Received today. Made a portion of cheese sausage. Can't use this to seal them as no rings were included as intended! Looks sturdy but can't tell how it works as they didn't bother to include the rings.
They do a good job once you download them. The only reason for 4 stars is that I couldn't figure out how to download it initially. The instructions were a little vague and when I tried to do what they said it wouldn't open to load the staples. I finally played around with it enough to figure out how to download it and after that all is good! Well, if only I needed the extra braces somewhere, but that's not her problem. I recommend it!
I have been packaging pet food myself for many years. Usually 180-250 pounds at a time. When I switched to a meat bag for packaging, I used a tape sealer. There was an error.
I found it a great part for sausage making. I was disappointed when it arrived with no rings. As used and returned. Poor quality control in the shipping/returns department
The product appears to be well made. The instructions for use could be better. Couldn't get him to squeeze the pork rings tight enough to seal the sausages. Probably works well for larger projects, but wouldn't recommend it for sausage.
