Strengths: The appliance not only works well but it is also beautifully designed and easy to use. I can highly recommend it.
Weaknesses: I wish there were more detailed instructions with it how to use it.
Summary: I am single and these days you can never get products packaged small enough for just one person. So you are dependent on your freezer to save the portions you do not eat the same day. As a result you need good packaging to prevent the stale taste that you get normally with freezing the left overs.

Strengths: Ease of use
Weaknesses: Expensive consumables; quite a bit of space between the vacuum channel and sealer
Summary: This is obviously a product that has undergone several generations of improvements. It is well thought-out, and easy to use. The included 'infomercial' DVD is also actually not a complete waste of time to watch.

Consumables (bags, rolls, lids etc.) are quite expensive relative to what they are. Also, the distance between the vacuum channel and the sealer is a good two inches. This means that for rolls and bags, each time you seal, you use up this distance 'for nothing.' I understand that the distance is a margin of safety, but it feels like a bit of a waste.

Overall however, a good addition to any kitchen, with the possibility to use it as a way to vacuum pack clothes etc.
