Foodsaver Reviews

Sometimes I suffer from instantgratificationitis.  Like I feel that I have to have something right this minute even though I'm fairly sure it won't live up to my expectations and I'll end up returning the thing.  But sometimes the products turn out to be great and I'm happy to keep them.  One of those products is the FoodSaver food storage system. — We shop at Costco about once a month and utilize the FoodSaver as a result of buying their inexpensive but good cuts of meat.  We grill almost every day in the summer so we like to have chicken, pork, and steaks on… read full review »

I LOVE the Food-saver!  Actually, LOVE is not a strong enough word. This product changed our lives, and life style. — I bought the product thinking that it would allow me to save money by buying more items in bulk at my local warehouse store.  At first it was merely for keeping frozen chicken more fresh, and bulk blocks of cheese from turning moldy.  Over time I started freezing left overs in the bags, and eventually built up a stock of items in my freezer.  What a difference it has made as we now find our selves turning to frozen meals that taste as good, if not… read full review »

We rcvd the Tilia Foodsaver V2840 as a gift, Dec. 2007. — This was to replace our older wearing Foodsaver Unit from years prior. — I often take advantage of sales on whole ribeyes, whole beef tenderloins, whole pork tenderloins, ground round, chicken sales, sausage sales, etc. — I'm a Price per Pound, Price per Ounce, Price per Item type shopper.  I like my meats cut to order, which usually has no price for cutting, then I go home & vacuum seal & freeze according to our family's individual needs.  I cook some foods in bulk & freeze in family or individual portions.… read full review »

Like the Vitamix, my Aunt gave me my FoodSaver and this is one of two appliances we keep on our kitchen counter and use every day.  We love fresh fruit but seasonal fruits can be very expensive if not in season.  For instance we love blueberries so at the peak of blueberry season this year we picked 18 pounds of blueberries.  Now mind you we gave some away to our elderly neighbors but for the other 16 pounds we kept I laid them out on a cookie sheet and froze them, then sucked them down using my FoodSaver.  We now will have blueberries throughout until next season.  I… read full review »

I finally purchase a Foodsaver about three years ago after hearing how wonderful they were.  I'm one of those people that will buy pretty much any "gadget" out there, so I definitely had my doubts.  But I also had my receipt, so I could return it.  —  Well, three years later and I'm on my second Foodsaver.  Pretty much wore the first one out.  I literally can't image being without it for more than a week - I use it that often.  Not just for freezing meats, either.  They sell canisters for cookies, crackers, etc. and I have a large collection of… read full review »

We had this product years ago and sadly wore it out. It was several years before we decided to get another one, why I'm not sure, but after we broke down and bought this newest one we can't do without it. — If the bags were big enough I'd put my kids in them to help their allergies :) but on a serious note, we always buy in bulk and alot of it was being thrown away due to staleness, mold, deterioration, with the Foodsaver, we haven't had that problem, so the cost of it has been recouped just in our food bill! — Would love it if it came with more canisters, they are great for… read full review »

I love this. I mean I absolutely love this. I just got married so it's only two of us. But no one sells beef and other products in small enough servings and when they do, the prices are outrageous. This helps me buy bulk paks and freeze smaller servings so that I can take them out and use them without freezer burn. Yes, you got it, NO MORE FREEZER BURN. YAY! The only bad part is that since it's just the two of us and I haven't gotten the containers yet, I don't buy enough to use it every week....someday… read full review »

This item is very functional. Great for when buying in bulk. It is a little extra work but at the same time you can make bags in portions you will need in the future. Then you can just pull it out of the freezer and defrost it in the fridge in time for when you will use it. Yeah it is more work for you but it is pretty quick and saves time… read full review »

I had the food-saver now for about year, and it's worth the money to by this product.  The food-saver is easy to use and keeps all food fresh.  Yes, it's a bit pricing, but no more throwing out food because of freezer burns or that food is stale.  Highly recommend this product. … read full review »

Love this product. By shrink wrapping extra food I am can keep it longer without spoiling. Easy to use. The refill bags are costly but I have found that I can recycle the bags that I have already used which is a great savings. — … read full review »

I buy a lot of food items in bulk. This product really is easy to use and saves you from having to worry about freezer burn on foods. Everything lasts so much longer when it is vacuum sealed before… read full review »
