I have this one, it's an older model but has worked well for me. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I normally buy the rolls and make my own bags. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

I've had a love hate with vacuum sealers. Finally found one I love. I think the game changer was that newer ones have a clamp to lock it down for sealing. The biggest pain in the ass is closing the lid then finding out the top of the bag wasn't set properly. I had one that wouldn't start unless it felt the bag to caught properly. I think the clamp has made a big difference. I'm guessing more modern versions now have it.

The Dyson Ball Cleaner has a misleading name.

We've had a Foodsaver for several years and get a lot of use out of it. Buy meat in bulk when it's on sale and vacuum pack it.

I'd prefer to do rolls and make my own bags as well.

I've had a FoodSaver for a long time. My original one died about a year ago, so I got a new one. It works, although it can be tempermental. Amazon has pre-made bags on sale for pretty cheap but carefully check the size. One bad part of living in Alaska - one company that sells 40 gallon bags for about $30 charges me $97 shipping to Alaska. Don't know why they can't just put them in the mail like everybody else.

Was a bit pricey but I bought this last year, use it all the time. I've had to many < $100 models crap out on me so I splurged a bit.

Food saver and I use it mostly for sous vide.
I use the name brand bags because I’m slightly worried about what plastic chemicals might come out during the sous vide. I use it a lot. You can safely cook meat by getting it above 130 degrees for over an hour. So you can safely cook chicken and sausage without drying it out. I sometimes lightly sear the outside on the grill when I’m done.
