Cumbersome, noisy and slow -- the older, smaller model I used for many years was far superior..if I didn't need it for general sealing I would return it..
By Sharon N. Carter (Chicago, IL)
I have had my sealer for approximately 2 -3 months and am thoroughly satisfied with ease of use and effectiveness of product. I would like to suggest this tip for other users .. if you're a tightwad like me and want to save money on bags, try this. Wrap your food in portions in "saran wrap", "cling tight", or similar product prior to sealing. Place in sealer bag and seal as usual. When you open the bag, the individual food packages will be sealed tight and will remain so for future use .. unwrap only what you need and place the rest in a regular a ziplock bag .. I kept food in this manner for over a month, without any freezer burns. For Chili, soup, or other liquid food, freeze first in Tupperware or similar product, then wrap and seal as above.

I picked up the Model V106 at Wallmart a few months ago. It appears quite similar to the VS107 on this product page, and if indeed it is a similar machine there are some caveats. The VS106 has a single activator button (and by the photo the VS107 seems the same). On my unit the vacuum pump runs whenever the machine is activated. Meaning, if you are simply trying to seal a bag (and not suck the air out, which is a routine process if you use the rolled bags), the pump will turn on needlessly. This will likely reduce its life. Next, I placed my unit into fairly heavy service right away, sealing a backlog of items and performing probably several hundred seals in a few weeks. After a while the actuator started to fail. I had to try several times to get the unit to turn on and seal. The more seals I do the harder it is to turn the unit on. I have to tap the lid really hard, or play simulated "conga drums" on it and finally the machine gets in the mood to work...until it ain't in the mood anymore. Also, I always have to cut short the amount of time the sealer operates after the vacuum has sucked all the air out. The sealer will actually melt the bag if I let it run the full time. Two or three seconds seems to work (using the factory seal-a-meal bags).
Having said that, the unit does apply a good vacuum, and indeed I have sealed a whole plethora of items. It's just that next time I will spend a bit more than the $49.95 Wallmart price. MOST IMPORTANTLY, KEEP YOUR RECEIPT no matter what you buy. Wallmart for example has a 90 day return policy, and if I hadn't lost my stupid receipt I could have swapped machines when mine starting acting up. Not sure about Amazon's policy.
Quick tip for newbies:
Always make TWO seals on each end of bag. Then if you get a bad seal you have a backup and the bag stays sealed without letting air in.

So far, it performs as advertised. It pulls the air out of anything I place before it.
I use it to freeze that extra chop, or deep-marinade a piece of meat.

First off I think all the 1 star reviews look suspicious and may be the same person. Come on, not a single 2 or 3 star review?
I have tried a bunch of these vacuum sealers and this is by far my favorite. Its easy to use and the hands free feature is great! Simply hold it down for 3-4 seconds and the machine takes over freeing you to start packing your next bag. This is the old school clam shell design and I think its still the best. With this style you can put multiple compartments in one bag :) No one ever talks about doing this but it can be really cool!
The heat strip actually works better than my $170 Food saver. This is the part that actually seals the bag when your done. A lot of these machines won't seal or get pinholes in the seal if there is any moisture in the seal.
The only downside is the slowish speed (not bad really) and the lack of a soft food setting, meaning if you put a bagel in a bag it will flatten it like a pancake! Some machines have soft food settings or overrides so you don't crush the food. Not a big deal really all in all a 5 star review!
