In using the deni freshlock unit with their bags I have found that you get what you pay for. Within 48hrs., I found air had made its way into the bags. tried it over and over same results. so much for vacuum sealing .

I own several Deni products. This is the most dissapointing. It doesn't vacuum all the air out. I even returned it for a replacement & I expierenced the same problem. This is going into the trash & I'm getting another FoodSaver.

In spite of the poor reviews, I thought I would take my chances with this item because of Amazon's great return policy. I should have listened to the the reviews. It didn't vacuum straight out of the box, and I returned it immediately.

I picked this up for $25, knowing it wouldn't be industrial strength, but I figured it would do what it claims.

This thing is TERRIBLE. You might as well take $25 out of your wallet and flush it down the toilet. Or, better yet, send it to me!

I tried repeatedly to seal dried apples and some grapes. The vacuum is very finicky and takes quite a few times to get it to work, and even then it's really weak. I could live with that, but 20 minutes later, the seal is gone and it's as loose as if I just put them in a sandwich bag. I tried another roll to make sure I didn't have a bad roll. I re-read the instructions to make sure it wasn't "user error" and tried over 30 times, and EVERY SINGLE BAG lost its seal. I even tried sealing a bag within a bag and that didn't work either.

I wish I could give no stars or even negative stars. I can't believe a product this shoddy can be legally sold. Don't waste your time with this one.

I just purchased a FoodSaver V3440 which is five times the price, but it works EVERY TIME and is a pleasure to use. I wish I would have done my homework and gotten the good one first.

Bought it, it fell apart. Threw it in the garbage. Tried to get help from the manufacturer and they ignored me. Be warned....

Pros:
- Looks nice
- Plastic has a white stripe specifically designed so you can write dates and names.

Cons:
- It is so hard to use.
- Vacuum does not work.

Overall - Too bad, this thing just does not work! How did this product passed into production phase, I just don't know.

I bought a Deni sealer many years ago and once I actually started using it I've never ever been happy with it. As stated by others, it does not vacuum all the air out of the bag (no matter how long you give it to do so) and it's a pain to use it.

I'm replacing it with a Foodsaver 2240. Enough said.

This thing came with a roll of very flimsy plastic material that needs to be sealed on 3 sides. When sealing the plastic sticks to the hot wire that accomplishes the seal. If the machine actually removes any air from the sealed package it wasn't noticable. I shall spend the extra bucks to buy a FoodSaver instead.

This sealer is junk. As a mechanical engineer of over thirty years experience, I'll say it again, this sealer is junk. Don't waste your money or time. they should be ashamed to sell this POS.
