Review on ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ O2frepak 100 Plus Quart Vacuum Sealer Bags - BPA Free, Heavy Duty, and Precut for Food Saver. Ideal for Sous Vide and Vacuum Sealer. by Troy Zelazny

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Definitely not comparable to branded FoodSaver bags

I use vacuum bags for freezer storage and also for vacuum cooking. I sometimes have a hard time finding small, pint-sized packets in local stores. Running out of money I decided to try these that are sold at O2frepaks Revain. Although O2frepak sachets are cheaper than FoodSaver brand sachets, the sachets sold by O2frepak were a huge disappointment. The structured side of the bag doesn't have the same type of channels as other bags, so they don't vent during use. vacuum sealing process. But the bigger problem is the problem of sealing, or rather the problem of the lack of sealing. Heat seals do not hold well, are inconsistent and need to be renewed two or three times to ensure proper closure. To make sure the issue was with the case (and not my device), I ran a few tests side-by-side. Comparison of O2frepak bags and FoodSaver brand bags. In every case, O2frepak bags had to be resealed and reheated multiple times to maintain a tight seal, while branded bags sealed evenly on the first try. If you're very frugal and want to buy those cheaper bags - and don't mind the seal failing or having to reseal the same bag multiple times - then this brand of vacuum bags might be for you. But due to constant sealing problems and insufficient vacuum, I will certainly not buy them again. To me, those two "disruptors" aren't worth the small cost savings, so I'll stick with it and buy FoodSaver brand bags.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Can be damaged
