Reynolds 00590 Handi-Vac Vacuum-Sealing Starter Kit Reviews
| 98 of 100 people found the following review helpful  It's Time to Throw Away the FoodSaver!!!, By This review is from: Reynolds 00590 Handi-Vac Vacuum-Sealing Starter Kit (Kitchen) I have used a FoodSaver for years and was very pleased with it until Reynolds came out with this Handi-Vac. It is easier to use than the FoodSaver, takes no room on the counter, and is significantly less expensive to buy and to use. I bought mine at Wal-Mart for $9.48 - the FoodSavers shown on the page at Amazon list for $119.99 and $139.50.I could not be easier to use. Use a sharpie to label with bag with contents and date packed, put the food in the bag, zip the bag closed and then vacuum. You are done. No rolls, cutting, making sure that the seal area is clean or getting a bulky sealer out using it and then putting it away again. It is less expensive to use. You can buy a carton of 17 one quart bags or 9 one gallon bags at Wal-Mart for $2.84. This works out to 17 cents per bag for the quart size and 32 cents per bag for the gallon bags. The quart FoodSaver bags list on Amazon for $19,99 for 48 or 42 cents a bag and the gallon bags list for $19.99 for 32 bags...

Abe (San Diego) - See all my reviews This review is from: Reynolds 00590 Handi-Vac Vacuum-Sealing Starter Kit (Kitchen) I had been putting off buying a Food Saver for years because of the high cost and also the counter space it requires. I also knew that if it was something we'd have to put away and pull out every time we wanted to use it, it would stay in the cabinet. I almost bought a Frisper because it's smaller and cheaper, then I saw the Handi-Vac in the Sunday coupon section. First, it's way cheaper at the grocery store or Target.It's tricky to figure out the best placement for the nozzle at first, but you get the hang of it and the wand sucks air out pretty well. I love that you can seal something for the fridge, open it to pull part out, then reseal the bag like it was new. Usually green onions start to go brown after a week in the veggie drawer. I sealed some up a month ago and they still look like new, and I've even opened the bag twice to pull onions out. It's not recommended that you seal soupy or liquidy items (I guess something you could do with a Food Saver)... Read more 32 of 32 people found the following review helpful Easy to use. Love it!, By Jamie "Jamie" (Olympia, Wa) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Reynolds 00590 Handi-Vac Vacuum-Sealing Starter Kit (Kitchen) I cannot imagine how anyone could have found this frustrating to use. (perhaps the person who wrote that review got a defective one? ) Mine works like a dream and couldn't be easier to use. I never got one of the large foodsavers because a.) I didn't need one that big and b.) I didn't want it taking up my counter space. This is the perfect solution - It's small, efficient and affordable. I love it. |
