The rolls are available in two widths so you can make your bags in any size you like. 8" and 11" widths. These machines are awesome! I have been using them for years upgrading as they become available and passing my other ones down. Have given many as gifts. The containers come in very handy as do regular mason jars with the attachment to seal the lids.
What a wonderful video! I purchased the FS 5330 model from BBB after seeing that your link wasn't working. I think most likely because the model numbers changed from 5300 to 5330, you may want to correct your link. The machines are identical, all the same great features too. Food Saver has been sealing food in my family since I was a kid, my parents trusted them and always replaced older models with the current ones. This will be my 5th saver in 40 years! Thank you for such a great review and love your recipes from your blog !!
Hey I just found your video. You are so awesome. I have many challenges. Recall is one of them. Ok so I have a new Foodsaver coming next week. The Foodsaver FM5200. My old Foodsaver is 25 years old. It was time. I am a long time canner and grow lots of food but decided since my freezers are full it's time to vacuum seal flour, beans, nuts, dehydrated fruits and spices etc. I am so excited. Hey I'd rather have kitchen goodies than jewelry anyday. P.S. I also pre marinated my meats with seasonings before vacuuming sealing. Cheers.
FoodSaver® Easy Seal & Peel 11" x 14' Vacuum Seal Roll, these are new and have yet seen them on here. I got packs on clearance of amazon for $6 2 pack, bought 3
This version has 1 draw back, if you are like me change bag sizes on the fly the auto feed becomes a problem. You don't need it to keep resealing every roll you remove and reinstall just because a small size is better than a big one at the time needed.
I want to understand, but IDK? You put in a fresh roll, seal the end, cut a bag, fill it, seal it... Then decide you want the "other size" so you take this one out (which has the end sealed). Put in a fresh roll; do all of that again... And then decide to go back, so you remove the second roll and put back the first. Only this time you feed the plastic thru until you have the size bag you want then lock it and cut the bag... Did I miss something??? Wait are you randomly sealing the end like some obscure superstitious ritual?
I hope the machine is really good, because the design looks way to big and clumsy. "Normal" designed" sealers can do the same, and are way easier to use, and only take up half the space.
I was looking for a video that showed how to use the foodsaver and all the attachments - I don't care what you put in the bag and at this point am not concerned about a plethora of recipies on your site - If you are going to demo products the please by all means demo them - this was more or less an infomercial re your site - if I was a Foodsaver rep I would be looking for people to show how my product works and I don't mean this in a bad way but I want to know how to use my Foodsaver.
Thank you for the demo. I'm not quite sure what you meant about putting the food into the slow cooker - do you mean place the whole thing including the bag into the pressure cooker, etc?
I hope you didn't throw it out. And sorry I'm late. I threw out mine a couple years ago and have regretted it ever since. Turns out it probably has(/had) a leaking gasket which you can replace for a couple dollars. Sheesh I wish I thought of that sooner I just got a new one today. Boy did I miss this thing!
I was looking to see if there was a button on those that would let you stop pumping and manually seal the bag to keep the liquids in. Otherwise have to bypass the vacuum altogether and it only lets me use it as a bag maker but it works. I have the most basic sealer with no digital features. 5:58 I love it! "Don't you guys write me and tell me tell me I'm putting in too much" :-D :-)
@@ricl472 I remember having the same trouble with my foodsaver, you can try putting in a zipper bag (insert brand name here) and putting that bag into your sealer bag (ugh). Or you can freeze the food first (double grr). Or if you feel talented and don't mind wasting plastic you can make bags longer and as soon as machine locks -on the vacuum mode you can use the edge of a square plastic container to press firmly on the bag. IN-BETWEEN the food and vac - machine. There-by signaling to the machine that the air is out and it's time to seal.
I've been using Food Saver for at least 15 years. Your suggestion to add marinade, seal and freeze will make a mess. A better way is to add the marinade, then freeze, then seal. No chance of the marinade coming out while you evacuate the bag.
@ Jerry Ferren , also the marinade could cause the gasket to come out, then ruin your machine.I had done it her way once, & it caused my machine to break, as the seal or gasket came out.Far better doing it the way that you suggested.
Exactly. Many people who choose to marinade will do this. Also, if vacuum sealing soup, pour it in a regular zip lock bag. Lay flat in freezer. Or sit it up in freezer. Depending on what cooking container will use later. Then take frozen soup "block" out of freezer bag and place in vacuum bag. Seal away. But vacuuming liquid will produce a big mess. And that would be the least of it.
Everything was GREAT, GREAT GREAT but you have to market.... say your web site s-l-o-w-l-y! so we know where to go... Because of you, I know how to use the food saver, but I don't know you or your site! S-L-O-W-L-Y and repeatedly say your name and your web site! Thanks ...
Jim P I am. It’s not an every week usage type of appliance for me. But when we go to Costco and get a large package of cheese or meat or a ham then the machine comes in quite handy.
Parker Brown PERFECT QUESTION. I needed to know. I hate waste AND the extra clutter space--occupying Material in the freezer. It defeats the purpose of space saving The market bought meats font leave all that extra material.
Do keep in mind the axiom "practice makes perfect." If that was indeed her second or third bag she is doing quite well. I have 6 bags on a shelf that are about too small to use (cause I like to save plastic too).
Thank you for the demo. I just got mine and wasn't quite sure how some of it worked. You answered a lot of my concerns.
Joyce M Le Mire yay! Thanks so much
You did a great job clarifying... It would have been frustrating winging it..

I haven't finished watching the video yet. But you're awesome! Love your video!
Now you are a lady I can trust! Love it! You remind me of my mom. Keep up the great work

Mine doesn't have auto feed but that looks like its that way.
Seems like the suction is not strong enough, and there is still air inside...
Hubsenct I suspect Thats user error rather than a machine issue :)
Do u own one? Can post a video on how strong the suction is? I'm interested to get a good vacuum sealer
I suggest you research the gaskets they may need replacing. Don't take my word for it though, I don't work for foodsaver.
I hope the machine is really good, because the design looks way to big and clumsy. "Normal" designed" sealers can do the same, and are way easier to use, and only take up half the space.
I just got this today and I’m curious about the issues with wet seals?
I have no leaks or anything but I’ve got no clue what I’m doing with this

Pourquoi je ne le trouve pas en français??? Merci!

Julie Griesdorf yes that’s what I was talking about
Cool demo and nice discussion
but one long time ago... just tried to use it, vacuum not working, although using the hose for it works but not the bag...

They all do, go to foodsaver website and watch videos it will show you how.
You're putting in too much.
Lol, I couldn't help myself I had to. jk jk

Buy the marinade container, most machines have special fuction for this

Stephen thanks for the feedback! It’s www.twosleevers.com and my name is Urvashi (not that writing it down probably helped her much lol!)
You're really funny. I like the way you talk. Oh, and by the way, your hands aren't gross. :)
I dont think she saod her gands are gross. She said it would be gross to put hand inside prior to putting food.
Are you still using this?
Jim P I am. It’s not an every week usage type of appliance for me. But when we go to Costco and get a large package of cheese or meat or a ham then the machine comes in quite handy.
Nice 22K Bracelets
J Perez thank you! Sign of bring East Indian lol
Why did you waste so much baging material? There was so much space available to fill more or use at a later time.
you have to leave like 3 or 4 inches above the food for a good seal...
Parker Brown
PERFECT QUESTION.
I needed to know. I hate waste AND the extra clutter space--occupying
Material in the freezer.
It defeats the purpose of space saving
The market bought meats font leave all that extra material.
@@dank9288639 that's a lot of waste.
Do keep in mind the axiom "practice makes perfect." If that was indeed her second or third bag she is doing quite well. I have 6 bags on a shelf that are about too small to use (cause I like to save plastic too).
Français s.v.p.
Lady talks way too much instead just sealing
