You can save pounds of food and thousands of dollars every year by getting you and your family the FoodSaver V3240 Vertical Vacuum Sealer. It uses improved sealing technology to suck air out quickly and prevent bacteria from growing on and rotting your groceries. Food stays fresh for many months and will be safe to eat when you need it.

Features

Instead of sealing once, the FoodSaver V3240 Vertical Vacuum Sealer and FoodSaver double seals food to keep it fresh and edible for longer. Bacteria-inducing air and moisture are completely sucked out of the food bag. There are two separate settings for sealing dry and wet foods. There are also additional settings to determine the speed at which the food is sealed.

Vertical design is practical and frees up space on the kitchen top. The appliance can also be rolled and stored away in the cupboard for future use.

Pros

Having a reliable food vacuum sealer like the FoodSaver V3240 Vertical Vacuum Sealer in the kitchen is a great investment. In an unpredictable economic climate and skyrocketing prices, it helps to saves as much money as you can. Sealing food can cut down grocery costs significantly and leave you with enough money to spend on other expenses.

This sealer is also ideal if you enjoy cooking with fresh produce. You can stop vegetables and fruits from growing mould, whether peeled or unpeeled, cooked or raw. It also helps to preserve homemade and store-bought breads, meats and poultry. Foods that usually spoil quickly like fish and other seafood can remain fresh for weeks.

It works well with cooked meals as well. If for any reason you lose your appetite halfway through a meal, you can seal it and eat it at a later stage. Many types of food can be saved, whether in solid or liquid form.

The newer vertical construction of the FoodSaver V3240 Vertical Vacuum Sealer saves a lot of space. Instead of spreading out horizontally, it extends upwards to take up as little room as possible.

The quality of food preservation is doubled by the double sealing feature. Food is protected from harmful germs and burn from keeping it in the freezer too long. You are allowed to season or marinade foods before sealing. When you open sealed bags, food will taste as great as it did before.

Cons

There is not much negative criticism from users about the FoodSaver V3240 Vertical Vacuum Sealer. Some people have a hard time learning how to use it but an instructional booklet is available with each unit for guidance if you get stuck. People struggle particularly with purees and sauces but with enough practice, it gets easier.

Should you buy it?

Sealing food is not something that only doomsday preparers do. It comes in handy in your home, camping trips vacations, and the office and in many circumstances. Having a double-sealer like the FoodSaver V3240 Vertical Vacuum Sealer is even more beneficial because food can be preserved for a long time to save you money.

    where can I buy this model and how much this would cost? I have been looking for this unit. Please feedback as to where I could purchase. By the way, is there a special plastic bag that is used for vacuum packaging? Many thanks.
