Customer Reviews
Average Rating: Rating: - This handy device takes storage one step further The is great for what you get, and what you get is quite a lot. First of all, just buying a set of clear plastic storage containers like this at this price is a pretty good deal, but when you add the vacuum technology to it, it makes it quite a better thing altogether. The vacuum is a very versatile and useful device. You can use it to marinate your dinner in half the time, store perishables in the refrigerator for extended periods, and extend the shelf life of most of your dry goods. Admittedly, most dry goods aren't terribly perishable, but you can save things like crackers, nuts, bread crumbs and cereal flakes for a lot longer with these jars. Buying bulk spices and storing them in a vacuum is definately a good idea- see my tip below about using mason jars. I'd also say that the vacu-vin is great for wine drinkers- if simply corked and refrigerated or left on the shelf a bottle of wine will get stale overnight- the vacu-vin will preserve that half bottle of wine for a few days. (I've heard a lot of people say that the system is pretty much useless with wine, but it's always worked for me). The company probably wouldn't want you to know this, but using the rubber stoppers in a regular old mason jar that has had a whole drilled into it works well and extends the value of this system immeasureably. Rating: - Super Storage System The vacu-vin food saver storage system is great! The container forms an airtight seal for leftovers or dry foods, allowing for a long storage time. Buy the larger, cheaping bulk packaged items at a savings, then repackage into smaller more usable portion using the vacu-vin containers. Put that extra few pieces of meat on the bar-b-que, cook and then put into the vacu-vin container for use later in the week, great bar-b-que later on. The containers fit very nicely in the fridge, easy to clean up and are easy to use. Simply fit the vacuum into the seal and pump the handle until it "feels" firm, and the fresh food is well protected, because all the air has been removed. (Remember the old info-mercial for a product like this? But it costs about 3 times as much to do the same thing). These items, the containers, marinater, wine stopper (bottle stopper), are a staple in my kitchen and cooking. A great product and a great price! Rating: - Perfect for keeping freshly Juiced items I was looking for a way to keep my freshly made vegetable and fruit juices and the Vacu Vin Food Saver fit the bill. The only thing I noticed was that it is a bit difficult to tell when most of the air is removed but that is minor as a few extra pumps won't hurt anything. For anyone that is an avid Juicer as I am this is a great product. About the only thing that I could say negative about this product is that the gaskets that seal each unit are not available should they become brittle or ripped but they are adequate to last a long time if not abused.
