Great job! A rather short video with a lot of useful information. My machine has been in storage for years and I completely forgot how to use it. I am confident now. Thanks

I have this very same model. I buy food in bulk, and this vacuum sealer allows me to prefeserve foods far longer than using standard freezing methods. Not too long ago, I had a steak that I had put away two years ago. After allowing it to thaw in my fridge, I cooked it on my grill. It tasted very fresh. Looking at the current cost of food nowadays, I'm pleased that I've used the Food Saver to preserve my foods.

After you cut a bag press the seal button and it will seal the bottom for your next bag.

My daughter just bought me a food saver, sort of a mid sized one and I’m afraid I’ll mess it up somehow…me, the person who drove a huge Budget truck loaded with furniture with a tow dolly and a Miata on the rear from Cali to Texas….is afraid of a food saver. I wish I knew someone near by that has one, but I don’t. I’ll get it figured out. Eventually.

Hi Amy, I just got this unit, a new box of the 11 inch 2 roll packs & extra pre-sized bags from a friend. I have owned 2 Foodsavers for more then 10+ years. Found one at a Thrift Store for $15 once (still got it). I also have a Cuisinart vacuum sealer (caught sale at Macys). Yes these are so needed. I use them to assist some Seniors in my community & re-pack food into smaller bags. Thanks for sharing, Rhonda

Amazing that yours works. Mine is such a piece of junk. It's a higher end Foodsaver & it worked for a while, on & off. I kept thinking I wasn't doing it right, so I'd go on KZfaq and THEY couldn't get it to work. I bought all kinds of rolls & bags & spent a fortune. You're one of the lucky ones if yours works consistently. I just got it out to try to freeze some TJs frozen french fries. Nothing I could do to make it work. I held it this way & that way & changed bags & rolls. Nothing made it worked. It just made the noise like it was. I held onto this piece of garbage too long to be able to return it. It's going in the trash.

I just received a vacuum sealer which I purchased and will soon be using it to seal the food I want to put in the freezer until I am ready to cook it. I like the part where it can even remove air from jars also, but I may not be using that since I have a canning machine to put away fruit in and other items also.

I just so happened to watch somebody else that was demonstrating how to make bags and that person didn't realize as well that you can press the seal button before you insert the bag in this way you're not making it go into vacuum sealing mode and then quickly cancel out of it.
I spent countless hours looking for a vacuum sealer with REAL DEMO of the BAG CUTTER because I struggled with it and apparently I am not the only one because the BAG CUTTER SUCKS!! The perfect equivalent analogy is trying cutting scissors without fingers. Every video on YT has been edited to exclude the bag cutter so I am assuming kitchen shears is best since it doesn't work?

If you have those chicken breasts already sealed in the plastic, why not just keep them all in the package to have that extra seal of plastic and then put them through the food sealer? Since I always use all of them at once, I just keep them sealed in the store bought package, and then seal them in a food sealer bag. it is less time consuming and frustrating when everything is more even. Recently, all the store had was 5 and 3 pound rolls of ground beef, so of course I have to separate the beef into patties or sections and then put them in the foodsaver. But just to be even extra safe, I then put those in the freezer ziploc bags. Does anyone else do the above, or get what I am saying? When you use the foodsaver, you should be able to store beef up to 2 years, versus 6 months.
