5.0 out of 5 stars
THIS THING ROCKS!!,
By Bobby Digital (NYC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Packmate 95000 Vacu-Seal Starter Kit with Handheld Vacuum Sealer and Bags (Kitchen)
The Vacuseal has been one of my best purchases. I initially was going to buy the reynolds unit because it was cheaper, but after reading that it was hard to seal the bags properly, I decided against it. This unit is really easy to seal. The valve sticks out of the side of the zip lock bags, so you just attach the nozzle and it pulls all the air out. Another plus for the item is that the bags that come with it are very heavy duty and they're dishwasher safe. Overall this was a very good buy and I highly recommend it.

Very Pleasantly Surprised!,

This review is from: Packmate 95000 Vacu-Seal Starter Kit with Handheld Vacuum Sealer and Bags (Kitchen)
I bought this after my disastrous experience with the Frisper which I purchased from Sharper Image (and which they graciously accepted as a return).
I wasn't expecting anything for this unit for the price. But I was wrong. Wow! It worked really well and produced a really good vacuum to get all the air out. It is inexpensive, effective, and easy to use - you can see everything that's going on so there are no mysteries. Another plus is that you can stand it up as you seal, so if you have any liquids in there, they won't spill out all over the place. I had a couple of bags that didn't seal. I think one of them was defective or I wasn't able to get a complete seal on the bag. Another one contained cubes of demera sugar and didn't hold the vacuum. I think maybe that's because, between the strong vacuum and the thinness of the bag, the sugar crystals actually punctured the bag. Which brings me to the one criticism I have (thus 4 stars instead of 5). The bags are designed to be reusable because they are kind of expensive after all. (But that's good for the environment too.) I wish they could be made a little thicker so as to be more durable. I'm always worried about breaking them. The one good thing I can say about the Frisper is that its bags are really thick industrial strength things. In fact., when I returned it, I kept the extra bags I purchased. All in all this unit is a great value and I highly recommend it.

I wouldn't recommend this item. Sucks the air out of the bag, then later air is back in the bag. The problem is either with the handheld vacuum or bags. Either way, can this item be return?
