Product description
Keep your food fresh 3-5 times longer, prevent freezer burn and save both time and money as you waste less food! Just how does it work? Well, a powerful piston pump removes the air from the patented storage bags and custom containers, then seals them tight. FoodSaver bags have 3 layers of material and special channels so that all the air is suctioned out and can’t get trapped in pockets. The bag’s outer layer of nylon keeps air from re-entering and spoiling your food. This machine is easy to use and you’re certain to find it is a great way to maximize your food’s freshness as well as helping your prepare meals ahead, pack for trips and so on.

Even first-time users will quickly get the hang of this nifty device. By vacuuming air out of food storage bags, the food inside stays fresher longer–years longer, in many cases. After food is placed in a bag, the edge is laid along the Teflon coated sealing strip and the lid closed. Two hands are required to press down on the top. A choice of two seal times, long and short, ensure that the FoodSavers nylon piston pump vacuums out as much air as desired: longer for wet foods, such as meats, and shorter for dry foods, such as pasta. The machine then creates a wide, tight seal.
FoodSavers patented dual-layer bags, made of UV-protective and FDA-approved materials, can be frozen (and prevent freezer burn on foods), microwaved, and boiled. The kit includes three quart-size and two gallon-size bags, along with an 11-inch-by-10-foot roll that can be cut with the built-in cutter to customized lengths and sealed with the Seal Only setting. An accessory port allows the included 30-inch hose to be attached in order to vacuum seal homemade foods in jars, cans, and bottles, or in the kits round, 3/4-quart canister. A how-to video takes away all the guesswork. White with gray trim, the FoodSaver Vac 800 measures 15 by 9-1/2 by 4 inches. –Ann Bieri
