This Vacuum Sealers give to us some advantages, like this :
1. A great buy, easy to understand and pretty durable
I bought this after reading reviews from various sites on how well it was liked and not liked.The day after I had it here, I put it to work and I do mean "work"! On the first day I packaged from box to Food Saver bags: 10lbs of chicken leg quarters, 5lbs of Bisquick mix, 1 case of ramon noodles, 3lbs of dehydrated onions, 1lb of beef bullion cubes, 1lb of chicken bullion cubes, OVER 30 boxes of fruit snacks, 2 dozen single serve tea bags, 1lrg bag of marshmallows, 6 bars of soap, 4 pckgs of dehydrated onion soup mix, 6 pckgs of dehydrated chicken soup mix, and several small packages of cereal.....ALL IN ONE DAY!

I found that reading the directions first was helpful. As I noticed in a few reviews on various sites, that several people had obviously not read the directions first. When I packaged the chicken leg quarters I was tired and forgot to put the paper towel at the top of the bag to catch the liquids. The tray in the Food Saver caught it all nicely. The next day though...

2. Many Design Flaws
Okay it looks nice and takes up less counter space - but from day 1 I was disappointed in it compared to every FoodSaver I've ever had before.

1) You have to fit the bag into the slot and wait for it to recognize it is there and to start vacuuming "automatically". The models where you open the unit, place the bag, and press a button don't require are much more usefull. They don't require as much bag to be inside it to work - so this thing wastses about an inch on every bag (which really adds up). With the lift top styles you can use other bags. I always resealed my cereal bags, chip bags, and such after every use - and it was simple. Good luck getting cereal bags to go into the slot on this and trip the sensors. For packaging treats for kids I used to buy the really cheap foldover sandwhich bags and just seal them for a second - not a chance with this style...

2) Creating your bag with this unit is really clumsy compared to the regular units. You have to...

Best purchase ever
I bought this Foodsaver, not just for the sealing of the bags, but also for the sealing up of my canning jars. You can purchase a regular or wide mouth canning jar adapter, and with a single lid, seal up things like chocolate chips, nuts, croutons, brown sugar, and dried fruit. A neighbor of mine showed me (and let me taste) some 3 year old apples she had done this with and they were more perfect than those we dried and saved the normal way just this last fall. She also showed me some chocolate chips from several years back that looked perfect. We're excited about the prospects. The machine itself is a beautiful addition to our countertop. The adapter cord is retractable, and the plug in can be neatly stored underneath. It seemed to use a very small amount of bag when sealing, about one inch on each side, and was easy to use right out of the box. I still need to figure out the quick marinade, but the booklet that came with it seems to have very easy to follow instructions. Very...
