Review on VICARKO 30 Vacuum Zipper Bags - Vacuum Sealer Bags for Food Storage - Reusable Bags with Double Layers - BPA Free - Combo Size by Brenda Quiroz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

THE WATER BATH METHOD IS BETTER BUT IT WORKS PERFECTLY WITH IT!

This works quite well, especially for removing air from bags that are mostly flat (e.g. with sauces, soups, flat bread). I use this device and then get the perfect de-airing using the water bath method: after using this device to suck the air out of the bag, leaving a tiny corner of the bag open, submerging the sous vide bag in water. slowly underwater. As you push the bag deeper, the water pressure pushes the air out of the bag. When you have completely submerged the bag in water (except for the open corner), close the open corner of the bag and remove the bag from the water bath. You should end up with a sealed bag that looks "vacuum sealed". The suction + water bath method provides a perfect seal, as good as the FOODSAVER machine but much easier and cheaper.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Very expensive
