I have a Foodsaver sealer and I love it. One of the more expensive ones I got on sale, with a coupon and another coupon, so got a good deal on it. It works very well and I can attest to the effectiveness. My son went ocean fishing years ago for tuna. One of those sealed packages was lost in the freezer and found 3 yrs later. The fish was almost as good as fresh. I couldn't taste any difference. Oxygen in a freezer package is a food killer.
Ironically the three I am referring to that have broken have all been foodsaver ones as well..! Go figure. They normally broke by losing the ability to keep a seal when sucking (so they would keep on sucking and never reach the poi T where the machine stops) and the last one stopped sealing after all the air was out of the bags.

Now I am wondering if they have improved at all over the last 10 years or so.
