While many sing the praises of the many great features, some say the seal fails after a short time.
Price
Yes, it is more expensive than your bottom-tier vacuum sealers but it was very much worth the extra money.
So much so, that when i saw it on a black friday sale, i purchased one for my sister.
No big deal, just hang out for a few minutes and continue sealing once it has cooled.
Packaging/appearance
Allows me to add more food, not packaging or containers, to my freezer.
I packaged 2 deer within 1 hour with this machine.
Competitiveness
It worked with several different brands of sealing bags.
Have had other well known brands that just didn't last or work as well.
Had another brand for years but this was far better, especially for the price.
I choose this model because america’s test kitchen pick it as best.

One needs to use care not to let it suck in fluids so use a bag that is long enough off of a roll so that the bag gets sealed before any meat juices or other fluids get sucked through the lip of the bag and into the machine
