Customer Ratings & Reviews

We were excited to to get this, after using straws to manually extract air from Ziploc bags for years. Excitement turned to disappointment on the first use. It worked intermittently to extract air; we thought it was user error, but we were doing the exact same thing each time. With the included test bags we managed to get a few partially vacuumed using the auto setting but they still had air inside though sealing function worked. There was no liquid, simply small steaks and chicken. We used the sealer a total of 3 times and on the 2nd use it would only extract air once out of every few tries. It does a better job of vacuuming on the manual extract and manual seal. You have to make sure you have adequate distance between top of the bag and top of your food. I know we were using it properly because once in a while it would work. On the 3rd use we couldn’t get it to vacuum at all, nothing, nada, zip, zilch, with the provided bags. Must have tried 20 times with different bags. Didn’t work on automatic or manual. I guess we got one of what appears to be many lemons based on similar reviews, had to return it.

Not Impressed, single seal, didn't vacuum well at all, would cause bag material to crease and allow an opening for air. Returned for the Pro model which has been great

Product has no ability to vacume seal items that have any size although if used for small items then works adequately but I am disappointed that's It not able to ve used for my applications

Very poor quality Had for about two years used a dozen times or less . And kept in box no damage very low wear and tear . Seal works still but Vaccum does not work anymore. Vaccum never really worked well from the purchase . Cheap Bought it for 100 bucks I feel like for that price point it should last atleast to years especially being used less than 5 times a year . Wouldn’t recommend any anova products after this purchase

This sealer stopped working properly after only a few uses. Unfortunately my return period ended so I'm stuck with this lemon. It does not give a full vacuum half the time, and the other half it doesn't seal. Do your self a favor and go with a trusted brand.

Doesn't work at all!! Doesn't vacuum. I watched a video and still doesn't suck the air out of the bag. It's a straight forward process but doesn't work

I purchased this in the store today in Rockford. I tried to seal corn. Terrible product. It did not take all the air out of the bag. I had to cut the bag and try it with the bag smaller and it still did not take the air all the way out. I would NOT recommend purchasing this. Hopefully I can return it without hassle

I read the reviews before I purchased this vacuum sealer and they were not the best but I decided to try it anyway and returned it. This sealer stoped working the same day I brought it. Look for a different brand.

I have no idea why this stopped working..... It was great for a few months and now it will only seal and not make the bags airtight - super disappointed. Did not have this for very long, purchased it in July.

I purchased online and received last week. I TRIED to use for first time Sunday 8/27/2023, Needless to say it didn't even heat up. I will be returning this item, as soon as I can get to Dover, DE

Broke after just a few uses but past the return policy. There are better ones on Amazon

It does not work. I am so irritated. Will not vacuum seal any air out of the bag. I wasted three bags thinking perhaps I was doing something wrong. Watched a few youtube videos to make sure it wasn't me, and nope, the product is faulty. Super irritated because I puchased meat two day ago I wanted to seal tonight.

This worked fine the first two times I used it. Now, it will only vac and seal the first 2 or 3 packages. After that, the vac feature does not work at all. I hope I can return it and get my money back. Pretty useless like it is.

This device is GARBAGE do not waste your money it barely seals and does not vacuum. This was the worst purchase i ever made

Steer clear of this! Only lasted me seven months before the seal/ vacuum portion failed. I only bought this for use with my Anova sous vide machine and used it fairly minimally. I'm buying another more expensive brand and buying a different sous vide brand when the Anova I have inevitably fails.

I hoped to replace my worn out $$$ Food Saver with this unit. However, it does not hold a candle to my faithful worn out Food Saver. Took back and got another Food Saver.

I was so excited to get the Anova Precision Vacuum Sealer, only to get a product that did not work. I had to return it to the store.

IT'S NOT A GOOD ITEM AT ALL SO PLEASE DON'T BUY IT SAVE YOUR MONEY THE VACUUM SEAL DOESN'T WORK . I SHOULDN'T EVEN GIVE IT 1 STAR BECAUSE IT'S NOT WORTH A STAR

Horrible sealing does not work you are better off buying zip lock bags it’s the same thing

This worked great for the first few months and then it just stopped working. Total waste of money
