FoodSaver FM2000-000 Vacuum Sealing System with Starter Bag/Roll Set, Black

I bought it as to use it in UAE;But there are inconsistencies in the information given regarding voltage and frequency ,the one what I have it 110V 60Hz not working in UAE.

Depuis que j'ai cet appareil, je l'utilise plusieurs fois par semaine pour sceller des aliments pour bien les conserver au congélateur. Il est très facile à utiliser, très pratique et se range bien dans le garde-manger. J'ai testé certains sacs du commerce (sac de cassonade) et autres de ce type, la machine les prend très bien et ainsi j'évite des dégâts avec des sacs à moitié dans l'armoire. Petit truc à savoir, j'utilise des sacs ziploc pour les viandes avant de les mettre dans le sac à sceller, ainsi je peux les réutiliser plusieurs fois sans risque de les voir contaminer. Il suffit de ne pas fermer complètement le ziploc pour aspirer l'air avant de sceller le sac foodsaver. Très bon achat, je le recommande!

まだ数回しか使っていませんが、しっかり真空になり、密閉も問題ありません。コードを下に巻き取って収納できるので、便利。

This was a replacement for my 15yo sealer that finally gave up on me, wouldn't pull a vacuum if the world depended on it :( Enough about the old unit, decided to get a reasonably close replacement for old-reliable, chose the FM2000 for simplicity in look and function -- don't need all the super-sized bells and whistles, just a good, basic unit to do the job. So far, this unit has lived up to my expectations, aside from my own learning curve: tip, look at what appear to be safety labels inside the jaw area, those are your quick-start guides. Once I figured out how to properly place the bag, everything sucked and sealed as it should. Would I buy it again, or give it as a gift? Yes, I would in a heartbeat. What is my biggest problem in using the machine? I can't cut a straight line, never could in kindergarten and have to use a straight edge as an adult, LOL, so using the roll of make-your-own-size bag material is a challenge for me, but not an insurmountable one....had the same "problem" with my old machine, so it must be an operator issue :-) Honestly, buying in bulk is usually overrated. Who needs a 24-unit case of great-priced steaks rotting in their fridge, right? That's what I love about having a machine like this, Costco, BJ's and Sam's are fair game for stocking up on great bulk deals, repacking those items into human-sized meal portions with this machine, and freeze them. Easy, peasy, nice and easy. Sure, you can seal other things -- copies of critical documents that go in an evac bag for those living in flood/earthquake/hurricane/wildfire/etc. areas is one good example -- but my use has only been with food stuffs. Pro tip: others have complained about bad seals when doing items containing some fluid, like fresh steaks. Yes, this can be a problem, but I've found a simple wipe of the bag opening with a dry paper towel to remove said moisture droplets before vacuum-seal process solved that problem for me. Have not tried sealing soups or sauces, so can't recommend the tip works in all cases, obviously. Also, make sure the bag is laying flat between the jaws. Any fold or crease in the bag along the clamp area may impede the vacuum process. If the bag seals without getting the full vacuum, I simply reseal the suspect edge and cut off the a small corner section, creating a positive opening to insert into the machine, press go and it pulls a new vacuum and seals the bag good as new. This was another problem I've had with several machines over the years, regardless of machine or bag brands, so I've learned to address it using this simple, quick 'redo' process as needed.

Llevo 1 semana con la maquina Foodsaver y me encanta, me ha funcionado perfectamente y me ayuda a mantener mis alimentos más tiempo!

Super recomendable, desp de 5 meses siguia comprimido y en el cogeldor el último paquete de 10 tortillas que le mandé a mi hijo europa .(Cabe señalar que lleva 5 meses por que se le fue hasta la parte de atras de congelador y cuando las encontró fue como oro para el Y yo comprobé lo perfecto que se mantuvo el empacado al vacio)
