I have been researching sealers for a long time but couldn't justify the cost. Finally pulled the trigger. One of the best investments I have ever made.
The fact that I can continue to seal bag after bag is nice. With my old sealer I had to stop after 5-10 seals to let it cool down.
For most people who think of vacuum sealing, starting off with a unit like this may seem like over-kill - especially if you don't seal many things. However, once you do start vacuum sealing, you may experience the shortcomings of lesser units. For reliability and convenience this has replaced my earlier units. As you see how well this unit performs you will probably use it more and more frequently - making the investment worthwhile.
I recently went thru 2 Foodsaver Silvers before trading those in for this vacuum sealer. I am very very impressed with the quality of the seal. I had too many bags reopen in the freezer with the foodsaver. It also would overheat after sealing up maybe 10 bags. Very frustrating.
So far so good with this unit! The extra money spent was well worth it!
