@@TechMadeEzy we've had a Food Saver vacuum for I couldn't even tell you how many years but it wasn't working properly so we purchased a new one. My elderly Mother decided one day to move the instruction manual and naturally forgot where she placed it so this model has been sitting for over 2 years. The day I commented on your post I noticed that the original one would stop vacuuming during the vacuum process. At that point I went to KZbin and found your video which saved the day! I'm very grateful that you took the time to take the video and post it! I made a very large trip to Sam's Club and trust me I wasn't willing to discard the meat!

This thing is a piece. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. You have to move the food in the bag around a little until the Foodsaver decides it's okay to seal it; you can't have more than 1 or 2 pieces of anything or it will not work. Sometimes, you need to take the bag out, do a little dance, reinsert the bag & it might work. Or not.
@carlavh12 жыл бұрын
Totally totally agree. It seems you can only vacuum one or two pieces of meat items or it will not remove all the air.

I just purchased this exact model yesterday. I actually have the press the vacuum door after i press the long bar to get it to start vacuuming. It will jut humm and try to vacuum until I press the clear plastic vacuum door with both thumbs. this unit I thought would work faster that the 3300 model but it is just a slow. Not sure if it is worth the extra cost. Also the big roll of bags does not fit into the bag area. we had the reduce the roll by 50%

@@TechMadeEzy I don’t have one yet. Have been checking out videos and reviews. Your video was helpful as I said because you made the video after having used the machine for awhile. So many video reviews are unboxing/first use and they don’t know how to use it yet so it’s hard to get a good idea of the performance or features and first impressions can be very different from one’s thoughts after extended use. Been looking at various models and have pretty much narrowed it down to either the 5000 or the 5460, but I’m also looking at the Nesco V-12. Oh, and your Brooklyn is lovely. Thanks again.
