Precision Vacuum Machine,Pro Food Sealer with Built-in Cutter and Bag Storage(Up to 20 Feet Length), Both Auto&Manual Options,2 Modes,Includes 2 Bag Rolls 11”x16’ and 8”x16’,Compact Design

Well, after many hours of reading reviews of who knows how many dozens and dozens of other vacuum sealers available on Amazon....I decided to give this Potane vacuum sealer a try. Now considering it would have to "live up to" my old reliable FoodSaver vacuum sealer that worked absolutely flawlessles for over 26+ years....and lost it in a house fire. And with food prices going up week after week, I had to get another and start "storing up" all that I had lost.So far, I've used this Potane on the first day for maybe 3-4 hours. I made dozens of sealings making smaller bags from the 11" roll without a hiccup. Every seal was solid. The second day of use, probably used it for maybe 2 hours straight. So far so good. Every seal was good and solid. Today (13Nov21) I just finished up using it for probably 4 hours, almost near continuously. No problems or issues.The suction I must say, is far better than my previous vacuum sealer. It pulls nice and tight against whatever you're sealing.....so be cautious if your sealing food with "sharp" edges. As its drawing a vacuum, work the food within the bag to kinda "smooth" everything out if you can.My one of my concerns was "would the included hose with the Potane work with my FoodSaver jar sealer attachments I just received??"....YES, I've sealed over a dozen jars flawlessly! Even the regular mouth sealer works. No problems, every one sealed in one vacuum rotation. I ALWAYS had sealing issues with my previous sealer using the jar attachments, especially the regular mouth.I really, really like having the single pull down handle to close the machine. My previous one you had to close the lid and press two tabs on either end of the machine while holding down the lid. Kinda awkward at times. With the Potane, you know that the lid is down and locked without question.The built-in bag cutter is nice, my previous unit did not have that. Making bags is a lot quicker using it. I also like having the in-machine bag storage, which again, my previous unit did not have.Potane also included a roll of 11" and 8" each and my advice to anyone reading this.....BUY MORE BAGS right off the bat!! You will go through them very quick like I did.One of the pro's of purchasing this unit is the "5 year warranty" that is stated. If it's true, then I have no worries for the next 4 years 11 months 24 days. That's a "wait and see" issue, and I hope to never have to hold Potane to their written word.The cost of the unit wasn't as costly as my first unit (back when vacuum sealers were first on the market and I got mine sometime around 1994-5?)So, in conclusion....I am very impressed and pleased with this Potane vacuum sealer machine. It was worth the cost and I can only hope that it will last me a long time. I don't expect 25 years like my FS, but only time will tell.

How have I done without this vacuum/sealer!!?? LOVE IT! Simple and easy to use right out of the box! I would give it 6 Stars if that was an option. It doesn’t need a lot of storage space, it seals quickly and completely. It is pretty self contained so no worries about cleaning it and losing parts. Highly recommend it for family use!!

I had purchased a few Potane canisters previously that sealed very well and were easy to clean.So when my $300 "Commercial grade" vac sealer died I needed a port canister/vacuum bag sealer because I seal food storage containers most of the time. When I sous vide fish,chicken and meats, I don't vacuum seal the bag until it's finished cooking because I make an open bag from the roll long enough to immerse the bag completely. This prevents floating bags during the sous vide process. So this machine works as advertise so far, only time will tell. Just make sure the lid door is locked tight or the machine won't vac or seal. Appears well made and thought out, takes up less counter space at a reasonable price and 5 year warranty

It performs very well. Has a bag holder and built in cutter. Manual is easy to understand. Seals great, but I don't know about the long term seal for stocking yet. Doesn't over heat. Above average design and performance. Haven't needed to take advantage of the extended 5 year warranty yet, so I can't comment on how that will be handled. But, a 5 year warranty is also better than average. At this point, I would recommend.

This machine works great. I am very happy with it. Only one issue, the well is not removable for cleaning. When you are sealing things with liquid, the well fills up and you have to clean it while in the machine. Otherwise, I am happy with it.

I purchased the Potane vacuum sealer originally May 30, 2022. I read tons of reviews on different brands, models, etc. I finally decided on this model because of the five-year warranty, the suction power, the wet/dry setting, and the canning attachment. Since getting the unit, I used it 2-3 times a day for everything from sealing chip bags, sealing cheese, keeping coffee fresh, freezing meats, and meal prepping. I literally use it all the time. The maintenance has been minimal apart from cleaning the gaskets and wiping down the machine a few times a week or after liquid spills. It has been amazing for all my kitchen needs. It’s also easier to use - much easier to lock the lid and clean than my friend’s Food Saver!In February 2025, the heat sealer starting to malfunction and wouldn’t switch on in Automatic mode. In March 2025, the heat sealer failed completely, and the vacuum was not pulling despite cleaning all the gaskets.I reached out to Potane through their website. They replied back not even 24 hours later, despite it being a weekend. They helped me troubleshoot, and after we ruled everything out, they quickly offered to send me a replacement unit under warranty.I was shocked when a new unit arrived not even a day later! I was all prepared to freeze my ground beef the old way using zipper bags lol.I cannot say enough good things about the company and the vacuum sealer. The new unit is covered under the original warranty, and if it eventually wears out (which is reasonable since I use this thing literally all the time), I won’t hesitate to buy another vacuum sealer from Potane!

Bought this to replace an old Food Saver model that died. This has a compact size, is very quiet, easy to use, and seals much better than my old one. It appears to be a quality product and I looked forward to using it frequently. I love this comes with a 5-tear warranty, most I looked at only had a 1-year warranty.
