## Description

Comes wit 5 free Vac Bags. This advanced, 2nd-generation ThriftyVac Vacuum Sealer is even better than the ground-breaking first-generation ThriftyVac system, because It comes with the rugged "QuickVac" Outer Bag that vacuum packs your food bag quicker and more effectively than the original outer bag. The ThriftyVac Vacuum Sealer works by creating a vacuum around your food bag, then closing the seal on your food bag while it's still inside the QuickVac Outer Bag. This process lets you vacuum pack resealable food bags that don't have vacuum ports in their sides. This is important because vacuum ports can leak when placed in refrigerators and freezers. If your food bag cannot hold a vacuum by itself, then you can place it inside one of the free reusable, resealable TV2 Vacuum Bags that come with the ThriftyVac Vacuum Sealer, and then vacuum pack both bags together. The ThriftyVac Vacuum Sealer works without using batteries or electricity. It consists of a plastic Housing, a regular-size 12x15 inch QuickVac Outer Bag (which serves as a flexible vacuum chamber), Check Valve, and a hand-operated Vacuum Pump. This patented, compact system measures just 6 x 2.5 x 2 inches and easily fits in any kitchen drawer. The steps in the vacuum-packing operation are listed below: 1. Place your food inside your resealable plastic bag. 2. Close all but 1/2 inch of your food bag’s sealing strip. 3. Place your food bag inside the ThriftyVac QuickVac Outer Bag, with the open ½-inch segment resting on the Housing's curved Sealing Ramp. 4. Tuck 3 inches of the open end of the QuickVac Outer Bag underneath itself; pump out the air; and use your thumb to press the OPEN 1/2 INCH SEGMENT of your food bag closed. 5. Open the QuickVac Outer Bag and withdraw your vacuum-packed food. 6. PRESS YOUR THUMB ALONG THE ENTIRE FOOD BAG SEAL TO ENSURE IT IS TIGHTLY CLOSED. ThriftyVac works best with TV2 Vac Bags, because ziploc-type bag only hold a vacuum if labeled "Vacuum Bag."

    Saves a lot of money!
  

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2014*

Contrary to what some reviewers say, this is actually very easy to use. I practiced once (where I look about 3 minutes trying to figure out how this contraption works). Subsequent uses are very fast and easy. I was hesitant at first whether I should fork more money to get one of those motorized vacuum sealers out there. In the end, I decided to get the Thrifty Food Vacuum Packing System instead as I was curious to see if I could save more money by using normal ziploc bags. (those vacuum bags used on sealing machines are really expensive. Remember, you are likely to use more than one food item for each meal, so the cost of bags add up quickly). I just use a double seal zip ziploc bag but a normal one should work fine. While it is not the strongest vacuum, this presents a nice weak to medium vacuum solution. Contrary to a reviewer on this page, the vacuum is certainly better than using the "submerge the bag in a bowl of water and then seal it up" technique. I used to use that technique. Trust me: the ThrifyVac food vacuum is certainly better.The real cost of vacuum packing machines is not the vacuum machines themselves, but the bags you need to purchase to use with those machines. At 40 of 50 cents a piece, a meal using a few items or portions would easily cost $2 each time I cook. Now imagine doing that over a year. For many people, their vacuum packing machine just ends up sitting in a corner of the house after a while. It is like a printer, where the real cost is with the ink. With the ThriftyVac Food Vacuum Packing System, it is the cost of a ziplock bag - which you would probably already use anyway to store food in your refrigerator,I bought this to be used in Sou Vide cooking, and to individually vacuum pack meat that I buy in bulk at the market so that it stays fresh for much longer in the freezer. Much much longer. I live alone, so packing my food this way in portion size packets makes things more convenient when I have to thaw something for a meal. With the ThrifyVac Food Vacuum Packing System, I now purchase food in bulk and save a lot as the food last a lot longer in the freezer.

    Deceptive advertising - doesn't work with regular bags
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2014*

Probably like many people, I bought this product because of its promise to vacuum-seal normal store-bought zip-top bags.  It won't.  Don't be deceived by the reviews (I wish I hadn't been); it will never work with normal bags and there's a very simple reason: the plastic in normal store-bought zip-top bags is incapable of holding a vacuum.If you Google around (which I did), you'll see that polyethylene, which is what Ziploc freezer bags are made of for instance, is porous and can't hold a vacuum.  In other words, to make the product work, you have to buy special bags... which kind of defeats the whole purpose of buying the product and which is what, to me, makes the advertising of the product deceptive.There's nothing this product can do to make a normal Ziploc or Glad bag - which wasn't designed to hold a vacuum in the first place - hold a vacuum.  The maker of this product should make this clear in the product description.Oh, and this product falls under some "hazardous items" heading here at Amazon meaning it's unreturnable.  $22 down the toilet I guess.

    Most zip top bags that I have tried (and I have tried at least 3 different brands) will lose 1/4 of the vacuum within the first
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2016*

Does what it claims to do, but the major flaw is that it relies on creating a vacuum in zip top bags; most of which are not designed to hold a vacuum. Most zip top bags that I have tried (and I have tried at least 3 different brands) will lose 1/4 of the vacuum within the first few minutes and then another 1/4 over a few days so what you are left with is a vacuum not much better than you could have done by hand. Of course this is not the fault of the product but the concept of it is slightly flawed.If you do intend on using this product you will need an 8 inch impulse / heat sealer that you need to use to permanently seal the bag shortly after you vacuum the air out using this product.
