  • GOODBYE ZIPLOCK AND HELLO NESCO
Now THIS is a great machine! I opened it up, plugged it in, had my ribeyes ready to seal, put the roll in - and it worked flawlessly in two minutes! Definitely worth every penny! Does exactly as promised! Perfect size, but not too big! Incredibly easy to use! It sealed in the freshness of 6 ribeyes in 10 minutes! I would definitely recommend this unit for sure! I’m extremely happy with how easy it is to use and I am totally done with plastic bags that leach microplastic into your meats! ... show more

  • Good Sealer
I had a Food Saver that was about 20 years old. While it still worked, it was starting to have issues. Did a lot of research and settled on this Nesco vacuum sealer. I put it right to work with about 50 bags of venison sausage, snack sticks, pulled pork, and ribs. It appears to be pretty heavy duty, but a little bulky compared to my FoodSaver. I like the stainless accent. It has great suction and the lid seal works well to prevent air from creeping back in, especially when using the pulse feature. After vacuuming and sealing you can hear air rush in when the lid releases. Love the fact it includes a pulse vacuum for when you are vacuum sealing liquids or softer items to prevent leakage or crushing. The double seal is the best feature. With my old FoodSaver I found myself sealing twice on each end to create a double seal to reduce chances of leakage, but with this one you just seal once to get the double seal. When reviewing various sealers I was a little concerned that the depth of the suction tray was too far back and would require using longer bags wasting roll material, however, the front edge is slanted so pictures are somewhat deceptive and it didn't take much extra length to reach. I often buy 50' bulk rolls that won't fit in the roll storage compartment (same thing with almost all sealers). However you can put the roll behind the sealer and feed it through the gap between the lid and under the cutter (saves from having to transfer material to another roll to make it smaller so it will fit). Now to things that weren't as good, although mostly minor: when you close and lock the lid there is a delay before you can push a button; it is fairly slow in making a seal; it includes 3 seal options, 2 of which are single and the last is double seal but each time you turn it on it defaults to a single seal and you have to push the button twice to select double seal (I suspect most will use the double seal so would be nice to have it as default); you have to push the buttons just right to get them to work, just because you hear the click doesn't mean it worked; the lift up cutter arm blends in making it hard to see when it is up and I often forget to put it back down when trying to close the lid; the drip tray isn't removable to wash but it is easily accessible to wipe out; while it came with a 8" and 11" bag roll, the 11" roll had wrinkles throughout the roll (would note with the double seal it didn't appear to cause issues). the sealer sits up a little higher which can require longer bags, but this can be remedied by putting something in front that is a similar height to lay the bag on; it doesn't have a cancel button in case there is an issue and you want to stop it; you have to wait a little while between each seal to allow the heat strip to cool off (others I've used you could do several seals before you had to let it cool off; I found that if I label each bag as it completes it was just enough delay to then seal another bag so I wasn't wasting time). While it could be improved I still believe it is a good sealer and would recommend it to others looking for a quality sealer with great suction and a true double seal. ... show more

Great vacuum sealer. Worked well with no problems.

  • Recommended--I give it my "seal" of approval!
I've had two or three FoodSaver vacuum sealers over the years, but when my last one died, I considered buying a Nesco model—especially when I saw the prices on FoodSavers. I do own other Nesco products, so it didn't seem like a gamble. This Nesco Deluxe Food VS-12 sealer seemed to have all the features I wanted, and at a much better price point, so I pulled the trigger and made the purchase. I would say the build quality is better than my previous FoodSaver models. It appears to be very sturdy, yet fairly compact. When you're ready to seal, it locks very securely with the handle (Nesco instructs you not to store it with the handle in the locked position, to avoid deforming the gasket). I found the lock to be better than FoodSaver's. There is storage for a roll of bags, and the built-in cutter operates easily. In the rear of the machine there are tabs to wrap the cord around when storing. You have your choice of variable settings: dry/moist/double seal and normal or gentle pressure. And there are several modes: Vacuum and Seal, Manual Seal, Cannister, Marinade, and a Pulse function. Although it does not come with an accessory hose for cannisters (you can order one), the one I kept from my previous FoodSaver is compatible and works just fine. I have had no problems getting bags to seal. I really like the digital display that counts down as your contents are vacuumed and sealed. All brands of vacuum seal bags seem to be compatible, as are other brands of storage cannisters. The drip tray is not removeable like the FoodSaver models are, but is easy to wipe clean. I hunt, and I seal and freeze game that I've processed, portioning jerky, etc.. I also use it for cooking meat using the sous vide method. Great for marinating and for storing food in cannisters. Also useful for protecting non-food items, such as Sterling silver, from oxidizing and tarnishing. I've even sealed and stored a heavy wool shirt using large pleated bags in order to keep moths from getting to it. My only minor complaint is that it did not include an accessory hose. Other than that, I am extremely satisfied with the quality, the function, and of course, the value. I'm glad I purchased the Nesco model, and I definitely recommend it. ... show more

  • LOVE IT!!
I researched a good vacuum sealer for what felt like months. I had purchased a "name brand" popular one and had nothing but troubles. This one has been perfect! It is so easy to use. Seals nicely! Food doesn't come unsealed in the freezer like it did with my "name brand" one. For the price I am very happy! I needed something to get the job done, but it couldn't be large as I have a small kitchen. This one gets it done with out being big and bulky! Great value and look! ... show more
