Buy it, try it, you'll love it. Experience date is approximate. Afraid to exit review to confirm purchase date, don't want to lose what I wrote.
My husband and I have been using this product now at least over a month or two. It really is very easy to use and it comes with little white tab type things that you use to seal the bag before you use the vacuum sealer. If you're having trouble vacuum sealing the bag it is because you didn't use the white sealer correctly so there's a little air coming out of the top. Just use the white sealer again, and you should be all set. I love that I don't even need to hold it to use it. If what you are sealing up is on a flat surface which it should be, you turn it on, it'll vacuum seal the bag and shut off automatically. The size of the vacuum sealer itself takes up almost no space at all and will last 500 to 1,000 uses before you need to charge it with your USB charger included. Haven't had to charge it yet. We came up with quite the setup for storing the bags and drying the bags once we wash them. If we can attach pictures I will attach them to show you what we have purchased and what we are using to make this whole system works smoothly. Only thing I would caution, is not to buy a supply of the large bags until you see the sizes of the small and the medium when you get them. I think I jumped the gun by ordering the large with my initial order because I really only needed three or four of them so far, we really only need it for food storage. It comes with I believe 30. We did order additional small size bags because we were going through them and needing more. They are washable and reusable. They are thick and made well so I expect we will get lots of use of them before needing to replace some of them. Only time will tell. We are very pleased with this purchase and have already recommended it to friends and family.
