Erb5.0 out of 5 stars Works very well and I can use Foodsaver bags with no issuesReviewed in the United States on June 24, 2024Style: SealerVerified PurchaseThis is a review of the Anova Culinary Precision Vacuum Sealer Pro, Includes 1 Bag Roll, For Sous Vide and Food Storage, black, mediumMy old Foodsaver Vacuum Sealer machine finally bit the dust. I was kind of shocked how expensive they've become so I started looking for an alternative. I discovered the Anova brand and bought this model. I've been very pleased with the performance and ease of operation.Some people have complained that they cannot use Foodsaver brand rolls in this, well I use that brand since I had a numerous rolls left when my old machine died. Happily the roll works perfectly in this new Anova machine.What stands out to me is that this double seals the bags which gives me much more confidence that the contents are air-tight.What bothers me a little bit is that it does take longer for this to seal the bag than my previous machine. But that is just a minor complaint.The build quality seems fine to me and the suction power is great. No issues so far and I've had this for about 6 months and use it several times a week.Robbo5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE this machine! Best of MANY I tried (and returned)Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2024Style: SealerVerified PurchaseI tried 4 other sealers before buying this one. All had flaws or just plain wouldn’t seal 100%, which is not acceptable for sous vide OR storing food. This one cost a little more but is WORTH THE DIFFERENCE IN COST. Take my personal trial and error and use it to your advantage. This sealer ROCKS!Rick5.0 out of 5 stars Great quality1Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2024Style: SealerVerified PurchaseEasy to use and works well!Gabriel's Dad4.0 out of 5 stars Better than ziploc bags, but the enclosed directions are worthlessReviewed in the United States on July 8, 2021Style: SealerVerified PurchaseI was OK using ziploc bags for sous vide until one of the bags failed and I ruined a expensive piece of prime beef. So I figured I use the sous vide often enough to warrant buying a vacuum sealer. I waffled between this and the lower cost model, and ultimately chose this due to the onboard bag storage and sealing/cutting function as well as some of the other additional options vs the base model.The vacuum machine is sleek and looks nice. It's a little bigger than expected, but relatively easy to hide in the pantry when not in use and won't take up too much real estate in there. The on-board cord storage is nice and being able to keep the roll of customizable bags within the unit means one less thing I have to look for when I need to use this.The main downside is that this machine isn't really all that intuitive for the first time user. I've never used a vacuum sealer before and given how easy and intuitive the Anova sous vide was, I erroneously assumed that this would be the same. Well, how wrong I was. The included directions are terrible, and look like they were written by a dropout from the Ikea instruction manual writing school: No words, overly simplified pictures, and no explanation. It's really disappointing to turn to the enclosed instruction manual for help only to get even more confused and frustrated. Sadly no readily available videos on YouTube either. So with some trial and error and wasting a good amount of vacuum bags, I sort of figured out how to use this machine and vacuum seal food.The good news is that the vacuum sealer works well, the bag stays sealed shut, and my steaks all turned out well. It's also much easier to use this than ziploc bags and I have complete confidence that the vacuum sealed bags won't leak. I've used this a dozen times now and haven't had a bag failure yet. Being able to customize the size of the bag for my needs is great. Once I figured out how to use the thing, it's been great. Just the initial first impression was poor.Anyway, it's a little pricy, but the quality of the bags are nice, the seal works, and the convenience and reliability of the machine has been great. I just wish there were clearer instructions to make the initial attempt more user friendly.The ability to custom control the amount of vacuum has been more helpful that I thought. In addition to getting food ready for the sous vide bath, I've also been using this for long term storage of coffee beans I buy in bulk, meats for the freezer, marinating food, and just about everything else you can think of that would benefit from airless storage. After I completed the included roll, I've also stayed with using the Anova brand rolls of bags just to keep everything "in the family". FYI, the bags are pretty good but have their quirks.Happy cooking!Itchy Dog1.0 out of 5 stars NEVER ... NEVER Again !Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2024Style: SealerVerified PurchaseI purchased this sealer in December 2023. Until June 2024, I used it perhaps a dozen times. For about 2 months beginning June, I began using it regularly, perhaps 12 - 15 cycles per week. I was able to work thru various issues (such as the need to run multiple sealing cycles, adjusting bag lengths and other creative techniques for moist food, etc...) to make it reasonably functional. Then on August 16, the ability, both automatic and manual, to seal while vacuuming failed. I called Anova customer service and left a message. To their credit, I received a call back the same day. Anova sent me a return label and told me they were sending a replacement. After a MONTH and after numerous emails with assurances that the replacement has been shipped, I am still without a vacuum sealer. They have my original unit and I have nothing other than a 2+ week old tracking number for the replacement which never shipped (their last email was to inform me that the unit was on back order and they would let me know when the situation changed). Their customer service lied and attempted to deceive... this, along with what I have now found to be a company with a history of producing unreliable products with little to no support, is not a recipe for building a satisfied customer base. I will NEVER purchase another Anova product and will go out of my way to advise others to do likewise.M. Parker5.0 out of 5 stars Huge upgrade from my less expensive one...Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2024Style: SealerVerified PurchaseI had the Geryon sealer. It had issues but was useable. Its biggest issue was that it didn't manage seal bar temperature - if you did 8 or 9 seals in a row, the last ones would just melt the bag in half. Finally, one of the plastic latch tabs broke off and I needed a new sealer.This Avona sealer has a bag compartment for a bag roll and has a cutter - very handy. And, it does a double seal all at once - where I used to seal twice. But the absolute best feature is the latch mechanism - it's designed to be operated one handed. When I'm repackaging meat for the freezer, I keep one hand clean an dry and one all covered in meat juice. The cheaper sealers that have two buttons, one on each side are pretty hard to operate one handed. This one has the latch bar and is easy to open or close one handed.
