Purchased recently and have used. Love it but obviously bigger and a little more complicated than our orig one; that just place - press & done (husband a little intimidated). Now dont get me wrong - I do love it and all that it has to offer; I just haven't had to use them yet. I just hope it last as long as my first one - which was several years. :)

My mom needed a new machine so I was looking to buy her a new one. When I saw this one I decided to buy it for me and give her my old one (which wasn't all that old). Anyway I am loving this one. There is much less waste of bag and you can see where the tip of the bag is when you insert to vacuum, then just push the bar & it vacuums & seals. I've used the attachment for my Sandwich & Snack Containers and it seals better than my old one. Only issue is my hands are bigger and it was a bit tricky at first to pull the bag out of the bottom when I want to make bags. Also just added a new roll and it was a tight fit. No reason to knock off a star. Looks a bit daunting at first but there are plenty of stickers on it to show you how to use it and the videos on the website show you how also. Once you use it it's a piece of cake. It's a bit on the pricey side though.

Very pleased with the performance. I've purchased a small freezer to supplement the tiny freezer with my refrigerator, and wanted to purchase more items but didn't have the room. This is perfect, and I know my food will stay fresher longer because of vacuum sealing.

I had a 5-year-old model of this food saver that I used a lot. It broke and I had to replace my food saver. This is the updated verson and I love it. It does so much and very easy to use. The price was great. I highly recommend this model to anyone who buys food in bulk and needs to store it in refrigerator or freezer.

I love my new food saver !! This is number 3 or 4 for me over they years. A few years I got a new one just so I could hand the one i was using down to my daughter-in-law. Gave my daughter one for her birthday a while back as well. I have used my food savers for wild game, garden veggies, good buys at the market and left overs. Just can't do without in now.

This model is great. Making the bags and sealing them are so much faster and easier. The canister and container attachment is so much better. I really liked my others model but this new one is fabulous. I haven't found anything I don't like. It takes up less room on my counter top. Very happy with it.

I bought this item almost a month ago and it has performed satisfactorily thus far. Time will tell---in regards to flexibility of gaskets, rubberized/plasticized parts, and the lasting duration of the vacuum aspect of the unit. I have filled my freezer with vacuum packed steaks, burgers, bacon, etc. Now for the time-test to see whether these items suffer freezer burn or not.

Bought this last month and so far it is awesome! It works better than the last one I had it takes out all the air out of the bags my other model would not hold the suction and would get air in the bags. Love this one for taking out the air in my cheese slices to stay fresh longer. Love it

I bought this FoodSaver because I am retired and I buy in bulk from GFS a local public restaurant supply store. I buy either a Strip streak, Rib-Eye, bundle and pork loin bundles and cut my own steaks and boneless pork-chops and roasts. I have steaks and chops that will last 2 months without freezer burn nor ice crystal forming on them.

It sucks,even my neighbor agrees. Wanted one of the flat design, you sent me this so called update, I wanted one of the flat ones, had couple of those, this so called new design really sucks, Twice as long to operate when it works, Had a couple of friends try it they couldn't get it to work on a regular bases, something wrong with the electronics. Never again
