Thread: Vacuum Sealer

I use a cheapo one that takes the textured bags. Went between Warehouse and Mitre 10 as you can trade them off with the "beat it by 10% " deal.
For bags I go to Contour packaging here in Tauranga, 100 A4 sized bags is around $65 I also buy the plain vacuum bags for things I can squeeze the air out of ( such as stews in liquid )and just use the seal feature they run about $17 / 100.

Mine would be about 6 years old now and probably done close to a thousand bags all up. Its a no name "as seen on TV" model.

It longer does an Auto seal when the are gets sucked out but I hit the manual switch to start the seal cycle when I guess its right.

I reckon the budget ones are good value for money. I have seen a model that has a metal tongue that goes into the bag to remove the air, when its done you press a button and the tongue retracts so you can seal it........ they look pretty shitty and I wouldnt get that one.
