Here is "my" review I hope you find it useful. 
I've had my machine for about 2 years now. I have used it to save everything from spaghetti sauce and soup stocks to various Meats. It performs flawlessly! When I finally wear this thing out I will immediately buy another. It is without a doubt the best kitchen tool I have invested in since my KitchenAid stand mixer. I absolutely love this machine. I had bagged Chile that I had made last year. I had forgotten completely about it. found it burried in my freezer, as an experiment I heated it up and tried it. The flavors were as good as the day I had made it. And I make some darned good chile. It has become a must-have tool for me. 
Buy it you won't be disappointed.
