What are you using? I thinking about getting one mainly for freezing meat.
Thanks

Snatched one up from Sams Club. I think it was a Foodsaver brand.
Love it for BBQ and meat, not so much on fish or skrimps.....
I was gifted a Vacmaster chamber sealer. The thing is big and heavy. I will say that it does a great job, but for the amount I use it, it is not practical.
Go to foodsaver website and shop away. I could not do without one. The one I have now is bout 7 years old or better
Gettin old is for pussies! AND MY NEW TRUE people say like Capt. Tom >>>>>>>>>/
"Wow, often imitated but never duplicated. No one can do it like the master. My hat is off to you DRDUCK!"
I've got a foodsaver that is 5+ years old. Works great for the most part. My biggest complaint is that if you are doing a lot of sealing that it will overheat and you will have to sit and wait for it to cool down. Like I said mine is several years old and there are definitely nicer and newer ones available so that problem might have been fixed. Otherwise it works great and mt buddy just used it last week to seal over 60 birds in 2 bird packets so he could eat throughout the year
Food saver brand. Not sure which model. We’ve put it through the paces though.
Bags are more important that the vac sealer itself. Don’t go cheap on bags.
Foodsaver and their brand of pre-cut bags. Damn good stuff!

If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever.
Missing you my great friend.
Are the pre cut bags a big deal? Just easier to use?
Sams and costco have Foodsaver brand machines and bags, im going on 12 years on mine.
We have a Cabelas pro model and use WalMart brand bags. I’m upgrading for higher volume. I posted the cabelas unit in trading post. Make me a fair offer.

Most will have "wet" and "dry" settings. I always use the wet setting. Seals the edge hotter and longer. Some of the thicker bags won't seal well on the dry setting.
Ziploc brand bags in the roll are a little cheaper and much heavier than foodsaver. My sealer has an area that holds a roll with a slide cutter to make any size bags you want quickly. I highly recommend that.
