Once exposed to air, ground coffee quickly looses its flavor and aroma. The vacuum pump extracts the air from the Vacuum Coffee Saver container so that the flavor and aroma of the coffee will be kept fresh.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great coffee saver, May 31, 2008

This well constructed polycarbonate container maintains a strong vacuum. Coffee's greatest enemies are heat, light and air. The container protects from light. The vacuum mechanism, while simple to use, maintains an airless environment for coffee storage. Also these containers can be used for other food storage. Really, a well made product.

I've owned this product for about two months now. I was initially disappointed to find that it did not keep it's seal over the course of the day most of the time. What made it work as advertised is to periodically (once every couple of weeks or so) rub a small amount mineral oil on all of the gaskets with my finger (both the canister gaskets and the air remover gaskets.) I've done this for the last month now and have yet to find the seal diminished when I open it up in the morning.

The previous poster has it right. This device has made all the difference in my coffee enjoyment and I thought I'd post my experience with it.
I used to only grind enough beans for the pot I was brewing. This made drinking coffee a production! But, since I've been using the Vacu Vin coffee saver (for about 2 years now), I can grind about a weeks' worth of beans at one time, and the last pot is as good as the first.
Also, the initial expense is more than made up for in the constant freshness of my fresh-ground coffee.
