Commercial Dual Mode Vacuum Sealer - for Textured & Smooth/Mylar Bags, 190W Food Sealer Vacuum Packing Machine with Auto Cooling System, Adjustable Air & Seal Settings -MS300

I have long time experience using nozzle type vacuum sealers. Its the only type I will use. True chamber sealers are too expensive and bulky. Typical counter top sealers require textured bags that get expensive. After many years, my previous nozzle type unit was becoming somewhat inconsistent. I decided time to replace it. So, after considerable research (my wife says I spend too much time researching) I replaced it with this unit. 100% satisfied. Why this unit? First, versatility - it can vacuum seal virtually any type bag - textured, flat chamber, and mylar. Second. it has automatic control and manual control. Third, excellent build quality. Fourth, price was reasonable given it's capabilities. The biggest reason to buy a nozzle vacuum sealer is the ability to utilize flat chamber vacuum bags. When purchased in quantity they can cost a third or more less than the commonly sold textured bags used by most counter top sealers. Having the ability to also use textured bags though makes this model maybe the most versatile sealer you can buy, If I run out of the cheaper flat bags I can go to Target and pick up a small supply of textured bags while I wait for my bulk order of the chamber bags to arrive. Win, win. I like the ability to set both the vacuum time and the seal time. Regarding the seal, the unit has an extra wide sealer element which results in an excellent seal, comparable to that on commercial sealers. No need to do double seals as some units recommend. The unit has a handy built in bag cutter that makes it easy to resize bags without hunting down a pair of scissors. It also has the capability to inflate bags, though I have never used it and am not sure if I will. What could they do to make it better? Two things. First, provide an actual on/off switch. Plugging and unplugging is the only way to power and shut off the unit. Second, a simple cord storage/management solution. The cord needs to be manually looped and tied with a wire tie or something similar for efficient storage. Having a way to wind the cord around a couple of posts on the back would make it a bit less bulky to store on the shelf. All in all 100% two thumbs up. A final thought. The manufacturer refers to using textured bags on this unit as the "chamber mode" to distinguish it from the nozzle mode. This should not be confused with the term "chamber" as applied to true chamber sealers that only use flat, non textured bags. On this unit, it is the nozzle mode that uses the flat chamber bags, same as true chamber vacuum sealers, and the chamber mode uses the textured bags like those used by Food Savers. In any case, this unit can do both modes and they both work really great.

Great product. Seals quickly. Works with smooth mylar bags and the rough seal a meal typ as well. The seal time is adjustable so thick or thin is not an issue. You can even suck liquid through this machine no problem, because it has a catch container that is super simple to hook up. Afterwards, just suck some mild soapy warm water then a simple rinse and you're good. This sealer is GREAT!

Update to original review: There was a issue with the sealer sucking up the the vacuum bags and I had to pull it away from the top part of the sealer. I called the manufacturer and he promptly told me he was sending me a new machine, and he did. This is customer service I appreciate. I did send him a video of the problem. I use this machine quite a bit and it's a workhorse. I highly recommend this vacuum sealer and know the product manufacturer will live by their warranty. Original review: Where do I start? Ok this vacuum sealer checked all the boxes of what I wanted. I chose this one in particular because it seals Mylar bags. There is a larger version of this machine, but for me my bags are not longer than 12 inches. It can also vacuum canning jars, but you have to buy the attachments for large/small mouth jars. It marinated taking the air out of the plastic bag and seals the bag with no mess because it has a suction tube that will catch what comes out. Now, let's talk about sealing Mylar Bags, there is a small plastic piece that comes out to vacuum as much or as little as you like which I use for freeze dried foods that need extra heat for sealing. There are a couple other freeze dryer's that are more expensive and doesn't always fit larger bags for large roasts or foods like that and you might have a mess after it's done vacuuming and sealing. It's a very good machine. No mess with this vacuum sealer.

In general, this is a very high quality machine. It does a great job vacuum sealing except when using smooth bags. While it does support smooth bags, it does not get as good of a vacuum as my chamber vacuum on smooth bags. It does a much better job with textured bags, where I feel I have an excellent vacuum achieved. I like that it will vacuum on a timer and then automatically switch to a seal so that you can do a one-step vacuum seal action. It is very convenient and has worked well for a few dozen bags so far.. I'd say if satisfactory with smooth bags if you plan on storing things for a short while and don't require a really tight vacuum.

I needed a vacuum sealer with better flexibility and this thing fits the bill. Great functionality and a super thick heat seal. I’m fully confident this thing will keep a strong seal. I did have issues with the heat sealer on my unit and contacted the seller. They were super responsive and very quickly resolve the issue A+ seller and A+ product.

This is a wider size machine sealer with multiple options. You have the option of using smooth and texture bags (like FoodSaver bags). You can continuously use this machine for doing large scale storage with Mylar bags or freezer bags as the unit keeps itself cooled down. My Mylar bags are 7 - 8 mil. It seals up to 12" (gallon size) bags. You can seal mason jars and canisters (or bags) for marinating meat. The machine also has an option to put air into a bag to keep from crushing the food (such as home made potato chips). I found when releasing the seal bar, press slightly on the corner, then press the side button and it will release promptly. I really do like the option of using any type of bags. If you have the space for this machine, it is an excellent choice. Their customer service is friendly and will work with you.

Great sealer and excellent customer service , highly recommended

I was impressed with this vacuum sealer at first because it sealed both regular and flat Mylar bags perfectly. But the second time I used it, it just stopped working. Even though it made noise like it was still working, the vacuum part didn't do its job. I hadn't touched it since the first time; I just left it on the shelf for two months until I needed it again to freeze some meat. I was really disappointed; a $200+ appliance should last longer than that. I contacted Amazon to return it, even though it was past the standard return time (I bought it 3 months ago and used it one time successfully). They proposed a "partial" refund, and I accepted it, recognizing that a partial refund is better than none.

After a few weeks of use now, the Magic Sealer is a fantastic bag sealer for small numbers of plastic packaging and we've been impressed on its ability to seal different plastic types (mylar, polystyrene, plastic foil, etc). Great value for the cost. We would recommend to those doing routine, small quantity heat sealing/ packaging.

Uk brought but with us plug

As soon as I plugged it in smoke poured out and it went bang. Returning and not impressed.

What a versatile vacuum sealer this is. Well made with sturdy construction. The most important thing is that I can vacuum seal both types of bags. I now look at bags other purchased products have come in. If they are a little thicker plastic or come in a mylar bag I will use it. This saves me some extra money on bags.

Had slight issue with machine but they helped me resolve the problem with fast and amazing communication
