Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

My rating goes up for responsiveness. My only complaint is the lack of instructions. If anything changes, i will update my review.

The vs does a double seal to ensure the bags are fully sealed. It has a built in bag cutter for making your bags any size you want.

It’s a valuable addition to our kitchen, not only for sous vide cooking but also for freezing meats and poultry safely. Streamlined, not bulky so easy storage.



Cons

Either seals and doesn't vacuum or doesn't seal and vacuums. It looks sealed but it pulls apart easier than a zip lock. The anova bags are sub par and did not seal correctly from the beginning. Neither produces sealed bags that stay sealed more than a...  Read More

Inside of machine is now splattered with lobster juice. Gonna try a 16 meat unit next. We now have three deer hanging in the barn and cannot process them because this sealer won't work.

Major drawbacks of this vacuum sealer are the significant amount of unused bag space it leaves behind. The issue of liquid escaping from the bags is a major annoyance. While it seems easier to clean than others if you get any liquid in the tray where ...  Read More

Quality


Easy to use and seals consistently well.


Excellent product, easy to use and great to freeze any meet.


Worked great for five months, minimal use and then failed.

Price


I would highly recommend this sealer and for the extra $ would go with the pro vs.


Powerful, easy to use at a great price point.


Granted, each of my previous machines were $99 (costco price), but this machine impresses.


I will say that the official bags are overpriced, 3rd party ones work just as well and can be half the price.

Shipping


It came so quickly, easy to use and great instructions!


I contacted the anova customer service center; the agent collected my information, provided a return label, and sent a new unit...  Read More


Update - contacted anova, they responded almost immediately (i was impressed) with a preprinted label to return old one and sai...  Read More


Update - took a while, but good news.

Packaging/appearance


I had bought smoked sausage in bulk that i already had in my freezer, i vacuum sealed all of it, then i had 24 boxes of cereal ...  Read More


The downside is that she's vacuum packed almost everything that's not moving.

Competitiveness


This sealer works much better than the other brand name we used.


I’ve tried a number of different ones over the years, and i definitely agree with the wirecutter that this is the best!


I sent this back and decided on the nesco.


Can use other brands of bag rolls with it.
