1.0 out of 5 stars FoodSaver is not a reliable product, February 4, 2010

I rate this item zero stars, but Amazon doesn't provide that option.

My purchase of this unit marks the second one in as many months that I'll have to return. The first was never completely assembled, and arrived with parts shaking around loose inside the case. Needless to say, it didn't function and had to be returned. The second unit doesn't turn off the vacuum until long after the package has been evacuated, then the seal doesn't hold.

Not worth the hassle of processing returns until we finally get one that works as advertised... and then, for how long?

5.0 out of 5 stars So Far, So Good, September 8, 2010

I bought this at a local Target store where it was on sale for $88.00. But I didn't order replacement rolls until today because I wanted to make sure the unit worked well and I could operate it successfully.

I carefully read the accompanying tips and instructions and found it worked well to slightly freeze the meat first so no juice would be sucked up during the vacuum process. Since I've never been good at cutting straight lines, I used one of its gallon bags as a template for creating new ones.

The unit performed flawlessly, has a nice design, and its function buttons are well laid out. It's a great concept and one I expect will eliminate a lot of wasted food at home.

This review is from: FOODSAVER V2240BS High Gloss Stainless Steel and Glossy Black Food Vacuum Sealer System Preserver

I bought one of these (I picked mine up at my local Target store) because I wanted to be able to freeze some of the produce from my vegetable garden this year. I've used it several times and it works perfectly. It pulls all the air out of the bag and creates a nice tight seal. It is a little noisy though, not as loud as the coffee grinder but it's definitely not quiet. Since it only takes a few seconds to vacuum seal a bag so it doesn't have to run very long so the noise is not that big a bother. It's relatively compact in size so it doesn't take up much room on the counter and the black/stainless color is unobtrusive and blends well with the rest of my appliances. I'm very pleased with the way this works and would definitely recommend it!
