WE WERE IN THE MARKET FOR A VACUUM SEALER. WE WANTED ONE RATED FOR COMMERCIAL USE. AFTER DOING OUR RESEARCH, WE SETTLED ON THE DENI. PRICES RANGED FROM $49.00 TO OVER $80.00 PLUS SHIPPING AND HANDLING. OUR DENI HAS PERFORMED ADEQUATELY. WE HAVE NOT BEEN DISAPPOINTED. WE HAVE USED THE INCLUDED STARTER ROLL AND TWO 11" X 18' "FOOD SAVER" VACUUM BAG ROLLS. IT IS EASY TO CLEAN. THERE IS A TRAY THAT HOLDS VACUUMED LIQUIDS AND SHOULD BE CLEANED AFTER EACH USE. TO THE MANUFACTURER: YOU SHOULD HAVE INCLUDED ADDITIONAL FOAM FILTERS FOR THE LIQUID TRAY AS THEY ONLY MEASURE APPROX. 1/4" X 1 1/4" AND YOU EXPECT YOUR CUSTOMERS TO PAY FOR ADDITIONAL FILTERS PLUS SHIPPING AND HANDLING. THE BAG CUTTER SHOULD HAVE BEEN DESIGNED BETTER AS CUTTING BAGS IS PROBLEMATIC.

Bought this for my wife, she is very hard on appliances, read prior review, and ordered it. Works great, cutter so so. But she is happy, and that makes me happy.

I've tried multiple times to vacuum seal meat but the suction fails to evacuate all of the air from the bag. Won't protect meat from freezer burn. maybe I have a defective unit.

I love this. Takes a bit to learn how to get a good vacuum...make sure to keep black thin thing clean. Note to buy actual food saver...not don't...refill. for freezing long term make sure to buy the type with a smooth side and then a rough side. Walmart has excellent buy of 5 rolls for $30ish

I have to say the Deni 1930 Turbo Pump is the worst sealer we have ever owned, it hardly removes any air at all
and we are also having problems getting a full refund from the seller(Buy D Best Inc.)

I will not be buying any more Deni products in the future and will not have any more to do with the seller(Buy D best Inc.)

Turbo Pump Commercial Quality Vacuum Sealer

Got this item and was very excited. After carefully following the directions (which are poorly-written), I was able to sometimes seal bags, but the vacuum was far less than satisfactory.

The sealing operation seemed to work fine the first evening I tried this sealer the next day when I was double checking my methodology, I was not able to get the unit to seal properly. I tried multiple times. No seal, no vacuum.

The night before, I did get a good seal, but the vacuum did not work well. I have several other Deni products and I love them. This is the reason I bought this vacuum sealer above other brands.

If you are willing to give one of these vacuum sealers a shot, there is a hinged vacuum "valve" that lifts up. It is located in the base of the unit (a thin gray bar with beveled ends). One side of the bag goes below it and one side above it. There are dashed lines marked where the bag edge should go. Once that is in place, press firmly on the lid and it locks down. I had trouble doing this on the countertop, but when I placed the sealer on the floor, I could lock the lid just fine. You may have to press hard. The vacuum process begins. Once vacuumed, you are supposed to press down on a gray bar on the lid. This operation seems touchy and does not always work. If you succeed in pressing the gray bar, the sealer light comes on and heat sealing begins. When the light goes off, your seal is complete. Buttons on either side of the unit release the lid when pressed. Only trouble is that I never achieved the combination of a good seal and good vacuum.

I am confident that had the sealer worked properly, I could have done it. Well, I never sealed and vacuumed a bag in six or more attempts. I had two different people try and help me. No one succeeded. Good luck. This unit got good reviews, but I cannot say it ever worked for me.

BTW - everything Amazon did was super great!

the first did not work sent it back $24.00 cost to ship from ca. I could have bought one at the store.

Product AMAZON sent, though in a sealed box, was marked "Damaged" in magic marker all over the box (in black and red ink). Needless to say, the product DID NOT WORK and was sent back for a refund.
