Nesco Deluxe Food VS-12 Vacuum Sealer, 130 Watts, Kit Bags & Viewing Lid, Compact, Silver

Tried it for the first time yesterday and it was perfect. Did exactly what we wanted

Waste of money doesn't conform to uk standards due to American plug and wattage. Costs you between £50 and £60 pounds to send back due to amazon telling you to send it direct to supplier. DO NOT BUY.

You will require a voltage transformer for this item in the UK costing closer to £40 of which Amazon don’t tell you on there website and also it comes from America which they also don’t tell you .It also has arrived with an American type plug. Waste of time and money.I don’t even know if it works because I can’t plug it in and you have to get in touch with the American company not Amazon uk

As stated NOT suitable for UK use.

This is not to be used in the UK. The voltage is for the US. It’ll burn💥🔥💥

Total waste of money, I have used it three times and was very impressed. Then on the fourth time it started to pour smoked out of various areas, then stopped working. I unplugged it quick and got it out of the house, thankfully I was sitting near the back door. Too late to return it

It sucks, really sucking all the air out of the bag nicely. Set up is easy, is just plug and play, nothing to adjust. Is also very compact in size, not bulky at all, great for not taking up too much space on countertop. Operation is easy, 1 button is suck AND seal, 1 button is seal ONLY, 1 button is cancel whatever you doing. Indicating lights so that you know when is done. Can't complain on the ease of use and effectiveness. The whole operation is pretty fast, I didn't really time it but I think it took less than 10sec to vac and seal. Few things to pay attention to. If your bag opening is not line up in the vacume chamber, it will not vacume correctly, all vacume food saver are same on this issue. If you have water/juice/sauce in the bag, some of it might get sucked out during the operation and they will be collected in the vacume chamber, just wipe it with paper towel and is all good. When done, DO NOT lock the lid it might deform or shorten the life of the seal for the vacume chamber (refer to owners manual). Wait 2 minutes before each use? I didn't, I just cut a salmon into 3 pieces then seal it back to back, only down time was putting the salmon in the bag, it works fine, no overheat. It comes with 10 bags, 5 of the 8x12 5 of the 11x12 pre-cut bags. The 8/12 is big enough for at least 80-90% of the work, and the 11 x 12 will be for something like a big rack of meat with bones. I think for now I am going to buy the precut bag for the 8x12 work because is not much a saving in buying a big roll and cut and seal yourself. In rolls, if you cut and seal perfectly(zero waste,almost impossible), you can yield 100 bags at around $0.16. Precut is around $0.26, a whopping $0.1 saving per bag. Just imagine the pain of cut and seal, the $0.1 is not worth saving. For the larger size, 11"x12, I will go for the rolls, is $0.2 per bag if you cut and seal vs $0.38 for a pre-cut/pre-seal.

Nice product. Works as per specification mentioned. Little costly, but then you don't have much options.

me sorprendio la calidad del sellado al vacío, escelente producto 100% recomendado

Il serait utile de préciser en description qu'il s'agit de matériel aux normes américaines et qu'il faut également un convertisseur 220v-110v pour pouvoir utiliser l'appareil...

A lot of mixed reviews; however, for our family, this unit worked perfectly for sous vide sealing / cooking purposes. Only once did it not seal completely. We just ran it through again on the manual selection and it did the job. I haven't had this long enough to know if it will hold up after a year's time. My son was impressed with the machine and thought it was a very high end machine offering ease of use compared to a different brand he purchased a few years back that didn't have as many options as this unit offers.
