Don't Take Our Word, See What Others Are Saying

I have had 3 FoodSaver units over the years, and one Mueller. My last FS died the same week as the Mueller, and we use our vacuum sealer a LOT, so I did some research before buying a new one. The new FS don't have great reviews, and I wanted a unit that could take a lot of use and do a lot of bags without overheating. IT's also VERY simple to use. Going up to a commercial grade machine was definitely worth it! With all my previous vacuum sealers, I have done double seals on both ends because they invariable lose the seal. The PrimalTek does a much better seal and I only need 1 seal, which saves time and reduces the rapid-fire use of the machine. It suctions faster, too, and very thoroughly. I haven't used the jar attachment portal yet, but I'm going to assume it does the same. I ended up getting a second one of these, and know they will last me a long time. If you buy a lot of food from farms, fish, or hunt, spend the extra and get this - it's well worth it.

After owning a very inexpensive type vacuum sealer, this sealer is pure quality. I use a sealer a few times a month to a few times a week. I seal jars more often, but need to process foods for the freezer, the primalTek is perfect. I feel like this product is geared towards hunters and it does make me cringe a bit, however with this in mind, I know I have a product which was meant to last. The feature I like are the storage area for the rolls, the double seal, the ease of use and the controls. If you are looking for a sealer that is a workhorse, I recommend this product. It’s not a cheaply made price of plastic. The design is thoughtful, the materials are quality. If you need to process a lot of food at one time, or you need a sealer that lasts with a warranty! Hands down!

I bought this vacuum sealer to upgrade from my old Food Saver sealer. I’m so glad I did. I wanted a sealer that didn’t overheat when packaging more than a few packages, vacuumed and sealed quicker, didn’t take up a lot of space in my cabinet, and was reasonably priced. This is it! I packaged about 150 lbs. of meat much more quickly than I had ever been able to before. It never overheated and vacuumed and sealed as fast as I could prep the next package. Despite its professional performance, it’s size is residential friendly. It stores in the kitchen cabinet so it’s handy for those small jobs of repackaging bulk buys from the grocery. The only con I found with it compared to my old one is you can’t seal the one end of the bag without cutting it off the roll. This was a minor inconvenience which I quickly overcame. I also found the customer support very good as I was deciding which model to buy, as they quickly answered my questions. If you have a garden, process your own meat, or buy a lot in bulk, the Primaltek is a great investment. I highly recommend it.

I got The 15inch model, it literally has every option you could need. Most home uses should probably get the 12inch but if you have big game parts you will most likely need the 15. We usually specialize in lamb and beef and we were able to fit an entire lamb shoulder in a bag. Amazing. I truly Cannot say enough good things about it. It’s big, good footprint making it sturdy for heavy use. Also I am Able to use food saver accessory for the food saver jars and zip lock bags. Absolutely love the double seal.

We have owned other vacuum sealers and love what they do for us. So, when the last one laid down and gave up the ghost, I decided to find something more commercial. I can't say enough good things about the PrimalTek. It is like going from a go cart to a Humvee. The dual dc motors are more powerful. The moist setting allows for finesse. I don't believe the double seal bar is even mentioned in the description but is great. The seal function is awesome and seems to even seal through greasy liquids consistently. Best vacuum sealer I have seen or used!

So far, an exellent unit and worth the extra money. I went back and fourth on this unit vs. The weston. After seeing the weston in Costco, I'm really happy I went with this unit. The construction is nice, and the double seal really makes a difference. It does sous vide and marinade bags really well. It kept up with me feeling it a new bag every 30 seconds, and processed 10 chickens I'm a row.
