Review on 100 Count Storage Commercial Foodsaver by Jim Booth

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The seal will break over time - the bags are full of air

There will be no visual difference between this brand and FoodSaver. But I had an issue with these bags losing their seal, which is not the case with the FoodSaver. I've mostly seen them fail after a few weeks if I go into the pantry or freezer and find the bag full of air. And that goes for foods that you don't want to lose their seal, like a piece of cheese or a frozen chicken breast. I buy dry cat food in 25 pound bags and break it up into quart sized bags to keep the food fresh. No problem with FoodSaver packages. But over time, HALF of those bags lost their vacuum for no apparent reason. You get what you pay for. Sad.Edit 08/26/19: I am downgrading my rating to 1 star after two bags lost their seal and water got in during sous vide preparation. I used the longest compaction setting on my Foodsaver to make sure it didn't fail too. Not recommended.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly
