I'm the type to throw out the instructions and just go for it. I have had the machine for several years now and it has not had even one hiccup. I've sealed about 80lbs worth of dry dog food, about 10lbs of coffee, batteries, medicines, etc. I've even used it to mold leather around a form to craft a key fob holder for my Indian motorcycle. Experimented with marinading meats, and trying to make expanded candy pieces. That last one was not successful due to my own misunderstanding of the process. I'm still learning as I go. I want to experiment sous vide cooking when I find out if the sealing bags are compatible. I might pick up the owner's manual one day and see if I'm missing something. That is if I can find the owner's manual.... I should have vacuum sealed it and placed it somewhere safe!
Got a replacement for same modrl that died on me Would not work out of box.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is my third machine they all quit vacuuming in less than a year. I'm going to try new seals this time or buy a different brand that works.

Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback on our VS3130 Premier Multi-Use Vacuum Sealing & Food Preservation System. We are very sorry to hear that you have had repeated issues with the machines losing suction, this is certainly not the performance we expect from our products. We understand how frustrating it must be, especially after having multiple units fail within a short period. If you haven’t already, we also recommend ensuring the sealing area/ gaskets is clean and free of debris, as this can impact the machine’s ability to maintain suction. That said, we completely understand your disappointment and appreciate you giving our product multiple chances. We value your feedback and regret that your experience hasn’t met expectations.

I had more old much more expensive FoodSaver sealer for years and it finally died. I have to say that I actually like this model much better. And it works faster! Thank you.
Lets start with it sitting at an angle. Sitting at angle creates waste of plastic material requiring more plastic used to seal bags. Cutter location doesn't work well and cutter itself is poor at best. The FM2100 is a far cry better then this particular model. If it was availible at the time of purchase, i would had bought that on again
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback on our VS3130 Premier Multi-Use Vacuum Sealing & Food Preservation System. We are sorry to hear that the unit is not sitting level and that this is causing extra waste when sealing bags, that is definitely not the experience we want for our customers. We also appreciate you pointing out the issues with the cutter placement and performance. Your comparison to the FM2100 is helpful, and we understand how frustrating it is when one model does not meet the expectations set by one you have used successfully before.
We value your feedback and it will be forwarded to the appropriate department for further review.

Don’t like where the cutter is located, and the remote piece for sealing is annoying, as it never stays where it’s supposed too. With that said, I still have used 3 rolls of bags.
