    Overview

    Introducing the FoodSaver Controlled Seal Vacuum Sealer, a commercial-quality appliance that ensures your food stays fresh for longer. With its patented system, this vacuum sealer creates a tight seal with FoodSaver bags, locking in freshness, flavor, and nutrients for both freezer and fridge storage. You can trust FoodSaver to keep your food fresh up to 5 times longer than traditional storage methods. The FoodSaver Controlled Seal also comes with a convenient retractable accessory hose, allowing you to vacuum seal FoodSaver containers and reusable zipper bags for easy storage in the fridge, pantry, or on-the-go. With 5 food settings, this vacuum sealer automatically adjusts the vacuum and seal settings to suit different types of food, including a sous vide setting, a manual pulse setting for delicate foods, a marinate setting, and dry/moist settings for an airtight seal regardless of the food's moisture content. Additionally, the easy Marinate program uses vacuum power to infuse flavors deep into meat in just 12 minutes. Say goodbye to food waste and hello to longer-lasting freshness with the FoodSaver Controlled Seal Vacuum Sealer.

    Broken cutter
    I have had this for a while now & it has been fantastic to use. I have recently broken the cutting blade holder whilst cutting through a bag which now means i have to manually cut the bags prior to use. I am now disappointed that I cannot buy a new blade holder to replace the broken one.

    Retractable component doesn’t retract
    The retractable hand held vacuum component stopped retracting first time I pulled it out. Now it’s a problem hanging in the side
