SousVideTools [SVT-03018] VS520P Vacuum Sealer | Food Preservation System for Dry and Moist Foods | Includes Built-In Cutter and Roll Storage | 30 cm Sealing Bar

So been using this for a while now and though initially i had found a great machine. I love the double seal as was fed up with previous machines not completely sealing, now I've 100% more chance that wont occur. In built storage and a cutter is also a plus.What i don't like and im beginning to think that maybe i expecting too much and prosumer models will always have the trouble of overheating of the sealer, just having done meat bonanza purchase at Costco got everything ready to split and seal. marker pen at the ready. What i hadn't expected was having to wait for cool down after only the 10th seal this time, do these go bad over time? not that ive used it often. After the initial run today it was seal, seal, wait...... seal, seal, wait... not what i was expecting at this price tbh. previous sealers were a 3rd of the price so they can be forgiven but not really for a £100+ unit. shame.Occasionally the suction wouldn't work either, as though there was a bad seal or hole (so much for the double seal) switching bags and all was good, but the bags appeared water tight when testes so I'm not sure what the problem was..

I think this is a well made easy to use product. The suction is excellent, it is so simple to use there is an auto countdown for completion of vacuum and seal. Love the fact there is a compartment to hold the roll in addition to this a cutter incorporated. The other thing I like is the tube for containers is also in the lid which keeps everything in one place. There are multiple options for dry and wet foods and amazingly for marinade too. Overall I would say an excellent addition to any kitchen that want to preserve food longer.The only criticism I have is that the appliance includes a suction tube attachment for vacuum sealing such things as containers and bottles. I cannot find any of these attachments available for this appliance.

I was sceptical as always with this item as I’d read mixed reviews. It’s being used in a commercial kitchen not for 6 weeks and it’s perfect.People have mentioned suction power but the chef hasn’t had a single issue. It’s perfect. I buy vac bags off Amazon also but not from these. Would highly recommend

The SousVideTools VS520P Vacuum Sealer works well and is certainly better than my last vacuum sealer which didn't expire, I just fancied an update.Happy with purchase but wouldn't buy again. I see there are better machines available which will get my vote next time.
