Review on FoodSaver V4840 2-in-1 Vacuum Sealer Machine with Automatic Bag Detection and Starter Kit - Safety Certified - Silver - 18.80 x 9.50 x 10.60 inches by Joseph Quade

Spend more money to get this machine. I got the device at half price and about 90% of the vacuum packs leaked after 24 hours. I sent the block back and got this one. To date, after about 20 sealed packs, there are no leaks. The unit works great, easy to seal, easy to vacuum, has made it a staple for vacuum cooking and so far it's been fantastic. The reel seat and retractable knife make it very easy and convenient to use. The only downside to this device is that it's a bit bulky to permanently store the meter.
