Looking for a good vacuum sealer

[triple_duece]

Time to pull the trigger, looking to buy a good vacuum sealer to put stuff up in the freezer. Couple years ago I was looking at a vac master 215. They no longer make them or the name changed. Without researching for hours, I’m asking everyone if they have any knowledge in this area to lead me in the right direction.
I’m not looking for a Walmart model or ones along that line. I’m a buy once, cry once kind of person. Thanks in advance

I have had good luck with food savers higher end models. Just bought my second last year. First one lasted nearly 10 years of abuse.

I bought the Cabela's deluxe 15" stainless steel sealer back in 2005. I have sealed thousands of bags with it. still pulls as good of a seal today as the day I took it out of the box, and the seal strip is 1/4" wide. best $400 I ever spent. I think these are all made my Weston, and you can buy replacement parts for them. motors, seal strips, etc. but the only thing I've ever replaced was the metal seal strip and the teflon tape that covers it. the only better way to seal bags is with a chamber vacuum sealer, and some of those have become affordable and might be worth looking into as well.

Look up on kohl’s.com. They are on sale and plus if use kohl’s card can get 30% off. They have food savers. Is what I got.

I have had excellent luck with the food savers as well but I sure like the way Jamie is thinking..... May just be my next purchase

I posted a similar question a while ago and I believe bowhunter1023 suggested the FoodSaver 4800 series. I got the 4840 and it’s done everything I’ve asked it.

This thread is from 2021. The venison steaks I cooked today were frozen in foodsaver vacuum sealed bags and smelled as good and looked as good as the day I froze them

I just realized I'm eating what bears eat- venison and blueberries
