Vacuum Sealers
-
So I am nearing the end of the life of my 3rd vacuum sealer in 20 years and this time I am not going to waste my time on another foodsaver. Anyone have any experience with the Vacmaster 350pro? I am leaning that way but really like to hear any input from what everyone is using.
Thanks for your input!deplorablenc1 I have a Vacmaster pro350 and love it. I’ve had it less than a year but it gets used a quite a bit. I make snack sticks anywhere from 2 to 4 times a month and I usually get about 16 bags to seal up. As long as you don’t try to use Cabelas “new” bags that are mesh style on both sides it will work great. I only use Vacmaster bags and no troubles at all.

Doug Kapfenstein thanks! I am really liking that option. It’s good to hear all the good reviews about it before I dump the money on one.

Thanks for your input!deplorablenc1 A buddy of mine just bought a Weston 2300 we used it on deer sausage this yr. that thing worked excellent never had to wait for it to cool down like foodsaver and never sucked any juices like the foodsaver, only thing it needs is a cutter and roll holder…I used my old foodsaver to make the bags and he vacuumed them, as soon as my foodsaver takes a crap I’m going with one of those…

Thanks for your input!deplorablenc1 i strongly suggest a chamber vacuum sealer. Ive been using vacuum sealers at home and for my buisness for about 20 years and chamber sealers are in a class of their own. Vacmaster makes some of the best ones and i understand they are more money. I just found this sorta knock of brand one: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F222798051664
It would im sure last you several years. Any liquid soups or marinades this thing is king. Toss a steak in a bag along with a marinade and vacuum seal it up. 30 minutes and you have a juicy beautiful piece of meat!

lamurscrappy ANother thing in favor of the chambered vac sealers is that the bags are a fraction of the cost of the chamberless ones! Depending on how often you use it you can make up the price difference pretty quickly!

Jonathon oh ya without a doubt much cheaper. It really does pay for itself either for home or commercial use.

I bought a chamber vacmaster vp 120 from waltons over a year ago, and it works great. just don’t get nothing inside the bag where it seals the bag.

I set an alert on Craig’s list for chamber vac. Took a while but sure enough one popped up and we grabbed it for a steal. We did 200# of sausage without a hitch. After we went through 3 vacuseals we gave up. You won’t regret this purchase. -
I bought the vacmaster vp215 three years ago and we love using it. We package all our meats and veggies using this. I use several different sizes of bags and buy them in large amounts and the savings are huge.
You can even do stews or any thick sauce foods since the chamber has a sloping bottom.
