🔧 Weston Pro Series Vacuum Sealer Maintenance Kit (08-0501-W), Part Kit for 65-0101, 65-0201, 65-0401-W Review

The Weston Pro Compressor is a great machine at a great price. However, if you use it a lot or all day, you MUST ORDER maintenance supplies like heating tape, pads, and healing pads! If you don't do this and use your machine for a long time, you are in for downtime!

The product does not last long and does not work as expected. In the beginning it fit and worked. But after a month and maybe 20-30 items sealed I had to work really hard to get the seal. After the second month they didn't work at all. They are not the same as the originals. I spent $30 and now had to buy original Westons. Save yourself some money and don't buy this

Price, $34.99, outrageously inflated by Weston for 2 pieces of teflon tape and 2 foam gaskets. I'm sure they could make a profit selling the $3.49 kit, but what else should I do, throw away my expensive sealant? Installation was easy, less than 10 minutes. When installing the gaskets, first insert the ovals, and then move to the center, being careful not to stretch the foam. Teflon tape is a bit trickier, especially since the adhesive is minimal so it's not worth moving the tape after it's…
