Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

A nice addition to any busy kitchen, this handy marinating container makes it possible to marinade food in a matter of minutes--instead of hours. Marinating helps retain natural juices, enhances flavors, and helps deliver better results when grilling, baking, or pan searing. To use, simply place food inside, in either a single layer or stacked, pour a marinade over the food, close the lid, and pump out the air to create a vacuum. Pumping out the air causes the pores of meat to open and the juices to get pulled in, which not only creates an even marinade, but also tenderizes the food. The unit offers a 2-1/2-quart capacity, and it works great for everything from meat or fish to tofu and vegetables. It can also be used as a food-storage container. Made of durable polycarbonate, the marinating tool measures approximately 10 by 10 by 4 inches and cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher (top rack only).

Product Description

This Vacuum Marinater performs full marination in 10 minutes and tenderizes the meat. Larger pump extracts air faster.

I had a much older marinator but it finally broke after many years, so I ordered this one. The pump has greatly improved; so much easier. But the bowl has a very stupid design. The bottom of the bowl is not level...it's "humped" whereby the middle section is raised and the area near the edges (where the bottom of the bowl meets the sides) are much lower. I don't get the reasoning behind this! So, part of the meat (the portion that's against the edge) is in the marinade, but the remaining portion of the meat (the part that's not shoved against the edge) doesn't touch the marinade unless you pour a HUGE amount of marinade in the bowl to fill up the entire bottom. Dumb design. I wish I knew this feature before I bought it, but the picture doesn't reveal this.

Flavors the meat fast November 29, 2006
This new larger and stronger model works even better than the discontinued one. The larger size will hold roasts and the larger pump pulls the air out faster. The marinater works great: The flavors of the marinade taste fresher and things like lemon zest really sing. It really speeds up the marinating and tenderizing process.

I found the lid hard to remove because the suction was so strong, but pulling out the whole stopper helps it come right off. The container and lid are very strong and durable, so the problems of the older model have been eliminated. This Instant Marinater is a great timesaver in the home and for the outdoor BBQ.

I had to replace our old VacuVin Instant Marinater because it cracked under the pressure! This new model is bigger and stronger and it is easier to tell when I've sucked out enough air.

If it works, then it's great.
I bought 2. One works and the other doesn't. It does not make a vacume. I think the rubber is lose or something. A 50% satisfaction rate is nt good.
