Bonsenkitchen Vacuum Sealer with 40 Vacuum Bags, Fast-Compact Vacuum Sealer Machine for Sous Vide Cooking and Food Stay Fresh up to 6x Longer (Silver-Black)

Why did you choose this product over others?: I’ve been really pleased with this vacuum sealer to date. It comes with 40 bags in 2 sizes which is good to have to get me started. Despite reading the manual, it took me a few attempts before I can master it correctly. But once you get the hang of it, it’s actually quite easy to use. Food freshness: My main purpose of using this machine is to seal broth and soups for the freezer which i find it such a brilliant way to portion it and store them in blocks to keep them fresh and prevent from leaks, especially with raw meats like chicken. Quality: I can say this vacuum machine is robust and it gives you the options to pause and vacuum till you get the desire of air removed. I also tried to use roll vacuum bags and it works providing you seal the end first. Sealability: This vacuum process takes about 30 seconds to remove the air and seal everything tightly. Overall, I can’t live without this vacuum machine, it a such of game changer. No more leaking meat fluids and messy freezer drawers. Love this purchase!

I would recommend this product to anyone considering buying it. I was a bit skeptical at first because of the price but it works great and actually sturdier than I thought it would be, and the bags are decent sizes as well. I froze some skewers and it did not puncture the bags like i was worried they would, actually find that the bags are great quality. The machines pulse setting allows you to chose how much air to extract from the bags and it seals great. If youre big on sustainability then you can wash and reuse the bags after the food is defrosted, which is always fantastic - just seal right at the top of the bag and make your way down until you cannot anymore. It genuinely makes a difference regarding meal prep and saves time. I just dedicate one day to marinating everything and freezing it ready to be unfrozen during the week. I found that the food defrosts nicely in the bags as well. Overall, would highly recommend :)

As a single man living on his own I found myself envying families who were able to get more value for money by bulk buying food such as meats. I could feel myself being swindled by the local family owned Tesco who would laugh at me for not being able to get through excessive amounts of food a week. Well not anymore, now I can bulk buy as much food as a family of 5 and save just as much money. With this bad boy you can lob meats into a little bag and seal it up. Once sealed just launch it all into your freezer and then your friends will be confused as to why the entire top freezer drawer is filled with frozen chicken instead of the ice that you told them was in there.

Although it's a bit noisy during operation, it's a useful and high-quality product with very good vacuuming power. Thanks to this, I can keep products fresh for a long time, and I can also use it for cooking. The airflow is good, and it shuts off automatically.

Needed an urgent replacement for a dinner party and this seemed to be a decent step up from the basic ones and i'm delighted to say it is. Solidly built and very easy to operate. Seals tightly and creates enough vacuum to prevent water getting in from sous vide bath. The included bags are decent quality and increased the value of the package. Pretty happy overall.

Very impressed with this sealer. Excellent value for money and very sturdy. Great suction when choosing the vac and seal option - wish I'd got one years ago, I have used it so much in the time I've had it.

Broke after 5 months, don't waste your money

So far so good! Easy and straightforward to use - it has made a couple of odd noises, but I think that was possibly due to 'user error'. I grow vegetables in my garden and decided it would be a good investment to get one of these to reduce wastage, keep the veg longer and create more space in the freezer. Its also useful for sealing up leftover snacks in family packs (obviously not necessary when husband is home...) I've already vacuum packed the last of the season's harvest plus various wraps etc., and the cat is wisely keeping its distance. Also ordered replacement bags plus bag rolls for larger items.
