I agree they can be a pain. Trick is to keep the moisture content as low as possible and to make sure the seal edge is flat and clean. Also, do not use bargain bags as they do not seem to work as good.....If you go the Vacuum route, do not skimp on the machine or the bags. Buy the best you can and you will not be disappointed.
They have a liberal return policy so I wont be out of luck if the machine sucks,
I can assure you, they will not take it back if it sucks !!! Only if it doesn't suck !!
