First vacuum sealer I’ve ever used and found it’s very helpful for freezing meat. Only tricky part is making sure no liquid gets sucked into the machine. It’s convenient that there is a spot to store your roll of plastic in the machine and you can very easily cut the bag to the size you need. There is a double seal option to ensure a good seal and no air can get in. I like that you can choose between manual or auto vacuum and that you can switch between them easily. You need to give it a minute between sealing packages and it can feel like it’s slowing you down a bit, but you find a rhythm and it’s fine. It’s easy to pull out to seal up one bag and sturdy enough to do multiple bags in a row. So far I’ve done as many as 15, resting about a minute between each. I’d recommend it.
