This thing works! I've been hesitant ever buying one of these things because I never really thought they'd be that good. I've been trying to be better at saving money buying certain things in bulk and figured why not give this thing a try and see if it helps me out. I'm glad I did. I bought this one sale with a few rolls of bag film so that I could make my own size bags as needed. It has been a blast to use, and so far seem to do a fantastic job at what it is meant to do - SEAL the bags.
I've packaged all kinds of meat (steak, burger, fish, chicken, turkey and pork). Not one issue with any of them. I've also packaged some things on a more temporary basis like vegetables just to see if it helped me extend their life - and it has. My freezer is now well stocked with proteins, and my fridge has a drawer full of fresh veggies that I indulge on when they are on sale and now can actually use before they go bad.
Now, for the bad things about this unit - which I assume will be similar to ANY piece of equipment meant to do this same thing.
1) Make sure you dry out the inner part of the bag after you fill it where the seal is going to be. Even the slightest bit of moisture will prevent a good quality seal. Just do it, even if you don't think you need to.
2) The bag cutter works, but it's not the best in the world. Make sure you line it up straight, hold it down tight, and slowly cut across. No quick actions here, it's not a paper cutter! Be careful, and it works well.
3) Give it a rest period on large jobs. It does get hot and if you're filling 10 bags quickly it becomes hotter than I would like it to. Just give it a minute to cool down and I'm sure it will last a long time. I have never had it overheat, or stop working, I just noticed that it was warmer to the touch than I liked after abusing it with a counter full of steaks.
4) Clean it! It is a vacuum after all, and there is a possibility it sucks out some juice as it goes. I've only noticed a drop in the tray with all the meat I've done, but it was chicken juice and I wouldn't want that staying in there uncleaned. There is a small concaved chamber behind the sealer - just check it and make sure it's clean. You'll be happy you spent the 1.5 seconds to do so.
5) Not necessary, but I do with it came with a bag, or a case of some kind. Just to minimize any clutter. Definitely not a deal breaker, but just an idea for an upgraded model maybe :)
All in all, I love it and wish I would have gotten one a lot earlier.
