After looking at different brands, reviews and stores, so happy we bought this one! We bought it to buy bulk for our chest freezer, it’s been 3 months and still doing the job, we have stuff in there from 2 months ago and no freezer burn. It did take some practice using but after few times, easy peasy. You can use other bags (like food saver) as we have the large roll you can customize which is great.

We finally decided to buy a vacuum sealer and this one seemed to fit the bill for low cost, small footprint and quality brand name. We have not been disappointed. Works very well and it is easy to use with rolls or bags

Don't have any experience to compare to, but for the price it seems like a great deal. Was able to easily vacuum seal then cook steak using the Anovo precision cooker. Great combo!

so I use this a lot. You have to be careful if you are vac sealing anything with liquids. It still works you just have to push "seal" quickly when the liquids start heading towards the sealer. You have to step up to around $600 to get a sealer that handles liquid without manually intervention. I make large chilies and soups seal them in small portions then freeze them. Sous vide 2 to 4 person servings. I season steaks then vac seal the steak and fridge age it for 2 days before cooking. You can dry age meat for 30 days no problem but there can't be any liquid when in there when you dry age. I literally use it 3 to 4 times a week

Works very well & easy. It also only takes about 20 seconds to store an item. Can use any plastic bags to seal foods for storage.

The size of this sealer was perfect for our kitchen. Fun and amazing to use!
This was on sale when I purchased it and i absolutely love its ability to vacuum seal any food item you want. Inside the box it comes with 10 vacuum seal bags and I purchased two rolls of the same brand of vacuum sealer bags that you can cut to any size you’d like to fit the food item

I use it once a month for my meats. It's been a great. I even use it to take the meat out of its gross container and put it in a bag.

It works great. We used it to pack quaternof a cow and it didnt give any problems. Just make sure you cut bags properly for accurate seal

I bought this sealer mostly for the ability to seal individual cuts of meats from larger loins, roasts, etc. I have been extremely happy with the performance; it's quick, quiet, and easy to do. My only message to people looking into this sealer: This is only for dry, minimally damp items and not for wet items like soups or maranades.

The Anova is an upgrade from my previous vacuum sealer. I can't give it a full 5 stars as I don't feel like it seals as tight as I would like, but that's also a personal preference. It still seals properly. Pros: -Quiet -Size/weight -Easy to clean -Reasonably priced Cons: -Doesn't seal as tight as I personally would like -Would like a detachable cable.

Vacuum sealers don't last long at my house. I don't think I'm particularly rough with them. I just think the pumps suck and not in the good way. I spent over $200 on the last one and when it burnt out, so did I. I really didn't want to buy another one. Well then I got a sous vide and found out rather quickly that I needed another vacuum sealer... Since vacuum sealers don't last long at my house, I decided to go cheap and found this one on sale. At around 1/4 the price of my last one, why not. But I didn't expect much. What a pleasant surprise this machine has been. This thing has been a dream to use. The pump has been excellent and the sealer works great every time. I have had no problems with this machine and it's small size makes it easy to put away. I am happier with this machine than I was with the last 4 name brand units I had. For bags i went online and bought a couple different sized bulk packs of generic pre made bags. Easy and it cheap.

Cant get any easier to use. Small in size so it fits in any drawer, it is about the size of a box of zip-lock gallon bags so we keep ours in the drawer with those. So far we have had no seal breaks and it is nice that you can manually determine how much air to pull out or just have the machine auto detect and seal.

I purchased this to seal my cats food airtight bc they are picky and won’t eat food from a bag that is been open for a month. This machine works perfectly and seals wonderfully! I have had this for maybe over a month, and all bags are still sealed, and the cats also approve the food is fresh! As the directions say, don’t seal over creases or wrinkles bc air does leak in. So don’t seal over wrinkles. Simple. Highly recommend this product!
