Bonsenkitchen Vacuum Sealer with 40 Vacuum Bags, Fast-Compact Vacuum Sealer Machine for Sous Vide Cooking and Food Stay Fresh up to 6x Longer (Silver)

Great tool, works well and easy to use

I had a similar unit from one of the popular discount stores. While sealing worked fine, the suction was so weak that i ended up just squeezing the air by hand and then sealing the ouch. This is the reason why i purchased this unit.I am really impressed with the suction! I'm using it for Sous Vide cooking and this machine exceeded my expectations by a lot!If you are looking for a decent vacuum sealer, this is the one you are looking for and the price is very attractive for the quality you get too.Instruction manual is clear, operation is mostly automated (so you press one button to suck the air out and once that part of the process is finished, sealing of the pouch begins automatically).It comes with a roll of a plastic sleeve to make the required length pouches and a few already sealed pouches. I have tested rolls from a discount store as well, got similar results so getting more of the plastic sleeves/pouches is not a problem.All in all: Surprised with the quality for the price.

At last I've found a vacuum sealer machine that actually works. I've bought two that had to be returned because the vacuum seal didn't work on either and on one the lid wouldn't close properly. There are loads on the market, some a lot more expensive than others but so many of them have the same complaint which is that the vacuum sealer doesn't work. They all seem to come from China so I suppose it's to be expected. This seems to be produced by an American company and I'm very happy with it so far. Very easy to use.

The media could not be loaded. Why did you choose this product over others?:I’ve been really pleased with this vacuum sealer to date. It comes with 40 bags in 2 sizes which is good to have to get me started. Despite reading the manual, it took me a few attempts before I can master it correctly. But once you get the hang of it, it’s actually quite easy to use. Food freshness:My main purpose of using this machine is to seal broth and soups for the freezer which i find it such a brilliant way to portion it and store them in blocks to keep them fresh and prevent from leaks, especially with raw meats like chicken. Quality:I can say this vacuum machine is robust and it gives you the options to pause and vacuum till you get the desire of air removed. I also tried to use roll vacuum bags and it works providing you seal the end first. Sealability:This vacuum process takes about 30 seconds to remove the air and seal everything tightly. Overall, I can’t live without this vacuum machine, it a such of game changer. No more leaking meat fluids and messy freezer drawers. Love this purchase!

What a wonderful machine and very simple to use. Wish we had bought one year's ago.Would certainly recommend it.

Well made device at a reasonable price, bought it to stop freezer burn on food. Time will tell if this works.

We all know that mass production leade to items missing reject shoot my star rate is not a fiNAL REFLECT ON ITEM AS NOT JAD A CHACE TO REALLY UUSE YET BUT ALL SAID AND DONE THE PRICE OS NOT CHEAP 8D SAY ITS MEDIAM PRICED AND I DID HOWEVER TRY IT OUT ON A BAG OF HERBS IN BOTH THE CEAL BAG AND A CLIP LOCK VACK SEAL AS I OIKE WEN I TEWT ITEMS TO THINK OUT 5HE BOX QS IT WERE HERE IS WAT HAPPEN THE HERBS IS IN A SNAP CLOCED RACTERY BAG JUST A NORMAL SNQP LOCK SO I DON3 MY OWN MINI QUALITY CHEQUE I LEFT HEBS IN ORIGINQL BAG.

Up to now this machine is just what I need. I've used the pulse seal which you press for suction to take out as much or little air as required great for soft food. The design looks very professional, it is much quieter than my old machine. The seal function is good. I would recommend this machine
