This product is a replacement for my brand name product which started leaking at the seals. It would either fail to get to vacuum and therefore never try to seal, or would take a very long time getting that last little bit, only to allow air to enter while sealing.
No problem I think to myself, I'll order some replacement seals...as I did 3-4 times with my previous brand name sealer before. Only problem? The current $200+ sealer, had seals that were not replaceable! So now after just shy of two years with it, it was now trash and not repairable. Unacceptable!
Honestly, I never liked the ergonomics of my replacement name brand model from the start. You had to hold the bag with both hands and press two corners of the start button at the same time. It was always a PITA. I'm glad my marriage to it is over.
Now enter the Potane. The reviews were great, the product was smaller in footprint and attractive. The price was also less than half the name brand. Based on the reviews, support was easily accessible. Frustrated, I took a chance and ordered one.
I can not be more pleased so far! No, it doesn't have a fancy bag storage area or bag cutter. It does, however, remind me of my first sealer that you could lock the lid to flatten or rearrange food in the bag before vacuuming and sealing. It's no frills, vacuums quick, and comes with a replacement seal in the box! I think it's both quieter and faster than my previous two brand names ever were.
To summarize, it's worth the money to me so far. I'll only keep my old sealer around to store bags and use it's cutter feature to make bags for the Potane.
