LOVE LOVE LOVE this handy device!  So much easier than dealing with the countertop food vacuum where you have to guess how much bag material you need, but also add extra if it is an item you need to get in and out of a lot and thus cut and re-seal over and over.

The vacuum is STRONG for its very small size!!!  Don't test it on your hand, it hurts!

Still working off of the same charge and we've vacuumed many times.

We've used it for:
- expensive coffee beans (for coffee snob hubby)
- the remains of a can of pumpkin puree
- cheddar cheese block sliced for convenient snacks.  No dried or hard edges at all!
- left-over crumble topping for mini fruit crumbles (to protect the fat from picking up odors in the fridge)

I am just realizing I haven't used it on avocado yet!!!
