ZWILLINGFresh & Save Vacuum Sealer Machine Starter Set with Airtight Food Storage Container Glass, Sous Vide Bags, Meal Prep

This is an excellent product and works better than expected. It's well designed, very easy to use, good quality and does exactly what I had hoped it would do. Have used it with a variety of the different bag sizes for freezing a variety of food items-worked great on everything! No freezer burn, ice crystals or food that's taste changed from the freezing. One tip: follow instructions and do quick-freeze on soft items such as bread, cookies BEFORE sealing the bag! I thought I'd be quick enough to stop pulling the air, but did squish a few items - much easier when you pre-freeze them. Also used the glass containers for leftovers, dried goods, etc. They are extremely high quality glass and absolutely seal out the air, though they are heavy. I hand wash the bags, sometimes soak with baking soda and water if there's any food odor on them and dry thoroughly before storing away. The glass containers, I've put in the dishwasher top rack, but carefully hand-wash the covers due to the rubber gaskets. This sealer and accessories works far better than any other sealer I've used and the idea that you're able to re-use the bags is a huge plus! As the old saying goes, "This is the best thing since sliced bread!" Highly recommend this for all those folks that, like me, have tried everything, but find other products bulky, wasteful and not really always quick and easy to use....

love this little thing. so handy, don't have to drag out that cumbersome, space taking food saver anymore, might get rid of it. this mighty mouse thing was quick and efficient, great suction. glad i ordered the starter kit, the bags and other needed containers take weeks to arrive, definitely a downside. other than that, money well spent. very happy with my new favorite kitchen friend. ok, so i ordered some food containers and they came overnight, guess it depends on the seller?

Update 06/23... I've made several purchases of this sytem. Fully committed. However, now I'm having issue with the lids staying sealed. I clean after every use, make sure the lid is properly positioned, and ensuring the pump has a good charge. Seems the medium size glass containers are the only ones I'm having issue with. Disappointed.Total game changer for me! Absolutely love this system. Use the containers for berries and salad greens mostly. Bags for freezing protein. I have fresh berries for 2 weeks. Raspberries 1 week. Normally raspberries are toast within 3 days because they're so delicate. Photos are at 14 daysBeing single hindered what I shopped for because of the waste. Throwing out fruit and vegetables has stopped!A tad pricey but worth it for me personally. The convenience of the hand held vaccume sealer brilliant. Charged it once 3weeks ago and still going!Buy it, you won't be disappointed

I'd have given 5 stars but additional bags and glass containers are expensive.Easy to use and does a great job ..I love how small it is and reusable bags

If you grow your own personal or small batch veggies this is truly a must. I won’t go into why I bought this, the backstory is too crazy and irrelevant. But I do grow my own veggies, including a ton of lettuce. The Z bags are great for kales, spinach, peppers, etc. but I have many delicate lettuces where bags aren’t an option. By the time these precious crops are the size/age/color I want, the leaves are a bit leggy, soft, and I have a LOT. We can’t eat as much as I have to harvest when ready, and by the next day the beautiful and washed crop is wilted and sad. Oxidation is the beginning of the end. But….! My pics are what’s left after a family salad, harvested THREE DAYS ago. My adolescent red Bibb and baby romaine still have SUPER crisp ribs and buttery soft wings. They’re as amazing as the moment I picked them but chilled!! I did buy what in my mind is a medium container, but it was what I wanted to try for “the leftover harvest” and it is AMAZING. 8 seconds with the gadget and all the air is gone. It’s insanely easy to use. Charge stays high for many many uses, and it’s quick to charge (takes me about an hour). The size of the container is actually perfect for my fridge (which stays packed). I’m pretty impressed and consider this a game changer. Ps, I do have another very full size countertop food sealer too which has very specific and fantastic bulk uses, but for quick, everyday, small-medium uses - yeah….I have this too now and love it and started to use daily. Totally worth it!

This is my first product review in my life in such detail. It worked only less than 50 times in 4monthes. It is fully charged, but the pump is on only 1 sec. then it stops. After that, it does not turn on at all unless put on the charging stand and take it off. Then, of course, turn it on for 1 sec. only.I called Zwilling Customer Service for warranty support. I should return it, they should have it on their hand for the replacement shipping --- Yes I understand, I am not complaining. But, It will take 6 or more weeks to get the replacement.I decided to give up the replacement and I will buy another brand one because of the following reasons. I bought this vacuum pump because the design is the best in the market. Also, I trust the ZWILLING brand.. I was curious about what happened on the pump. I opened the pump to see inside. It seemed like The Electronic board failed. There some green stains on C1, U2, and R6.. - It is just my guess. I am not sure what was wrong frankly. The battery is 4.17V.. The Electronics can be failed..not a big deal. But, why the components are stained and the R6 top surface is pilled off?? However, the most serious issue to me is sucking the liquid into it and rotten inside. The liquid from the food may not avoid. I believe there are tons of germs on it. It cannot be cleaned. It's my personal opinion, but it will not be good for food handling. I think it is better to have a removable/washable reservoir at the suction inlet. I wish ZWILLING consider this and improve the design. This is the reason why I write this review.Thank you
