Chambered Sealers

johnsbrewhouse Yeah, the initial cost is the main barrier for most people to purchasing a chambered machine. Once someone has made the switch they are almost always happy with it as it is capable of removing more of the air and it does liquid a lot better. I always try to tell people that depending on how often they are going to seal the price difference between a chamberless machine (food saver type)and a chambered machine can be recouped fairly quickly with the cost savings on the bags. This is because the bags are smooth on both sides and are easier to manufacture.

Jonathon That and after you buy multiple external machines after they wear out, that prices comes to add up significantly in the long run. I was on my fourth Foodsaver machine and I didn’t buy the cheapest model either. Plus with cutting primals and wrapping my own meats at home, I end up doubling the work, so that I would not pull liquids when sealing.

I rolled the dice on a ebay vac chamber sealer it works just fine probably better than a 1000 bags through it changed oil after first 100 bags, going strong, at $400

Thanks for the info. Will look into that supplier. Have upgraded all my equipment from Walton’s so far and the prices and deals have been incredible. But, no inventory on the VP215? Jonathon, Austin ?PapaSop Did you end up pulling the trigger on unit yet?

I did not. Waiting to see what Walton’s sealer looks like, and the price point. I’m sure Jonathon will put it through it’s paces and then go from there.Definitely getting one. Would love to have it come from Walton’s. Everything I’ve bought from them has been outstanding. Quality all the way.

I have a waring chamber vacuum sealer I love it took some getting use to . I Have had 4-5 food saver sealers the sealers were not that bad but the price of the bags was a killer and availability . The difference between a regular sealer and a chamber sealer is like black and white. So much to list how long you can seal the price of bags the quality of the seal time after time I could go on and on my chamber sealer the chamber is not that big they say you can seal up to an 11’’ bag but I can seal up to a 13 1/2 ‘’ Bag. the Vac Master I think is probably top of the line but for the price the waring is a great machine. I have two things I wish it had though is one a place to wrap the cord second is that it did not run as long just to make a bag but I use a old $99 dollar food saver to make my bags and save wear and tare on my chamber sealer.

Larry Macaluso Thank-you for your information. I have a food saver backup and run a Weston 2300. Just looking at the pluses for a VAC chamber And more importantly the best one for the money. Your insight would be appreciated. Thanks. Joe

Jonathon and Austin, Firstly, I hope you are both feeling better after Covid. Secondly, I thought Waltons had their branded chamber vac out around Christmas? Or was I drunk? Much like PapaSop, I am pulling the trigger on a chamber vac soon. Of course, I’m being a loyal Team-Orange guy, especially since Orange is all over this Company’s web presence… John… I’ll be getting a Walton’s from well… Walton’s. -

JoeB Was looking at the Primavac but will wait for the Walton’s model. It’s an Orange thing.

Larry Macaluso That is a great tip to use the cheap foodsaver for bag making. Thanks

I have been looking to purchase a P200 Multivac chamber machine. Has anyone had experience with this machine? I do know it is a little more expensive. I don’t want to regret my purchase and wish I bought a different machine.

P200 Multivac
I don’t believe it is available in the US. It is a commercial machine. I am very happy with my VacMaster VP215. I researched a lot of chamber sealers. I chose the VP215 because it fit my needs and the chamber size, It is 1" taller than most models inside. Once you start getting into the larger capacity machines, their weights really go up as well. The VP215 weighs in at 84 pounds and the VP 320 weighs in at 220 lbs. You really need to look at what you are going to use it for. You will find the majority of the machines out there are all now made in China. The one you are looking at is made in Germany.
