This was a replacement for the handheld version. It rarely works. I’ve given up trying to get it to work.

Terrible
Thisis a very inadequate machine. The top does not stay down and sealed. I have to hold it in place securely to use the vacuum. That may be why the vacuum seal does not work very well. I do not recommend this.

Disappointing performance
Very disappointed. Did not have suction power and options of one I was replacing that I had purchased 17 years ago. Returned and purchased one from different manufacturer.

Love the Simplicity and Size
The force needed to close the unit took some getting used to but it is just fine. There is much less waste of plastic above the seal than that on my fifteen-year old unit. I love that. I do miss the retractable accessory hose. However, I really don't use it much and I suppose I will get used to clicking the detachable hose in as well. Most of all, I love the low profile. i think it is the smallest and lightest model. I can easily slip it into the drawer. I don't miss extra functions such as Gentle and Moist.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
I bought the first sealer which worked for about a week. They sent me a replacement sealer which doesn't work correctly. The accessory attachment don't work well and are extremely difficult to connect. I also bought sealer containers which do not hold the seals. Basically, everything sucks. Don't waste your money.

Disappointed
Disappointed that this food saver does not store the rolls to make the bags. I have to cut them myself. I have been using food saver machines for over 20 years and this is a first.

I cannot see a single improvement.
I have had great success in the past as I freeze a lot of what we produce.This,so-called space saver takes up more room because now I have to find other places to put the roll of plastic and it is much slower hand cutting with scissors. The older models were much more efficient.The vacuum motor is weak and only some of the bags seal and even then ,many still have some air in them.

Great replacement vacuum sealer!!
I have had this for about 6 months to replace a much larger vacuum sealer that I had for several years that had finally stopped working. It is so compact and convenient that I love it and will never go back to the much larger appliance. Great Job!!
