I’m not really impressed with this food sealer, if you don’t get the bag laid just right it doesn’t suck the air out and because it’s long and skinny it’s easy for it to go crooked when trying to close it. Closing it is hard, you have to really give it a good push to get it to shut. The only things it has going for it is that it’s a lot more quiet than others, it’s compact and they give you 4 rolls of bags with it
