  • Very surprised with the nice results.
I got a food saver +$200.00 vacuum system, but this one is really good and simple to use. It's superior in quality and functionality and the price compared with my previous purchase. This one worth every penny when packing seeds and fresh meat because the double sealer system and enhanced vacuum option. ... show more

  • This Vacuum Sealer is Worth The Money
I've played around with a few vacuum sealers from Amazon but this one has actually worked as advertised. It worked with several different brands of sealing bags. It's easy to figure out how to use, and the cutting tool works excellently. Also, I didn't have any problem with the sealing heat strip. Yes, it is more expensive than your bottom-tier vacuum sealers but it was very much worth the extra money. I hope it lasts me several years. ... show more

  • Superb build quality, simple to operate, very fast evacuation, extremely high vacuum seal
It is a superb product in every aspect. My first test was with a pair of 1/2” diameter foamy earplugs in a 8”x10” bag. The seal was completed in 10 seconds after which the ear plugs were compressed to less than 1/8” thickness. The ratings of this Nesco sealer support my evaluation of it.

  • Good Sealer
I had a Food Saver that was about 20 years old. While it still worked, it was starting to have issues. Did a lot of research and settled on this Nesco vacuum sealer. I put it right to work with about 50 bags of venison sausage, snack sticks, pulled pork, and ribs. It appears to be pretty heavy duty, but a little bulky compared to my FoodSaver. I like the stainless accent. It has great suction and the lid seal works well to prevent air from creeping back in, especially when using the pulse feature. After vacuuming and sealing you can hear air rush in when the lid releases. Love the fact it includes a pulse vacuum for when you are vacuum sealing liquids or softer items to prevent leakage or crushing. The double seal is the best feature. With my old FoodSaver I found myself sealing twice on each end to create a double seal to reduce chances of leakage, but with this one you just seal once to get the double seal. When reviewing various sealers I was a little concerned that the depth of the suction tray was too far back and would require using longer bags wasting roll material, however, the front edge is slanted so pictures are somewhat deceptive and it didn't take much extra length to reach. I often buy 50' bulk rolls that won't fit in the roll storage compartment (same thing with almost all sealers). However you can put the roll behind the sealer and feed it through the gap between the lid and under the cutter (saves from having to transfer material to another roll to make it smaller so it will fit). Now to things that weren't as good, although mostly minor: when you close and lock the lid there is a delay before you can push a button; it is fairly slow in making a seal; it includes 3 seal options, 2 of which are single and the last is double seal but each time you turn it on it defaults to a single seal and you have to push the button twice to select double seal (I suspect most will use the double seal so would be nice to have it as default); you have to push the buttons just right to get them to work, just because you hear the click doesn't mean it worked; the lift up cutter arm blends in making it hard to see when it is up and I often forget to put it back down when trying to close the lid; the drip tray isn't removable to wash but it is easily accessible to wipe out; while it came with a 8" and 11" bag roll, the 11" roll had wrinkles throughout the roll (would note with the double seal it didn't appear to cause issues). the sealer sits up a little higher which can require longer bags, but this can be remedied by putting something in front that is a similar height to lay the bag on; it doesn't have a cancel button in case there is an issue and you want to stop it; you have to wait a little while between each seal to allow the heat strip to cool off (others I've used you could do several seals before you had to let it cool off; I found that if I label each bag as it completes it was just enough delay to then seal another bag so I wasn't wasting time). While it could be improved I still believe it is a good sealer and would recommend it to others looking for a quality sealer with great suction and a true double seal. ... show more

  • Rated "Best Overall" by Good Housekeeping
Ok, I ordered it. I know this is not a review yet but it will be. After extensive research, I have chosen this brand and model. While many sing the praises of the many great features, some say the seal fails after a short time. The seal is replaceable. And, there are instructions about how to use the device so as not to damage the seal. So, I will be trying it out this week and revising this review periodically. ... show more

  • Awesome Sealer!
I bought this sealer to replace a Food Saver that I'd used heavily for about 15 years. The Nesco didn't disappoint! It offers many of the features that I had grown to love with the Food Saver -- namely a built-in cutter bar, a storage area for 8" or 11" roll material, and best of all I can use my Food Saver brand Mason jar sealer attachment with the Nesco's canister port. That is an important feature, as I store dry goods and vegetables/herbs from my dehydrator in glass jars with vacuum sealed lids. The Nesco offers several options for sealing (normal, moist, double) and regular or gentle pressure. I find that the double sealing feature adds time to the sealing process but I have yet to have a sealed bag leak air or lose its seal on either the normal or double seal setting. That said, sealing a bag using the Nesco definitely takes longer than the process with my old Food Saver. For that reason, I highly recommend purchasing pre-made bags. With a lot of vegetables or fish to bag and seal, the time saved with the pre-made bags is considerable. The unit is basically plastic so doesn't feel particularly sturdy but it appears to be well engineered. Being plastic, it is light weight and has a small enough footprint to easily store on a counter or pantry shelf. ... show more

  • Lasted way longer then any food saver I have owned
I have had this for 4 years and when I say we use it a lot I mean a lot. Be buy full ribeye roast and cut them in to useable portions, bag baby food, left overs etc. I have owned a few food savers and have to replace them about every year I always said we use it more than most. We go this in 2020 and it still works as good as the day it came home. Super impressed with the quality. It does take a bit longer to use but the seals are better and so is the vacuum ... show more

  • Great Food-Sealer, weak gaskets
Overall, this is a great Food Sealer, does everything it says on the tin. Especially like the well-done manual suction mode and the double-seal function. However (there had to be a BUT), the weak point of the Nesco Sealer is the gaskets. They last 6-9 months then no longer hold a seal. You should "baby" them by not storing your sealer with the top clamped down, but eventually they will fail. Fortunately, you can now get new gaskets right here on Amazon for $12 or so for two pairs (i.e. two full sets of gaskets). I just put in a new set, works great. We'll see about longevity with the new gaskets, anything over 6 months is gravy. Anyway, this is a well-priced sealer, but budget yourself extra gasket money, $12 every year or two. ... show more
