Not really reusable bags.

Very specific about the bags; if you use raw meat or poultry it says in the booklet that they are not reusable. That's the only reason I got these bags and now I fi d out they are not reusable. Very dissapointed.

The bags can be reused an unlimited number of times when used for storing fruit, bread, vegetables or other dry produce. For reasons of hygiene, the bags should be recycled after use with raw produce such as meat, fish or unpasteurized cheese.

Best thing ever!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best gadget I have ever purchased. It's so much easier to use than any other vacuum system and takes up hardly any kitchen real estate. No guys related, but the large bags are great for traveling and the vacuum is small enough to pack with you.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Zipper connection to the bag is weak
on May 3, 2021
Posted by: SoCal2021
Frequency of use:Daily
The design of the bag zipper is poor and fails quickly. I bought the Fresh & Save for storing food (fridge and freezer) but also for sous vide. In both cases I wanted to stop throwing away the plasitc bags. I am disappointed that I will not get as much use out of each bag as I hoped, so I will still be discarding plastic and wasting money. As mentioned in other reviews, the zipper part is impulse fused to the outside of the bag and this is a very weak connection. I find the plastic along the zipper tears. The bags that came with my unit that had gray/black zippers as shown in the product photo appear to be stronger than the new bag with clear zippers. When using bags for sous vide, I found that liquid in the sous vide bag would accumulate under the zipper, entering through what were probably small holes in the seam. I have included a photo of a bag zipper after I sous vide cooked some skin on chicken in the bag. Liquid and chicken fat accumulated under the zipper. I also had the seal fail completely (photo included), which contaminated/ruined what I was cooking and the sous vide bath. I am rather disappointed with the quality of engineering of these bags and this system by Zwilling. The vaccuum stick since, although getting liquid in won't destroy it, you cannot clean the inside. If you are only sealing vegtables perhaps you never get liquid, but I think it is short sighted to think liquid will not get in. It even gets by the liquid barrier attachments. The design in convenient to use, I will probably continue to use bags for storage of some items, but will no longer use this with sous vide and I will limit what I use it for. The containers appear to work well.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hard to get rid of smells of anything you store
on April 25, 2021

I love vacumm storage. I used for my clothes ans my food. I regularly sous vide.
I got these bags and equipments aiming for a more sustainable solution with reusable bags. However very disappointed at the hygiene part. I used three bags, one w left over paella; one with the steaks to marinade; and one with fish to marinade. The marinade were powerful and delicious. Totally worth it.
BUT.... I have cleaned the bags with soap four times and they reek the aromas of the food. I wouldn’t dare to the reuse them on one hand because everything will smells like paella, steaks and fish... on the other hand, because it can’t be sanitary for them to smell liek this still.
None of the food was there dor more than 48 hours.
I really wish I could use them regularly. I totally believe in the concept but the smell is impossible to accept.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This product is excellent for storing food, frozen or fresh. No longer any freezer burn or refrigerator smells. Packs easily. Opening packages can be a problem but that is easily accomplished. The end result is fresh and excellent tasting stored foods.
I would recommend this to a friend!
