone who failed elementary physics, we will anyway. Basically this rubber wedge has been created to help stack bottles and cans in neat, space-saving formations, in either the fridge, cupboard or on any flat surface. See, we said it was simple.
Make a wine sandwich - kind of...
The idea is to put the wedge under the lowest possible flank of a bottle/can and then start stacking. You can use a single wedge for stacking against a wall, or a pair of wedges to create a sturdy pyramid of bottles or cans. Think of it as a virtually invisible wine rack. With just two Wine Wedges you can safely stack 6 wine bottles or 10 beer bottles. Wine Wedges also work on wire rack fridge shelves. Brilliant!
Moulded to the bottle curve
If you've ever tried stacking more than a couple of bottles in the fridge you should already be sold on the Wine Wedge concept. After all, everyone has experienced a 'smash, bang, crash' moment when reaching for the butter or searching for the hot dogs.
And if any of you tightwads out there are thinking of creating your own wedges, don't. Wine Wedges are precision-engineered from high-quality rubber and their sloping edges have been specifically designed to secure curvy objects. So don't delay, hurry up and get ordering. Your fridge will be eternally grateful.

"Made from rubber, these help keep beers or wine in neat, space-saving formations until guests arrive." Your Home |
"Perfect for a small space." Unclutterer.com |
"Works surprisingly well..." New York Times |
"The basic wine rack is, like the book, a design on which it is almost impossible to improve. That naturally doesn't stop people trying, as these rubber wine wedges demonstrate - they're coloured, therefore stylish, and allow you to stack wine bottles on top of each other against a wall or in a fridge..." The Daily Telegraph |

Fabulous product and gift, but a more appropriate color would be Burgundy....
John Pagnucco, Minneapolis - Sep '07 |
Only good if you stack the wine in the exact order you want to drink it.

 | Don't Break The Bottle Amuse and annoy wannabe wine drinkers via these fiendish, bottle brainteasers. Simply lock the vino of your choice in the puzzle's complex clutches and watch as your host struggles to set it free. That's another wine mess you've gotten me into! (Choose from wire or wooden models).

 | Beer Bottle Goblets Shhtop! Why settle for boring beer glasses when you can chug from a gorgeous goblet. Each stylish vessel has been skillfully crafted from a recycled Grolsch or Sol bottle. How? By cutting away the base, polishing the edges and bonding a base to the neck of the bottle. Sheer glass!
