Product Description
The V3040 FoodSaver Vacuum Sealing System keeps food fresh up to 5X longer and prevents freezer burn. Beats ordinary storage methods like zipper bags, foil, plastic wrap and containers which allow air in. Using special sealing bags or rolls, the system removes air and applies heat to create an air tight seal around food. You can vacuum seal and refrigerate or freeze meats, fish, poultry, baked goods, whole meals, leftovers and more, and still enjoy the full flavor, nutrition and freshness of foods. Compact, vertical design features an easy-lock bar to secure bags in place for sealing and Moist/Dry Food Settings to adjust the seal level for either moist or dry food. The unit also has an accessory port which accommodates vacuum hose (included) for use with all FoodSaver Containers and Accessories. Starter kit is also included containing 1 FoodSaver Heat-Seal Roll (11 in. x 10 ft.), 3 FoodSaver Heat-Seal Pre-Cut Quart-sized Bags and 2 FoodSaver Heat-Seal Pre-Cut Gallon-sized Bags.

Good value if you cook a lot!
By R. Worcester
Received as a gift and didn't use it for a year; been using it for about 2 years now. I started smoking meats & cooking for large parties and then started saving left-overs in this vacuum method. I have been very pleased with the freezer-shelflife of smoked meats, vegetables, most anything. I try to use them within 6 months, but had a package that was 9 months old last week and it was perfect as the day I packed it. It cleans easily if meat juice is around. I have the flat-model, but they recently came out with a vertical model that would be easier to store.I now cook much more on the BBQ than I need, wrap the meat in 2-4 person servings, and pop in the freezer. Very easy to use and economical, especially if you use the hard-plastic containers that came with mine (also available as an option, search for them). The packages thaw in cold water in about an hour, or you can slit the plastic wrapping and put it on a plate in the microwave...either way works well and the food is absolutely as good as the day you packed it in the vacuum seal.

Sticks but works
By Mama Smurf
I have had a very simple Foodsaver for many years but wanted a newer model so I could seal dry goods in jars for my pantry. I use this Foodsaver almost daily, between putting meat in the freezer and making my own spice recipes and finding dry goods on sale. The only thing that I don't like about this model is that the door does stick. I've even thought of trying to take it apart to find out why. I researched several models and couldn't find one that there wasn't something that someone didn't like about it. This model works well as long as you aren't doing large batches of meat.

By Jonathan Mendez
I bought this secondhand through another site. I'm pleased with it for my own purposes. But honestly, its a bit bulky, and not quiet at all. The seal isn't perfect, but good enough to cook sous vide with for things that aren't going to be in the water bath too long. I wouldn't buy this one again.
