WHAT'S THE 411 ON THIS PRODUCT?
This unit is a pure piece of junk!!!!!!!!! Do NOT buy it!! You're better off getting one of the newer Food Saver units!! This product is a complete waste of money now!!!!!!!!!
But there is a definite design flaw in the design of this unit!! Once the batteries were replaced, I found myself having to replace them every blasted two weeks
But as it turns out, I soon found out that the most constant annoying aggravating and frustrating problem with these machines is that time, after time, after time again, after their vacuum bags are sealed and placed in the freezer,...

I love the product but we can't buy the bags up here in Michigan anymore. I bought 11 of them and passed them out for Christmas presents. I am out of bags and so are my friends and relation. I went over to WalMart and they told me they don't carry the product anymore. I called Target and they said they don't have them either. What is going on. This is a great product. My friend showed me hers and I fell in love with it. So easy to use. Great for the freezer. Please get them back on the market. We need our bags. My dad can't find the bags in Ohio either.

For long storage of items and freezer goods, I trust my Food Saver System; but for those items I regularly get in and out of, like deli goods, I don't like having to create a whole new Food Saver Bag when they cost as much as they do. Well, Reynold's resolved this issue with the Reynold's Handy Vac System!
The Reynold's Handy Vac System is a lightweight, hand-held device that sucks the air out of their specially designed RESEALABLE, sacks. The outer clear plastic nosil is removable for cleaning purposes and battery operated (6-AAs). The bags come in sandwich and quart sack and can...

On to how it works. The seals on bags don't last so it's not for long term storage. Finally, after the short time I've owned it, it's died. NOt even 2 months. Then I find the warranty is only for 30 days. Excuse me but I'd rather spend... review »

I received the starter kit, along with 2 packages of bags, for a gift.
The starter kit includes the vacuum sealer, (with batteries included!), and 3 quart size Handi-Vac freezer bags.
To use this handy little gadget, you place the food you want to freeze into the Handi-Vac bag, making sure you keep the food below the fill line on the bag, then close the zipper. You then lay the bag flat on the counter, then press the sealer flat against the air valve on the bag, push the button, and in seconds, the air is removed from the bag. It's actually pretty cool! You can now... review »

I bought this sealer as a small holiday gift for both my husband and also my cousin. My husband started to see the advertisments for the product and before he went and got one I had to present it to him ahead of time!
It was an immediate joy the first time we used it. It is so easy and so handy..it fits right in the counter drawer too! We have a conventional sealer. but that is quickly becoming old news in out innovative kitchen! I never would have thought that such a practical gift could also be such a reasonable purchase. It works just as well as the more conventional ...

The Handi-Vac is perfect for my small kitchen and powerful enough to seal bags well for freezing. It runs on AA batteries, but the batteries last a long time, I've had this for about 5 months and have not had to replace the batteries yet. I love that it fits right in the drawer with my silverware and measuring spoons and that there's no need to drag out a large sealer, cut the bags to size, etc.
I've found this works best when freezing items for less than 6 weeks though, the bags do seems to lose their seal after that amount of time.

This is a product that i saw in a comerical and I thought it was too good to be true. But after I used it the first time and it worked I knew I would like it. It actually does work. The food in the bad after all the air is out makes it easier to put into the freezer to stack. How many times i put bags in the freezer and when I opened the door it fell out. Not with this product. I think that once you use you will like it. This is a product for someone who cannot afford the other high price items that do the same thing.
