| My new purchase, a food saver: Oh, wow. What a great product! I just bought this yesterday. I spent a whole hour playing with it, saving steaks individually, salads in single-serving bags, etc. All I have to do for salad is open up a bag and I'm ready to go! No more wasted produce at the bottom of my fridge. I think the food saver is a valuable appliance that will enhance my new WOL. I just wanted to share with all of you!

| My sister had one of those and loved it but when she ran out of the bags that came with it she was too cheap to spend $50 to replace them. I wish I'd have asked her to give it to me. |

| Here in CO, the bags are less than ten bucks for a new roll.

| DW uses the freezer ziplocs and seals them with it. much cheaper. For big stuff still use the rolls though.

| My DH has been wanting one of these as long as I've known him. We just got a freezer, so maybe I'll finally break down and buy one. Which brand did you get?

| I recently bought one to replace my old original one, which still worked fine but took both hands to operate. This new one is hands-free, stores the roll of bag material inside and slices it off too! I just love it and we use it WAAAAAY more often than the old one, just because it's so convenient to use it. We also use a lot of the cannisters for coffee, produce we don't want squished etc. They will also reseal many different bags - i.e., some kinds of chips, the silvery Carbquik bags, etc. Worth its weight in gold when we do a smoker-load of ribs, brisket, pork shoulder etc. Char

| I have a Seal a Meal because I found it cheap at the Goodwill (brand new, too!) It works fine, but it's definitely a two-handed operation. I've only had it for about a month, so we will see how it holds up. I do think the Food Saver brand is a better one, from what I've read and heard. I do love having it! Aderyn |
