Vacuum Sealers- Looking at getting one.

I'm looking at getting a vacuum sealer. What are you guys using and why?

Looking to butcher a hog soon. Plan on also using it for deer, fish, etc etc.

What about bags, any preference on those?

A chamber system is a lot better. But they are also not cheap
Not to mention they take up more space.

I roll with this

I also use off brand bags/rolls. The bags are just as good as the name brand bags and cost a lot less.

They're great for sealing fish fillets right after cleaning fish.

Got this:


A little pricier, but love it so far. Has a 'express bag-maker' that seals the end of the roll after cutting. So one less step in the whole bag-making process.

I got a foodsaver when they first started getting popular, maybe 20 years ago. It crapped out on me about 5 years ago so I got a new one which is still going strong. I buy flour, sugar, meats coffee etc in bulk and portion everything out. I swear by them.

That is one we have and love it. The first foodsaver machine we had kind of sucked.

I have a vac master 215 v.
It’s a nice sealer and gets a lot of use. Needs some occasional maintenance.

How long have you had it? Just got mine recently, after my first one finally crapped out after X-Mas.

They're great. Just don't let it and a foil pan fall from the top shelf of the cupboard and try to catch the foil pan and let the vacuum sealer land on your foot. Scraping and bruising your foot for a week and a half. Just saying.

Some good suggestions in here. Seems like food saver is pretty common. I’d spend 300-350 on one if I knew I could get a lot of use out of it. I don’t want to keep buying cheap shot boxes as I don’t want it crapping out when I need it most.

If you are thinking about it for sous vide, you can purchase the sous vide part and cook your food in freezer zip lock bags. This is a bit of a pain as the bags tend to have some air and then they float. But you can check out what the food is like.

Obviously not relevant if you're just looking for food storage.
