  • Nesco Deluxe Vacuum Sealer
Style: Vacuum Sealer Size: Kit with Vacuum Sealer Bags & Viewing Lid...
The Nesco VS-12 is a solid vacuum sealer that delivers impressive power for its size. It seals quickly and consistently, even with bulk items, and the controls are straightforward and easy to use. Cleanup is simple thanks to the removable drip tray, which is a nice bonus. Overall, a reliable and user-friendly machine that performs better than expected for the price. ... show more

Much better than the last sealer that I had. I thought wow this is a really good product. Easy to use, does a great job… Now only if I had the hose attachment to do additional things… Then I realized it has that. So this went from really good to Shazam Batman wow! Terrific price, easy to use, as loud as all the others lol has plenty of bags included. Additional bags at a great price. ... show more

  • Saves grocery money
Style: Vacuum Sealer Size: Kit with Vacuum Sealer Bags & Viewing Lid...
Bought this instead of smaller models or the ones on tv (if you order in the next 30 minutes). We would rather spend a little more for something that is going to last. We have had this dealer for a few months with absolutely no issues. It is easy to use for just about any type of food. Once you get the hang of it you can seal items very quickly. We have had meat that was sealed in the freezer for several months with absolutely no freezer burn. While packing the freezer we came across other items in regular freezer bags that had to be thrown out. The only minor (very minor) complaint is the sealing surface is about 2 inches above the counter top leaving 2 choices. One, cut the bags to a longer length or second, get a box from the pantry lay it down against the sealer and now the bag is level with the sealing strip resulting in not having to use long cut bags. ... show more

  • Good Sealer
Style: Vacuum Sealer Size: Kit with Vacuum Sealer Bags & Viewing Lid...
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

  • A really great vacuum sealer
Style: Vacuum Sealer Size: Kit with Vacuum Sealer Bags & Viewing Lid...
When my old Food Saver Vacuum Sealer finally stopped working after several years, I started researching a suitible replacement. I ran across this NESCO Deluxe Food VS-12 Vacuum Sealer. It had a great number of very good reviews, so I decided to try it instead of a new Food Saver brand. So far, it has lived up to its' reputation. I have been impressed with it's performance. Yes, it is made in China, but what isn't anymore? It is well built and has the feel of quality. I have used it only for dry goods and meats, but it has always performed well. It may take a tad longer to heat seal than my old Food Saver, but is still fast. My only criticism would be that I wish you could remove the narrow tray to clean it out easier. I only needed to do that once since I had it (i don't recall what had so much moisture in it) but it was not as easy to clean out as the old Food Saver. I would still prefer this NESCO over the Food Saver. The only remaining factor now is the longevity issue. I don't expect to get a real long service life out of any new appliances today, like I used to, but I am hoping that this machine will last a reasonably long time. We will see. I will update if any major issues occur. Oh, Ddd I mention that was less expensive, too? I highly recommend it. ... show more

  • Buy this vacuum sealer. You won't regret it.
Style: Vacuum Sealer Size: Kit with Vacuum Sealer Bags & Viewing Lid...
This sealer works very well and their customer service is amazing. I've had it for 3 years and I used it a LOT. It is a trusty workhorse. Recently, it stopped pulling a vacuum. I contacted Nesco and asked for advice on troubleshooting the problem. They thought it was the sealing gaskets, so they sent me replacements for FREE. I was well past the warranty period and they didn't even ask when I bought the unit. They just sent me the gaskets. Now, it works like new. I highly recommend this sealer. It's rare to find a company that stands behind their products like that. I would 100% recommend the VS-12 if you're in the market for a vacuum sealer. ... show more

  • Recommended--I give it my "seal" of approval!
Style: Vacuum Sealer Size: Kit with Vacuum Sealer Bags & Viewing Lid...
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

I’ve had the Nesco VS‑12 for about ten months now, and it gets used at least once a week. Since I live pretty far from town and buy meat in bulk, a good vacuum sealer is a must. Mine didn’t come with the canister hose adapter when I bought it in June 2025, but I can't remember if it was supposed to. For the most part, this thing has been great. It seals meat, veggies, and even pasta really well, and I love having manual control over the vacuum. Being able to store either a 8" or 11" size roll inside the machine is super handy, and the built‑in cutter makes things quick and clean. The downside is that a few months ago I noticed my bags weren’t staying sealed. At first I assumed it was my mistake, but after looking closer I found a tiny damaged spot on the heating element. I’ve always stored it with the lid unlocked to protect the seal, so I’m not sure how it happened. Because of that damage, I now have to use the double‑seal option to make sure everything stays airtight. ... show more
