As always, a GREAT video. I use a vacuum seal Canister that I purchased from Rain Country here on UA-cam and then remove the air using a break bleeder. A variety of jar sizes fit in the canister and it seals those jars as good as any factory sealed jar.
Different systems pull different levels of vacuum. Those brake bleeders, on average, pull from around 17 to 22" Hg. Not a very good vacuum. You want something that pulls around 28" Hg or more. This is what the commercial vacuum sealers typically pull. (As well as 2 stage vacuum pumps). Allegedly, the Pump N'Seal pump pulls a surprising 28.9" of Hg. That is beyond adequate. Btw, your average Food Saver system is like the brake bleeder pumps. Very few of them go beyond 23" Hg or so. I have a Weston commercial vacuum sealer (ALWAYS used foil lined bags for maximum gas blocking) and Pump N' Seal system to cover _all_ and any needs I have. But if I had to recommend one and only one, it would be the Pump N' Seal, because it is the most affordable (and reliable!), at around 30 dollars. It doesn't work well for bags, not even their special bags, but it is awesome for glass jars.
Thank you so much, what a great demonstration! you have helped me decide what I am going to invest in and how I am going to preserve food and cook meals. I have seen the 1990s pump-n-seal commercial, and it shows how you can marinate in a few hours Vs overnight and just keeping your current food for your household from going bad too quickly. with the options you have shown this will help me with things around my home. Warmest regards and best wishes...
I was fortunate, a few years ago to find a set of the Tilia smoke color cannisters, including the 8 qt. Also, found that the estate sale, a set of the cannisters with a white lid, like the one you used. *They are out there, just have to hunt for them.* The FoodSaver cannisters also work for most pop top glass jars that have the sealing ring inside the lid. As long as the jar fits inside the cannister, it's worth a try to see if jars of xyz product will work. If it's vacuumed sealed like a jelly jar, it will likely work. That's why I was so happy to find the Tilia large cannisters. The 8 qt will seal a 1/2 gal mason jar. My off grid backup plan is a manual brake bleeder kit, used with the FoodSaver jar sealer accessory or with a FoodSaver cannister. To go with it, I have an extra set of the jar sealer lids, for just in case. Was thinking about trying the VP05, until you mentioned it being somewhat difficult to take apart. Thank you. My hands aren't as strong as they used to be.
I have a Food Saver, no attachments. It’s very loud. I haven’t used it in a couple of years. Thank you for the demonstration your suggestions, are very useful.
Great video! I have a question/request for trying. I've never seen the Pump n Seal before and I'm wondering if the tabs would work with my USB or manual pumps I already have? Are they really much different than the bag-style flap seals? I just feel like the pump is overpriced for what it is and I would buy the tabs as a stand-alone if they'll work with the pumps I already have. A second question is how the tabs are reusable the way you showed? Does the jar lose its seal when you remove the tape? What covers the hole you made if you remove it?
Yes, the jar loses its seal when the tape is removed. If removed, nothing would cover the hole. Since I have never used the tabs with other vacuum sealers I am unable to answer your other question.

You want something that pulls around 28" Hg or more. This is what the commercial vacuum sealers typically pull. (As well as 2 stage vacuum pumps that start at around $100 US or so). Allegedly, the Pump N'Seal pump pulls a surprising 28.9" of Hg. That is beyond adequate. Btw, your average Food Saver system is like the brake bleeder pumps. Very few of them go beyond 24" Hg or so. I have a Weston commercial vacuum sealer (ALWAYS used _foil lined_ bags for maximum gas blocking) and a Pump N' Seal system to cover all and any needs I have. But if I had to recommend one and only one, it would be the Pump N' Seal, because it is the most affordable (and reliable!), at around 30 dollars. It doesn't work well for bags, not even their special bags, but it is awesome for glass jars. (And you can use the Food Saver and F.S. like attachments with the P.N.S. system and forego the pin/hole and check tabs, at least for standard sized mason jars [regular and wide mouth ones]). Anyways, point is that _not all vacuums are created equal._ A low-medium vacuum (brake bleeders, most Food Saver and Food Saver like in store vacuum sealers, etc) will *_not_* preserve near as well as a medium and medium-high vacuum (2 stage vacuum pumps, commercial grade food sealers, Pump N' Seal, etc).
I have two chamber vacuums. One for primarily bags with a sealer. And another big 2 gallon with a big pump that will do large jars of all types. It's also good for chemistry projects, taking out air from paints, lots of cool stuff. I also have the food saver type of attachment with a brake bleeder pump, but I find it kind of annoying to use 😂 Though it works in a pinch with no electricity.
Thanks for showing all of the options. I have that cannister set that I bought with my first Food Saver MANY years ago. I almost got rid of them a while back and am so glad that I didn't. I think they stopped making them around the time that people discovered they could be used to vacuum seal.
I have all 3. I had the pump and seal long ago. The problem was I also had mice and those rascals ate the seals. So I learned to put another lid then a ring.
For me the foodsaver adapters is the most sensible option since I already have a foodsaver and the jar adapters. I seal things in the foodsaver bags more than I do canning jars. Luckily, the foodsaver I picked up this week on PrimeDay came with not only the adapter hose and also a canister. I bought an older model foodsaver (new in box). I had to get a new foodsaver since we recently moved and my 10+ year old foodsaver wouldn't work in our new country. The foodsaver canister can be used with the canning jars (for dry storage) but also with any sort of twist close jar that will fit in the canister. Old pasta jars, old jam jars, if it fits in the canister and was capable of holding a seal, then it can be vacuum sealed in the canister.
With the Pump N' Seal, if you're using standard size mason jars (whether regular or wide mouth), you don't need to poke a hole and add a check tab, _if_ you have the Food Saver or similar lid attachments, you can put the pump directly over the hole on the top of these.
I have an older FoodSaver with the canisters; I LOVE It! I too wish they would bring the canisters back, they’re so convenient for items I access frequently. Thanks for this helpful info.
Over the years, I've tried several vacuum sealers. The Food Saver attachments just never worked that well; the canister was awesome! But it got so worn out it quit building enough pressure to seal. I have a hand pump which looks sort of like the Pump n Seal except it uses the Food Saver attachments and always works. I may try the Pump n Seal for mylar bags (after they're heat sealed). Just wondering if the tabs are "sticky" enough to stay on mylar - my label maker labels can (and have) curled loose. Thank you!
Great video! I have all of these and am finding the VPO05 is what I reach for most of the of the time. I have also added one to my camper. I appreciate you making this video; I was thinking of getting rid of some of these options, but you made very good points so I willl likely keep them also on my emergency back up area
I bought the Avid Amor canister set a year ago this month, and they work very well! I do seal non-mason jars, especially Smucker’s jelly jars by putting them into the canister. I use my Food Saver most, and its hose works best with the canisters. I also have a black one like yours, and it does hurt my hands, but it works beautifully. I wanted a rechargeable because I live in Hurricane country. I would not get the Pump type because I have macular degeneration and can’t see well enough, nor do I want to buy the strips. I have a third type that uses the same attachments as the Food Saver, but their hose does not fit well. The cap attachments are newer and my old Food Saver caps are falling apart so I will continue to use the FS but buy it some new cap attachments because the new attachment’s hole is just too small. Like you, I need my husband around to manhandle the black one!
I know my food saver has paid for itself over and over. I’ve used it for many years. I did get some canisters and a meat marinade one a longtime ago, they work great. I do like the other sealers too and I have a very small hand. Thanks for sharing and have a blessed day!
I love your review comparison. It's really helpful. Especially when considering how difficult one over the other would be easier when it comes to hand strength.
I love ❤️ my Food Saver! I have been using them for over 30 years add don't plan to ever be without one. My only complaint is that they discontinue the older models (that work perfectly well) and when they *do need replacing you have to figure out all of the new features and buttons. I also have Pump N Seal in case of power failure.
I was watching Darcy she was saying that you could you could use those for canning was at the goodwill and I saw a small round one and I was like mum I should get it happy I have it have not used it yet But glad I got it
@@PrepperPotpourri sorry I was thinking of something else I not sure what it was but whatever but glad I didn't use it because about a month ago I was at petco and got so dehydrate chicken so to keep my girl out of the chicken bag i put them in that container
Very interesting, I have never vacuum sealed jars, I was skeptical on the pump and seal, until I saw you use a regular lid, not worried about not having electricity.

The pop and seal also wastes lids, tx for the review. The SP05 is what I’ve got, it’s great!❤❤
You can also use an automobile brake bleeder.
😂if you have the hand strength 💪

It might be just me. No one else has mentioned that problem. Perhaps it will get easier to open once I use it more.
I use mine all the time. It was a game changer when I found out that I could seal pop top jars.
😁I like all three, and I really like that one of them works even without electricity ❤️
Hey, TubeSpanner runs on most devices though a browser like Chrome or Firefox. It does not require an app download.Me too
@@PrepperPotpourri o thank you very much.
I have been vacuum sealing for almost a year its has been a money saver. I have 2 of those but will looking into the pump and seal. Thank you
I have a Food Saver, no attachments. It’s very loud. I haven’t used it in a couple of years. Thank you for the demonstration your suggestions, are very useful.
I wanted to get into a vacuum sealer and knew exactly who to get advice from on it! Thanks for this video! :)
I use the canisters for vacuum sealing. Works great! I just ordered the VP05 on Prime day.
Nice!

I think I am going to order the Pump and Seal. Thanks for the demo.
It is a good manual back up
Do you not need an absorber, either oxy or moisture, in the vacuum jars?
I do not usually use an oxygen absorber for jars -- just Mylar bags.
you can use the pump and seal with the foodsaver attachments. My pump and seal came with a attachment so you can use the food saver attachments. 😊
Good to know
Do they all pull the same amount of vacuum? Making a seal is only part of the requirement removing all the air is another.
I have two chamber vacuums. One for primarily bags with a sealer. And another big 2 gallon with a big pump that will do large jars of all types. It's also good for chemistry projects, taking out air from paints, lots of cool stuff. I also have the food saver type of attachment with a brake bleeder pump, but I find it kind of annoying to use 😂 Though it works in a pinch with no electricity.
Sounds great!
I never had a failure using the jar in the canister method, but I need that jar lid lifter gadget.
It really works well.
Thanks for showing all of the options. I have that cannister set that I bought with my first Food Saver MANY years ago. I almost got rid of them a while back and am so glad that I didn't. I think they stopped making them around the time that people discovered they could be used to vacuum seal.
You are probably right LOL
Another great informative video. Thanks Prepper!
You are so adorable! Plus helps learning tricks.

Good Prime deal
@@PrepperPotpourri It was, it was roughly 50% of the normal list price. : )

good tip
Let’s say I’m using the foodsaver with attachment for jars. Approx how long does it hold the seal? Short or long term?
Should be longterm
I have an older FoodSaver with the canisters; I LOVE It! I too wish they would bring the canisters back, they’re so convenient for items I access frequently. Thanks for this helpful info.
Me too. I don't know why they stopped selling them.
Great comparison test. :-)
Just purchased VP05. Works great for my purposes. i did have trouble at first separating the two parts, but once I did then it wasn't so bad.
I had the same experience
“These all suck” 🤣🤣🤣
Over the years, I've tried several vacuum sealers. The Food Saver attachments just never worked that well; the canister was awesome! But it got so worn out it quit building enough pressure to seal.
