I don't thnk it is worth $20. Go to: http://www.homebrewit.com/aisle/1070
and look at The Whip - Wine Degasser. It is only $6.95, shipping not
included.

But Wait! Go down to your local hardware store and buy a length of
food-grade plastic or an aluminum rod and bend it to the general shape in
the picture of the The Whip. That's what I did. Mine works great.
