“Foodsaver's vacuum foodsaver advanced design is great!!!”

I love my food saver. My husband & I use it regularly. I do suggest getting a extended  if offered.  We had to replace ours right after the warranty was up. No auguring about replacing it. We have saved a lot of money buying meats on sale (and or in bulk) and vacuum sealing it ASAP. I vacuum seal...

“FoodSaver Brand - Think ahead...”

I owned a FoodSaver (Vac550) for over 10 years and got very reliable service out of it.  As noted here all FoodSaver bags and accessories are expensive, but what burns me is the availability of parts.  Mine had to be replaced because a three buck gasket isn't sold by the manufacturer.  I thought...

“Great Money Saver!”

“not a good value”

This is my third sealer and all did not last because of a two cent strip of tape that customer service will not make available. They do offer a new machine at 25% off. Can do better than that at local merchants.

“Works wonderfully”

I bought this for my parents for Christmas one year and they loved it.  They always cook way too much food and are always trying to find ways to store it for later with out it getting feezer burn.  This was perfect for them.  They can buy in bulk and not have to worry about the money being wasted by freezer burn.

“Another GREAT product !!”

Ok .. our last foodsaver (the 550 model which is probably about 10 years old) finally bit the dust a couple weeks back.  We bought one of the "newest" models that sits upright (for lack of better words), where you have to put the bag in the front slot to seal it.  Well, what a pain.  I really preferred my older model without all the gadgets, bells and whistles so I returned that one and looked around for a not so new model.  We ended up purchasing ours on line *******, but Sams has the same type) and it is a model V2830. We have loved it from the moment we took it from the box and started using...

“The Food Saver sealer needs to be standard in every kitchen.”

I wanted a sealer for a while but was not sure which one. All the stores had several on display but I never bought. I seen the Food Saver action on TV one day and saw everything it could do and I was hooked. I bought the Food Saver and it became my favorite kitchen toy. I was opening things just to reseal them. Features like moist food seal and crushable food seal make the Food Saver one of the best ever. you don't have to worry about sucking juices up into the machine or crushing fragile foods like cookies. Also Food Saver has accesories you can get to use with it and they are very handy too.

“Foodsaver vacuum bags work greaaaaaat!”

   Foodsaver vacuum bags and plastic rolls work great. I prefer the rolls because you can customize the size you need. I have not found out how much time they extend the amount of time you can keep meat in the freezer because I have never opened a package that was bad. Some of it has been over two years old but you would never know it. I have used it a lot when buying chicken, ground chuck, steaks and other meats when on sale. Foodsaver alows us to take advantage of items on sale and buying in bulk. I use them when I process my venison, also.

“Excellent Sealer”

I tried a Regal vacuum\sealer and it did not work at all. I got this one and it is great. I like having the moist\dry selection, used for strawberries. Much better results

“vacuum sealer”

Vacuum seals food easy. Seal wrap stores in the sealer unit and it is hand free. Has been improved on greatly. Also had a tray to catch any drips -- which is removable and easy to clean.

“Money & time saving wonder!”

Basically buy meat and other Items on sale custom packages and freeze The new ones have a moist setting so liquid doesnt get sucked into the vacuum part of the machine still becareful with it I get around the liquid limitation by freezing the liquid first in an appropriately sized container. Once frozed solid, I pop it out & vac bag it. I like to freeze the meat that I buy on sale in some sort of marinade so that when it's thawed it's ready to go. It's a little messy, but if you're doing a bunch of meat at once it's a single clean up. I have a Food Saver, with the on board storage for a roll &... read full review »
