INKBIRD Sous Vide Bags Kit, 44PCS - 30 BPA Free Reusable Sous Vide Bags for Anova, Joule and Other Sous Vide Cookers with 3 Commonly Sizes Bags, 5 Clips, 6 Sealing Clips, 2 Air Valves,1 Electric Pump

The sous vide vacuum bags are very durable, really easy to seal. its smaller than a coke can. No cords make it a lot faster to take out and use than a traditional vacuum sealer.

i discovered sous vide cooking a couple years ago, it’s amazing what you can do with this, i can turn the cheapest pieces of meat into the most tender roast, or a tough roast into a juicy steak. the secret is in the vacuum bags, you seal the meat in a bag, pull a vacuum on it and depending on how warm and how long you cook it is what you get out of it, i’ve even turned a 7 pound pork loin into the softest juiciest pulled pork you’ve ever seen. the bags may be the secret, but they are also the ongoing cost of using this system, and the bag prices are all over the place. this particular set has a good value for the number of bags, and comes with a vacuum pump. these bags are durable, and have kept meat fresh in my deep freezer for over two years. i see a lot of people say these bags (all the bags with the blue zippers and blue seals are basically the same no matter which vendor is selling them) don’t seal well, let’s look at how they work, when you use the vacuum pump on the bag, it tears a little slit opening in the blue seal allowing the air to be vacuumed out of the bag, the blue seal is supposed to be self healing by simply pressing on it afterwards, but that is wishful thinking in my book, know what fixes it and is cheap insurance? a little piece of scotch tape, that’s all you need to keep the bags sealed in the freezer, and it even stays on when you put the bag in the sous vide tank to defrost it, no ice in the bag while frozen, and no water in the bag while reheating. i’ve only had one bag leak and it’s because i dropped it on the floor with frozen soup in it and cracked the corner of the bag. 4 stars instead of 5 because the pump is a dry bag only pump and does not come with the liquid separator attachment

Bags are great, pump doesn’t work

First off and this should be obvious. Do not use if there is water in the bag. This unit is a vacuum and will damage. I use this for all storage of food. But the main reason is for my steaks! I pre season the seaks and store until ready to cook. Then I throw in some water and Sous Vide them. This setup has helped me out. For the price this is a must have!

The pump to vacuum seal the bag I used broke the first time I used it when it pulled liquid out of the air seal when I was trying to vacuum seal the bag. The liquid was pulled up into the pump and now it is broken. This is useless and no one should buy it.

Bags are fine. Pump is not. The pump lasted for about 5 cooks. Small volume of liquid was sucked through the bag vent and maybe this was the cause of failure.

How I am happy to see my food air tide and preserve air tight out. Makes hamburgers last months in the ice box last long. Green salad last long. I am so happy. I recommend this

I have now had these for a while and I really like them. They are sturdy and the valve and pump are really helpful. It took me a couple tries to learn how to use it, but now it is easy. I do always double bag items though, as on two occasions, out of dozens, I have had water leak into one valve if the clips that hung the bag failed during long cooking sessions, 2-3 days.
