 You'll use it everydayMay 25, 2010
By J. Cavaretta
Owned for a couple weeks now. It's worked very well. Does a great job sealing, and vacuum packing works wonders for holding flavor while storing food. A fantastic surprise to this machine is that you can use it to pretty much seal any plastic bags, which i didn't know. I thought it was only for vacuum packing in the foodsaver bags, but you can use the sealer on cereal bags, potato chip bags, and even the plastic bags that bread comes in. Had i known that, i wouldn't have pondered the decision for whether this was really something i would use enough to justify the purchase. I've been using it for something everyday.

Will work 18 out of 20 timesApr 07, 2010
By Brad
I've used the V2240 for 2 months now on a fairly consistent basis. In total I've probably vacuumed sealed at least 500 packages from trail mix, dried fruit, granola... and it is still going strong.
The only two complaints I have:
1.) It will only vacuum seal Foodsaver bags, not ziploc bags. Costco sells them pretty cheap.
2.) The space between the sealer and vacuum channel are too far apart causing the waste of roughly an inch of bag for each vacuum seal.
Overall, I'm very happy with this product and would recommend it.

Awesome!Dec 16, 2008
By A. Tyre
I have used foodsavers for years...I'm not quite sure what the other reviewer is talking about, but I love this. This was a replacement for an older one that finally died. I use it often, and have never experienced any issues with it creating a vaccuum seal even one time. I love this and it's advanced features.

Xlnt vacuum sealMay 14, 2010
By Porkee Peeg
After years of use and hundreds of vacuum seals my model 1075 would not seal bags properly. Vacuum OK but even a double seal would let air in after a few days. I have owned FoodSavers since mid 1997 and this is my third unit. Mind you, I vacuum seal hundreds and hundreds of packages each year and have gotten my $$ worth out the past two units. Looking over all FoodSaver models, I selected the V2240. I like the fact it resembles the older 1075, simple to use, and doesn't waste excess bags like the new vertical units do.
My only dislike is the "moist" setting. It's about 5-7 seconds shorter than the "dry" setting. Kinda useless as it doesn't quite finish the job. I prefer to freeze the product until the excess moisture has frozen then vacuum seal on dry. Works like a charm as I just sealed a bunch of smoked bratwurst and fresh caught Coho salmon.

Love it!Apr 11, 2010
By Ragna
This is soooo worth the money. Just what I've saved in cheese that doesn't mold is worth it.
Used it to seal up lbs and lbs of dried fruit. Easy to use. Works every time with no hassle.
I also bought the two sizes of sealers to use on Mason jars and use them a lot. Good product.
