I received this as a Christmas present Dec 2020. I absolutely loved it!!! I've owned different Food Saver models and they stopped sealing after a year and for sous vide I would have to double seal. My friend got me this to try out - I loved it so much that I purchased boxes of the bags and a bunch of their containers. Well towards the end of August it completely stopped working. Not buying another one - I moved on to a chamber sealer, It doesn't seal containers, but I need something way more reliable.
