I have had an earlier generation FoodSaver (I think it was a V3880) for 5 or 6 years, needed to replace it as the marinate/accessory system was getting weak. I really like the improvements this model has, it's quieter and the sealing the one side of the next bag is a longer overdue feature. The feeding of the loaded bag is much improved. Great machine.

The accessory seal tool has been used daily to seal canned puppy food so it doesn't spoil. However the overall machine design of the machine is bass awkward. I had to create a 3" high platform to reach the suction area to seal foods. Whoever designed this sealer never cooked a day in their life!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice unit. Very impressed with the pulse feature, never had that before. Not too happy with my delivery service. Carrier dropped at edge of road in rain 150' away from house with no notification of delivery. Would have given a 5 star otherwise.

I bought my first Foofsaver in the late 1970's and had used it continually until a few months ago! Who can complain about the quality of an appliance that lasts 40 yrs! I have saved so much money over the years, I feel like my new one was free! I love all the new features and look forward to many more years of savings! It's convenient to use and the quality of foods saved just can't be matched!

I've owned a foodsaver for over 16 years. The 5460 2 in 1 system is the best one yet. I saw the tv commercial and ordered it the same day. I love it and it looks great. The sleek design looks great on my kitchen counter. My last foodsaver finally broke after 11 years. So thank you for making an exceptional product.

This machine works well and the height (like other reviews mentioned) is not really an issue. If anything, use a thick cookbook to be your third arm. This is my first foodsaver brand machine and I am very impressed with the suction power. My biggest issue to that I'm concerned with using the amount of plastic I'm using, so I cut a cm too short and end up having to remake a new bag. Other than the learning curve. I'd say this machine is pretty darn good!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just had a chance to use my newy purchased fm5460 FoodSaver machine. I had an old vacuum sealer machine and it was okay but wasn't that great. This one is awesome! Bag making feature is easy and convenient. Pulse vacuum seal feature LOVE. AND I LOVE resealable quart bags that you use assessory vacuum pump on. Great when you buy in bulk to freeze/store food for later use. Love everything about it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgraded from an entry (inexpensive) model and couldn't be happier. The bag holder/dispenser is a great feature and my observation is the vacuum part is more powerful getting a more complete vacuum. I sous vide so getting more air out means items are more likely to be submerged when cooking. If you sous vide, buy up a price level or two, you won't regret it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love mine after @ 2 years started having issues so I need to send it in for service ( I’m told it would be replaced with a new unit actually and not repaired, how awesome) thankfully it has a 5 year warranty I’m told. But before I could send it off I bought a new one since I just can’t be without one fir the 2-4 weeks they say I can be without it. Oh well I’ll have a spare and I got it on sale

us it weekly no problems Some have had issues with the containers I have 6 of them and never had a problem been using this one for 2months. Have been using food savers for over 20 years. Also have big game food saver . Like this one better easy to use and less bag waste
