Then I found out it worked and I can't find the bags anywhere! I heard that the Ziplock ones work with this -- but they are crap. I am now looking forward to the Food Saver version!Sylvanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13186604429680496847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944032234700286009.post-58588804451158375422009-09-09T14:40:34.198-05:002009-09-09T14:40:34.198-05:00I have had mine for about a year and I love it.

I did find however that food saver is coming out with a similar hand held version that will be in stores the end of this month.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944032234700286009.post-40216890274404895922009-08-20T19:47:25.026-05:002009-08-20T19:47:25.026-05:00StephenC, that is good to know.

I also am thinking about getting one for my camping box.<br /><br /><b>Nell Jean</b>, thanks. My husband got a kick out of the "Oh yeah!" And good to know about the noise.

The device makes about the same noise as the bulky Food Saver I use.<br /><br />We buy cheese in bulk, cut it in pound chunks and package in vacuum sealed bags, stored in the refrigerator. It keeps for months.Nell Jeanhttp://www.seedscatterer.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944032234700286009.post-67045579663558447302009-08-15T12:13:10.293-05:002009-08-15T12:13:10.293-05:00I have had my Vac for a couple of years.

I'm sure you'll be satisfied with the results of freezing stuff. This year my partner and I are into serious gardening too. We plan to can/freeze everything we can't consume in a timely way. Good luck.Stephen Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10655472931298198270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944032234700286009.post-11039671735190375112009-08-14T22:15:10.295-05:002009-08-14T22:15:10.295-05:00StephenC, glad to see you here.

I used to post my recipes on that blog, but felt that they just needed a space of their own. And it gives me a place to talk about kitchen gear :)<br /><br />How long have you had your Handi-Vac? I have never used any other vacuum sealer, so I didn't have any thing to compare it to. I am still pretty happy with it. I know that I could probably get a more air out with a more expensive model, but I'm hoping that this will do what I really need it to do - save my food and not take up my precious kitchen space. I have packed beans, kale, broccoli and spinach from my garden and chicken and fish that was on sale. I will post here what happens.Sylvanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13186604429680496847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944032234700286009.post-10264201979389328702009-08-14T10:31:30.945-05:002009-08-14T10:31:30.945-05:00Two things: I have been very pleased with my Handi...Two things: I have been very pleased with my Handi-Vac, although at first I had some problems related to the multi-second delay from the time you apply the "wand" to when the vacuum begins to form; the other thing is: I was surprised to learn of your very similarly named blog (similar to mine - theobsessivechef.blogspot.com. I don't guess that's been any sort of a problem. I get only sporadic traffic and comments. Good luck with your efforts - I'll keep watching your site.<br /><br />StephenCStephen Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10655472931298198270noreply@blogger.com
