I cannot see a single improvement.

I have had great success in the past as I freeze a lot of what we produce.This,so-called space saver takes up more room because now I have to find other places to put the roll of plastic and it is much slower hand cutting with scissors. The older models were much more efficient.The vacuum motor is weak and only some of the bags seal and even then ,many still have some air in them.

Disappointed that this food saver does not store the rolls to make the bags. I have to cut them myself. I have been using food saver machines for over 20 years and this is a first.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The force needed to close the unit took some getting used to but it is just fine. There is much less waste of plastic above the seal than that on my fifteen-year old unit. I love that. I do miss the retractable accessory hose. However, I really don't use it much and I suppose I will get used to clicking the detachable hose in as well. Most of all, I love the low profile. i think it is the smallest and lightest model. I can easily slip it into the drawer. I don't miss extra functions such as Gentle and Moist.

I had a whamodyne fancy sucky bag machine that had bells whistles and flashing lights. You know if it has all that stuff it has to be better. It lasted about 3 years and quit sealing properly. So I bought this simple sucky bag machine. Not disappointed at all. About half the cost of a fancy one but does the job and fits in a drawer with all the bags and accessories. You won’t be disappointed.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Purchased as a Christmas gift for a busy household and the size was appreciated as it will fit into a kitchen drawer and be readily available.

This vacuum sealer is junk. It struggles to turn on. When it does turn on it doesn’t vacuum all the air out. Then seals the bag with lots of air inside. I then have to wait 10-15 minutes for it to vacuum again. This is only my second time using now it’s headed for the trash.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Brooks,
Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback on our VS1260 Space Saving Vacuum Sealing System. We are sorry to hear that the unit did not meet your expectations and was not fully removing the air from the bags. We recommend ensuring that the open end of the bag is resting entirely inside the Vacuum Channel, as placing the edge beyond the channel can affect the vacuuming process.
That said, we value your feedback and it will be forwarded to the appropriate department for further review.
If you require assistance, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us directly. You can do so via the 'Contact Us' form on our official website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time.
Thank you!
