S C Johnson Wax Ziploc Vacuum Pump/Bags Food Storage Bags & Wrap Reviews
91 of 91 people found the following review helpful Works way better than expected., By This review is from: S C Johnson Wax Ziploc Vacuum Pump/Bags Food Storage Bags & Wrap Former Reynolds Handi-Vac user here. I like the Handi-Vac, but the bags are no longer for sale at any stores around here. Saw the Ziploc Vacuum Pump at a local store for a few bucks and decided to give it a shot. This review will focus on comparing the two since they are a similar product.Key points: * Ziplock pump does not use batteries; it is a manual pump. Reynolds Handi-vac is a battery hog. * Ziploc pump is extremely easy to use. Doesn't require you to find a "sweet spot" like the Reynolds one. Takes maybe 3-4 pumps to get all the air out of a bag. With the Reynolds pump you sometimes have to sit and fiddle with the position of the bag/pump to get it just right before it will start vacuuming the air out (all while wasting battery life). This is a non-issue with the Ziploc vacuum. * The Ziploc bags are much higher quality than the Reynolds bags. They just seem thicker/more durable. * Cost of replacement bags isn't bad. $2.75 for them on sale...

That's true, but that doesn't obviate the usefulness of this device. Using this you can get MUCH more air out than by the old method of "pressing"the air out, yet you don't have to pay $50-$100 for a more expensive system.Users should note the simple valve design: it's just a hole in the bag, covered by a stiffer piece of plastic that has a semicircular cut in it. So under vacuum, the stiffer plastic seals against the bag. So, logically, if you want the vacuum to hold better, I suggest taking a 2" square of clear packing tape and taping over the valve, making sure there are no seams. That should do the trick. Also, note that it's a ziploc-style bag--I doubt that the ziploc seal itself is capable of withstanding a vacuum perfectly for that long. If you have a $15 handheld bag heat sealer, you could heat seal parallel to the ziploc for a much longer... Read more 21 of 24 people found the following review helpful I'm really disappointed, This review is from: S C Johnson Wax Ziploc Vacuum Pump/Bags Food Storage Bags & Wrap I bought this product at a local store specifically so that I could store dog food. It's much more economical to buy a big bag of food than several smaller ones, but the food in the big bag goes stale before my small dog can eat it all, so I was excited to try the vacuum bags. I bought the starter set and a box of gallon bags, figuring I could buy refills online.First of all, the instructions should explain that you need to leave about an inch or so of space at the top of the bag so that both layers of the area where the vacuum seal is can lie flat on the countertop. If this area is not perfectly flat, the pump won't work. The pump itself works great--I confess I got a little thrill to see it actually removing the air, and to pick up a bag of dog food that was now seemingly solid as a rock. I quickly filled, sealed, and vacuumed the second bag, with similar results. When I picked up the first bag to stack them and put them in my pantry, however,... Read more |
