Customer Ratings & Reviews

Although pricey, this filtration system removes the sulfates that contribute to the headaches that come with drinking red wine.

Wasn't positive of the results we might get by using this product but, to this point, we've enjoyed the enhanced taste this product provides.

It’s a decent aerateor . Like that it takes out the sulfates .

Gave this to friend as a house warming gift. She loves it. I would think the only down fall is the filters.

Removing sulfates from wine makes it less likely you'll have headaches the next day. This device works great.

This filter seems to do exactly what it says, filter your wine. My only complaint is that after I took it apart to clean it, it didn't seem to go back together as well as I wanted and I am never sure if I put it back together correctly. Overall I am happy with it, but it seems like it could be revised to make it even better.

I was able to get the last one in stock. Removes the sulfates and lessens the next day wine hangover.

Less sulfites is the way to go! Wine tastes better and no headaches!

Works great. The filters get expensive if you drink a lot of wine.

This is perfect for wine drinkers as it removes the sulfates that lead to hangovers.

So far so good, figured I would try this based on other reviews and because it was on sale also. Really does make a difference, several wines I have tried taste "smoother", some cheaper bottles have a bitter aftertaste, this purifier softens that up and makes it taste like a bottle double the price. Only downside if any, tied to buying the filters at least they are not that expensive.

This filter is great. Wine taste so much better after using the filter. Great gift.

Just to clarify for everyone- this is not a wine aerator, but is primarily designed to chemically remove sulfates from wine for those people who are sensitive to them. For those who find that red wine is a migraine trigger (like my wife, for example), the sulfites are a potential culprit. You do need to add a packet with the binding agent to the ullo for every bottle you wish to filter. These are about $20 for a six pack through their website, so figure it's going to cost you an extra $3.50 per bottle to use this thing. If it saves you a bad reaction, or allows you to enjoy a bottle of wine when you otherwise might have been afraid, that isn't too bad. We used this on four bottles of wine (reds only, they are primarily what I drink, and those are the ones that seem to be problematic for my wife, so that is what we used. It can be used on whites and rose's, as well- but isn't recommended for sparkling wines) over the course of a week. (No, I don't normally drink four bottles of wine in a week... in case my mother is reading this). The wines ranged from a $7 bottle of Yellowtail shiraz to a $30 french cab franc. In addition to drinking the wine and waiting for side effects (the only way to determine if the ullo is providing benefit for you), I did make a point to do a test of filtered vs. unfiltered wine to determine if the process affected the taste/experience of the wine itself. Both glasses in this case were aerated with the ullo, with the latter being run through before the addition of the sulfite binding agent. From the first bottle, the products flaw (to me) became apparent as it clearly altered the experience of the wine. I say experience, because it was more nuanced than just flavor (thought I found it did have some effect on flavor, as well, but in a very subtle way). It tended to smooth out the wine, rounding off tannins on those wines heavy with those, and altered the mouth feel to a different degree, as well. Everything that had been filtered seemed to lose complexity, but became more fruit forward in a way that may people may find pleasing. I personally don't want to do anything to my wine that alters its flavor in any way, at least for anything that I spent more than $10 on. I actually think it positively enhanced that $7 bottle of Yellowtail, however. So- did it help? Well, after the first bottle, my wife got her migraine that night, per her routine. But we realized she was taste testing with both filtered and unfiltered wines, which exposed her to some sulfites, even if a much lower amount than usual. After that, she stuck to the filtered wines only, and had no headache whatsoever after all three of the remaining bottles. The epidemiologist in me is quick to admit that this sample is far to small to make any firm conclusions- but it gave us enough faith to order six more filters to use for those times in the future when my wife wants to indulge. We will just make sure to use it on those bottles where we (I) wouldn't be sad to see the nuances lost.

Brought wine back to original flavor by removing the added sulfates

I see no purpose of the filter. Just a conversation piece to do when tasting wine. I got it on sale plus a pack of free filters. When I'm done with the filters I'm done with this thing. It was good to try and the sale price 37.09 with tax. Includes extra 10 pack filters you only get 3 or 4 with the Purifier. The free filters are around $25-$27 on BB and Amazon. Another note about the filters: they are only good for 1 bottle and or 3 hrs after first use. See what I mean why this is done after the filter are gone.

Product works amazing - really smoothes out the taste of young bottle of wine.

Expensive for what you get if not on sale. Does filter wines nicely. Can be difficult to open for cleaning and uses 1 filter every use which adds up in cost.

Product is great - we own several. I've noticed the manufacturer sells these for less on Amazon - not sure why they wouldn't do the same on Best Buy (of course I noticed after I purchased)! If you are a wine drinker I highly recommend.

Works! It pulls the impurities out and you don't wake up with a wine over. I haven't had or felt sick when drinking wine the next day. And I'm talking 2 bottles. We have used 1 pack for 3 bottles in a night and the same results.

It really works! Wine tastes great and easy to use
