Chamber Vacuum Sealers

I bought a vevor this summer and it is awesome for the price. Of all places Home Depot had it the cheapest,it was like 330.00 shipped to me.
I was looking at the bigger one they sold and decided on this for a couple reasons. One is price, I could buy 2 for the price of the other one. It had so many good reviews and was small enough I can move it around easily.
I cut a salmon filet in half and put the two halves in a half a bag.the chamber isn’t big enough to fit a whole one easily.
The heat bar has a great feature my buddy vac master in Alaska that I’ve used a lot doesn’t have. It has a stainless bar that flips down in the bag to hold it once you let go and it keeps from getting the little wrinkles in the end that sometimes happens when the bag is really full.

I bought the "Meat" chamber sealer last year when they had a black Friday sale. It's been good, and has worked as it should.

Another Vacmaster VM215 here. Would buy again.
At the time (quite a while ago) I researched them all and picked this one. We had gone through a number of the non chamber type, but wanted to be able to vac liquids.
We bought a heavy duty cabinet (Ikea) with a slide out shelf to put it in that lives in the kitchen. We had to put around 75 lbs of weight in the back of the cab base to keep it from tipping over when pulling the sliding shelf out. If I remember correctly the vac unit weighs around 80 lbs.
Breaking up bulk buy foods and prep for freezing of game/fish of all sorts are the main uses.
We bought bulk bags, both cook in (for Sous Vide and boil) and regular and have yet to run out.
If I had it to do over I would have bought all cook in bags, smaller and larger, so there was no checking to see which it is before using them for cook in.
Once we got the times (all are adjustable) set I have not done any maintenance other than changing the oil every couple years.
