Vacuum Sealer- Which one?

[postman]

Mine quit. If you were going to buy one, what would you buy. Not wanting to break the bank, just one that works well. Thanks.

I have a Caso and it’s been great for the last 4 years, use it a couple times a month. If I were to get another I’d look hard at the Weston line or the Cabela’s ones

I have had this one for about 10 years and I’ve been very happy with it.

Go on foodsaver web site and look for deals

[Smart]

I made my suggestion with the not wanting to break the bank request in mind...

I’ve gone cheap twice and didn’t get much out of them. Bought a Weston off of amazon and it’s been great. Just like everything else, you get what you pay for.

My Cabelas Commercial grade is good but over heats, find one with a internal fan

[Huntindad]

I had a food saver...it wore out. I got a commercial grade Cabelas...It wouldn't seal properly. I exchanged it for another. it had the same issue. I don't use them much during the year, only during hunting season for the most part.

I ended up returning the cabelas & bought a Vac master 215. Yeah, it is pricey...but works great & I don't suspect I will have to ever buy another vacuum sealer.

Thanks for the input. going to check the foodsaver site. Looked at our Academy, they had one on the shelf and it was $150 and dual power 12v and110, thought I wouldn't ever need to vacuum seal anything in my truck.

Can foodsaver brand bags be used with the VacMaster?

Can foodsaver brand bags be used with the VacMaster?

Yes, but you can not use the bags designed for chamber sealers in a food saver

This is the one my wife got me for my birthday. Of course it was on sale this summer and she only paid $550 for it. My guess is some of the price increase is tariff related.

With that, these are the cat's meow.

Invest in a chamber vac. I have the Vacmaster VP 112 and love it. If you shop around you can pick one up just under $500, and your bags will run you from 8 to 10 cents a bag.

[ColinR]

I agree with the vac master VP215 however they have went thru the roof on price. When I bought mine a couple years ago they were around $600 or so, now they are over $1000.

The one Smart mentioned at Academy is the one I have. Works great.
