#49: Cockatoo Bottle Opener
This bottle opener looks exactly like a… cockatoo? I’m not sure what aspect of this product made it fit for a top design list. There’s nothing wrong with it! It’s just a little too much Jimmy Buffet than I’ll allow myself to be. Maybe it’s my tiny bird phobia coming out! It certainly is cute as a button, but I have definitely seen cooler bottle openers.
Many consumers, including myself, prefer practical products with as little design as possible. I guess as long as it gets the job done there’s nothing wrong with having a unique design – on the contrary – so some people might get a kick out of this cockatoo.
