I have had 5 FoodSavers and I have always loved them, so when I saw that they came out with the hand held FreshSaver, I wanted one. I love it! I use it to seal all of the items (lunch meats, cheese, etc.) that I used to just put in regular zip lock bags. It plugs in and is continually recharging, so it is always ready. I love this little handheld machine so much, that I bought two of them for my daughter-inlaws as Christmas gifts this year. I love that it will work with anyone's vacuum bags, however, I have been looking for a supply of these vacuum bags, because they have the wide bottom and work a little bit better than the others.

Don't put these bags in the freezer. There are little plastic tabs glued over the suction hole on the bags; putting them in the freezer causes the adhesive to fail, so the tabs fall off very easily. Without the tabs, the bags will not hold their seal and air can (and will) get in.
In the fridge, these work like a charm. If you want to freeze your food, though, you'll need to spring for one of the heat-sealing units and the bags that go with them. The zipper bags won't cut it.

No theses bags are not as good as the regular bags, but they are very handy for those resealable items like cheese, hot dogs and cold cuts etc. I like the unit enough so that I bought an extra for myself and several as gifts when they were on sale.

The square tab falls off and the seal is lost if the bag is placed in the freezer. They should place a notice " do not freeze" on the box. Otherwise a great product.

First thing to know [which is true of ALL vacuum sealing]: don't skimp on the size. The quart bag is NOT big enough for lunch meets and cheese. Get the gallon size. You DO need to be careful putting them in the refrigerator, the flap can easily get knocked out. Incredibly convenient when using the proper size!

The bags have about a 20% failure rate as the tab over the sealing site comes off during storage. Filling the bags to capacity is not possible because the sealing site needs to remain flat to allow the sealer to work. The regular heat seal system is by far superior to the zipper system.

I've been a FoodSaver user for years and love it, however since I started using the FreshSaver I couldn't be happier!! It's always at hand charged up & ready to go!!!! Also, DOESN'T take up valuable counter space, Although have had trouble finding replacement bags at local retailers. Overall my favorite & most used kitchen gadget. My wife even uses it & she's a bit kitchen challenged! LOL !!!

They work great and I can resue them over and over again. I choose an item, say like raisins. Then when I replenish the bag, I just put what I bought into the bag and seal again. I have opened and re-sealed these bags many times and they seal just a great as the first time! I would definitely reccommend these to anyone who has the hand sealer. I love mine!!

I have been using FoodSaver for 6 months and I am loving it. This product is great for saving food in frige to keep it fresh. The bags are sealed very well. They are reusable and good quality to last.

I like that these are reusable, take up very little space, and easily show the food stored, so I don't have to stand with the fridge door open trying to figure out what I've got. Since I don't buy packaged food very often, it's really helpful to have a way to package the food I get directly from the farm or for aging cheeses I've made at home. I like the easy access to the products and the extended shelf life too.

Love these bags. Purchased these mostly to use with sandwich meats and cheeses. Easy to use, even my 6 and 8 year old boys can reseal these. They even think its fun:).

I use a ton of zip lock bags but could never get enough air out to satisfy me. These vacuum zip locks are great for saving cheese slices, lemon slices-even did sliced tomatoes. Just be careful to moniter process and get it turned off before it crushes items. Washes up well and I dry them over a tall glass.

Been using to store cheese and lunch meat. Very easy to use but reseal not good after 2 or 3 times. Gone to making large storage bags off of roll bags and just cutting down bag to re-store products.

I really did want to like these bags, especially the gallon size with the gusset. However, they only seem to stay sealed if, after sealing them, you put them in stasis where nothing else touches them, otherwise, they lose their seal after a few days of being moved around in the fridge or freezer. I'm trying to figure out what to do with the one's I've got. They've become a vacuum bag of last resort.
