Thats my point on this topic, if you don't know if you need a foodsaver and have gotten by without it for this long, a $700 vacuum sealer is a ridiculous recommendation.


This. The food savers work great for game and fish. If you are planning to vacuum seal a lot of cooked meals that have sauce/liquid like gravy or spaghetti sauce (if it's all liquid it doesn't need to be vacuum sealed btw, think gumbo) then maybe it's worth the money, but for game and fish I don't see a need for it. I've had a food saver for 4-5 years and it hasn't shown any signs of stopping. I'm guesstimating I've vacuumed 200 different bags of game & fish since I've had it (60 last duck season) with no problems.

Maybe I'm the only one with this model but I have a moist/dry setting on my foodsaver. I have vacuum sealed gumbos, red beans, spaghetti, brines, and chicken noodle soup without the noodles and froze them for later.
