Customer Reviews of FoodSaver Pro III Vacuum Sealing Kit, White
Customer Rating:  Summary: FoodSaver Pro III Comment: I have had this for about three years, I use it extensively every day since then. It has worked flawlessly, it is a good product that I would not want to be with out. Customer Rating:  Summary: GREAT PRODUCT!!! Comment: Won't use anything else to seal packages of Alaskan salmon for freezing. Simple and easy to use. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Customer Rating: Summary: Food Saver Quality-- F Comment: I have had two failures of Food Saver units all their high end Professional series(brand new) this year--- Sad that their quality has gotten questionable. I had a two year old Pro III unit-- Food Saver said that they had shipping issues and could not supply replacement seals. The seals need to be replaced often. After months of calling Food Saver for replacement seals, Food Saver offered to send me a new Professional III. That unit then lasted for 60 days, then the sealing bar failed. I called Food Saver and was told that they would not do anything for me even on a 60 day old replacement unit. I should have kept my orginal unit and bit the bullet for months more unit Food Saver could ship seals. I went out then and purchased a $300 Food Saver Game Saver Pro (most expensive unit food saver sells). That unit has lasted 60 days and the LED lights have failed. Food Saver saver is shipping me another unit, but I am out over $400 and for the cost new machine that failed and shipping costs. I would have not been out anything likely if Food Saver could supply parts for their units (my orginal two year old unit) . Food Saver's answer to indemnifying me as a consumer for part of the hassle and expenses that I have had is an eleven dollar roll of bags. Customer Rating: Summary: Not for large family gardeners Comment: I bought the Pro III because of the excellent reviews and despite the few reports of machine failures. Both sets of opinions turn out to be accurate. In my view, the term "Pro" is misleading. It's a great device - for relatively casual use. It is not a machine to be steadily used in the kitchen of a large vegetable garden. The instructions recommend against packing foods with liquid or any kind of material with dust (such as dry herbs or seeds.) It needs to rest for a half-hour after every thirty seals (fifteen bags when working with rolled material.) I wish I could have learned about these restrictions before purchasing the FoodSaver. We grow and freeze fruits and vegetables for an extended family of seven and lots of friends. Consistent with some other reviews, Our Pro III barely survived two monthes. I don't think this was so much a flawed product but rather an item that is advertised to be more than it really is. Fortunately, Amazon has accepted mine back and we will be looking for a more robust unit - probably a Vacumaster which has an internal evacuation chamber more suitable for prepared products like blanched vegetables, chopped fruit and even things like applesauce. Customer Rating: Summary: better updated model Comment: this is a better updated model. the previous model's sealing strip was imperfect and ould make an incomplete seal...not repairable either. beware of this fault. it is common. More Reviews Top-of-the-line machine with a wide range of features, yet as simple to use as pushing a button. 
Choosing Appliance -> Built-in Ovens Ease of cleaning is well worth considering at the outset. Stay clean liners resist dirt build-up but pyrolitic cleaning is the ultimate. It burns off all baked-on debris at 500°C so that all you have to do is sweep out the resulting ash. Look out for ovens with a steam cleaning facility, too, and remember that some ovens have removable inner doors that are easy to clean. Choosing Appliance -> Servicing Your Appliance Buying this "service deal" can be expensive but if you feel happier knowing that you are protected from breakdown for a few years, shop around insurance brokers to see how prices compare.

Useful info -> Built-in Ovens Built-under ovens may be single or double cavity and also need a separate hob. Double cavity ovens are essential if you want to cook one dish and grill another at the same time. |
