I have one, not that model - I got mine for making meals as my own form of MRE where I know exactly what's in the pouch. I shall be getting a dehydrator soon too. I was concerned with the kind of additives used in trail foods, so many E numbers! So to avoid that I make my own, I have videos about it on my channel. I can also buy foods in bulk on the cheap, cook and store them too this way. I use stickers too - reason, for dates and rotation.
That's awesome Mark! Also thanks for the idea brother. I may have to make a video on making your own MRE's with this unit. Truly appreciate you sharing your experience with a product like this🤘
We have a dehydrator, great for many things, specially jerky. Love it
Man that thing is awesome Grey 🤠👍
I would agree 😁
Simply put I like it! Having the ability to adjust every aspect of it would come in handy. Thanks Grey 🤘
My thoughts as well 😁👍
Nice review Grey, but the first thing was “that thing is industrial! That is some serious food saving!” 🤣
That it is 😁 so far I'm up to 374 bags sealed! Beans & Rice. Chicken, Fish, Pork Chops, and so on. I started sealing up medical supplies recntly.
May want to add a small bag of baking soda in case the beans are a bit hard as they are for longer term storage. It helps soften the beans and it’s already in the bucket and you don’t have to search for some or open another package. I always put a small bag of soda and salt in each. I like the idea of a large chamber, thank you for sharing. Your review of the Exoflow big daddy and the AC unit cost me a couple pennies lol. Mike loves it though. Be blessed ❤️🌿
That's a great idea Jenn, thank you! Oh you guys grabbed one awesome I love my ecoflow, when they were on sale I picked one up for pops 😁👍 God bless you guys 🙏💛
Excellent demonstration. Thank-you ❤
Thanks so much Dee 🙏💛
Grey that seems like it would save time. I looked up the price not too bad for what you can accomplish. Appreciate ya Grey ❤
My pleasure as always 😁
Love this food saver! Mine is a piece of you know what! Lol
This is a game changer! Love all the options.
🤣 understandable, I've had my fights as well with my food savers lol
HERE I AM 😊. Great to see you all. Still Hotter than a 3 dollar here in N Texas. That looks to be a highly versatile product
It truly is and yep the heat has been horrible hear as well 😆🥵
The first thing I thought about when I saw that big machine was: "I wonder if it vacuum seals mason jars?" I was a little let down when it looked like it wasn't large enough but I'm glad you said you saw someone seal a jar. I'd be interested in seeing that!
While researching this product I searched UA-cam and watched several videos now of folks sealing jars. This one channel had 6 jars upright and sealed them. I was like wow very cool 😎 👍
Very good product.
Thanks Fred 😁👍
Great review! I like the options with this sealer! I'm going to put this on my wishlist which is long 😅
😆 I have an extensive wish list myself 🤘
I have been looking at that thing for a year or so. Just not sure if I should pull the trigger!
If it's within your budget its a great product. It definitely saves me a lot of time. Over the past several months I've used it for many different food preps as well as other odds and ends 😁👍
@@GreyManPrepping I'd be curious to see you do like some meat or stuff with some moisture! The food saver has a moisture mode that to me is kinda irritating and am curious if this product seals moist foods easier. I also like the mason jar attachments that come with the food saver but I really think I could keep the food saver for jars only as long as this machine handles moist foods better.
@@neverlookback3382 I think it may, I'm going to post a link here where I think they may have touched on it. I know someone did lol hopefully this may answer your question. I've also seen folks put their canning jars in the unit as well. Let me know what you think. ua-cam.com/video/jYiBjLdqcSE/v-deo.html
Would love to have one, easier for me since my hands don't work to well.....
It was very easy to use. I was skeptical at first as with most things but now I love it 😁👍
Great review, Grey. Definitely looks to be industrial grade and an upgrade option.
Definitely! And thank you 😁👍
I just love ya Grey!! 😜
I know Cbass, luv ya 2 🤗💛
Good review
Thank you Marilyn 😁🙏
Took a chance on a food saver I saw in a thrift store for $9.99 that looked brand new….it works okay. Mostly use it for frozen food, Mylar w/O2’s for long term storage. I like
the large system you demonstrated👍
My wife years ago picked one up a Goodwill and it worked pretty well for about 2 years. For the price, I could not complain lol 😆
Wow great machine very nice review !
Thanks brother 🤘
What I Love Grey is how you share the reviews on all the Item's it sure give us a great view on things you do test on . THANK YOU we bought some great items just because of your reviews on the items. That is so Super we happy on things we got and also thanks for the discount codes that really helps big time 😊. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ❤
You are so welcome and thank you for your support! God bless you and your loved ones 🙏💛
That's really cool I have a food saver. This is like having a Cadillac compared to a Volkswagen. Thank Grey 🙏❤️🙏
🤣 Great analogy Linda 😁💛
These are great machines. My church has one, that we use for the food pantry.
Really that's awesome! Honestly, now that you mention it, I'm going to bring this up on Sunday at church. Thanks for visit 😁👍
Its pretty large appliance, but as you stated its more so a commercial unit. I would put this out in our barn where we process our chickens. We have 4 large freezers out there and 18ft prep table. This would fit in nicely. Grear review Grey ♥️😊
Sounds like a great setup! Something I'd love to have myself 😁🙏
Wow--impressive results compared to my foodsaver. Thanks for letting us know about this product. I like how versatile it is.
My pleasure, the wife and I went head to head using the Vevor & Foodsaver and it did so much better than my foodsaver. It may be a bit bulkier but it kicked butt 😆👍
It seems like a solid unit.
It's pretty cool once you understand how to use the settings. Very customizable to fit your needs. 😁👍
Wow! I would love to have one of those but its out of my reach. I just can't afford one.. It looks wonderful though.✝️❤️
Well, regardless I always appreciate the support. It means a lot Raka, that you watch, comment, and like my videos, you're awesome! 😁 God bless.
I have a food saver and it's TERRIBLE! Just vacuum sealed a few non food items and the seal didn't hold. 🤬 glad I only did a few
I've had similar issues with my medium-sized foodsaver as well. 🤦
@@GreyManPrepping it's irritating wasting materials. 😒
@@MichelleD1989 Yep I totally agree with ya Michelle 👍
Like the product is it easy to clean? Thinking chicken juice? I guess just prefrezze
Yes, I had some issues with juices and your absolutely right freeze it a bit and your good to go 😁👍
Nice new toy, Grey. Have fun giving it a workout. 👍😄
That's the plan 🤣👍
I have a Foodsaver. It does okay but I have had issues with some having bad seals.
This machine is nice.
Off topic.
Have you seen the music video of Oliver Anthony, Rich Men North of Richmond?
I just watched it and I think you might enjoy it.
So far I've done over 300 bags over the past few months and no mishaps 🤞 I'll have to look it up thanks for sharing 😁
Man that's a great song brother!! Added it to my morning drive playlist 🤘🤘🇺🇸
Thought you might enjoy it.
@@MrMinuteman69 Yes Sir 🤘
I have 1000 channels saved in my youtube list... I was eliminating 800 channels... when I came to yours.... this video saved your place on my KEEP list :)
That truly means a lot 😊🙏 Thank you!
Just ordered on Vevor site, registered and discounted, 360 dollars after tax! Can't wait to try it out!
That's awesome! Look forward to hearing your thoughts once you start using it 😁👍
$350 to $450 depending on size, I thought it was gonna be a lot more money than that, guess I'll watch the review now...
Honestly, I thought the price was fair comparing it to other standard vacuum sealers without the ability to fine-tune what your packaging. 👍
@GreyManPrepping Does seem like a fair price, I think I'll order one since I don't own a food saver at all, buy once cry once.
😆 Agreed, if you do pick one up please email me and let me know your thoughts 😁👍
I bought 1 recently and been working great so far. It's heavy because of the oil vacuum pump and step down transformer. I still can't figure out the Two heater bars. As far as I can see only 1 heater bar, not 2 as claimed. Anyone has a clue?
Great question, so far I've been turning of the vacuum to 0.0 sealing one side then flipping it and turning my vacuum setting to where I need it to complete the project at hand. I'll have to do some research
saver.! That is great. Can it do jars as well?
I've watched several videos where they seal jars as well. If you search youtube I'm pretty sure you'll find the video I watched 😁👍
I move just fine with the three I got! 🤣🤣. I say….. Toss It!! 🤣🤣
🤣🤣👍
We finally decided to get a Chamber Sealer as well. It's life changing for us to seal all our meat. Can't believe we didn't buy one sooner!!
Agreed brother! I watched your video where you were sealing up chicken and mentioned ya in this one 😁 This thing is saving me so much time and the seal is excellent compared to using my Foodsaver. Thanks for the visit brother 🤘
@@GreyManPrepping Missed that! So I just watched it all over again LOL Thanks again!
@@ThorHavenFarm 🤣 No problem brother! Had to give ya a shout 🤘
Maybe you could also mention the cost saving vs foodsaver bags. Very informative video. There is nothing better than the chamber option
Great suggestion and I agree love this machine. 😁👍
it is a great deal 400 dlls vs 1000 dlls for the Vac master version... good job dude, I'm goona get one.
Thank you for your support. I hope you enjoy the machine. Have a great evening. 😁
Thanks for the review brother I have a question what do you think the best way to store zucchini long term is
Hey brother 🤘🇺🇸 Well the way I personally store zucchini is I first dehydrate it then vacuum seal them in mason jars. They can keep for about a year.
@@GreyManPrepping I was thinking the same way lol my wife likes to make zucchini bread for the holidays and it's hard to find during the winter months
Sounds yummy 😁
👋🏻 I got three food savers 🤣🤣
Great minds think alike lol 😆
I have one and I love mine , sealed soups and a lot of meat
They are very handy, thank you for sharing your experience with this machine 😁👍
I missed this video, so thank you for mentioning it on your 8/25 video. I think it is a great machine. I don't even have a Food Saver, so I don't think I can afford one of these at the moment. Other preps take priority. I think it would be cool if you made a jig. So the finished bags would fit better in a bucket. Then again, you would probably only fit three more anyway. The current way I package is with mylar with O2 packs, and I use a vacuum, lol.
Love your garden, by the way. I did pretty well on mine. How did you do? I'm going to try my hand at making tomato sauce and pressure canning it.
Hey, whatever options are available to you have it, sometimes we have to get intuitive and find what is affordable and works. Keep on prepping brother 😁🤘 Also that's great to hear that your garden did well 🥳🙏
Pretty darn cool! But then have problems using the food saver I "won" from Rudy ... So it's evident vacuum sealing is not my forte! 😉👍
Some things take some practice, I'll be honest this was easier to use than my foodsaver 🤣
you say VEvor, I say VEEvor...lets call the whole thing off....lol. sorry I had too!! it looks great, a bit bulky to store but its really nice. Question, I use the bag rolls that you cut to size, can you just seal the one side of the bag without the vacuum? And yes, its rosered homestead...that woman with a gadget.. she's awesome too!!
🤣🤣 So yes you can set the vacuum to zero and just use the sealer. Pretty much why I like the darn thing is all the options it has 😁👍
Looks like a sweet machine! Definitely not for a small kitchen counter, though.
That it isn't 😆 Shes a bit bulky. I usually do a lot of my large food preps in my garage so not such a big deal for me personally, but I can see how others may not like the size. I think it would make a great product for homesteaders for sure! 😁👍
@@GreyManPrepping Absolutely! Just not for apartment size living, nor a small condo with limited storage space. It is great for single family homes, & homesteads. I would not have it stored in a townhouse or condo garage, Op.Sec reasons.
great video thank you , i have one question, it looks like you have pre-sealed bags on one end, how does this machine work if you buy the rolls? ( i guess i mean is there a way to seal one end at a time?)
Yes, you just set it to seal and then move forward as normal.
@@GreyManPreppingThank you! that is what i was hoping for.
@@faithoverfear70 My pleasure 😊
As a side note: The machine does not have the option of a double seal. It only has a single seal bar.
Great observation. Hopefully, they'll incorporate that in future designs. The only thing I could do after my initial seal was add another. I've done that in the past with my medium-sized food saver
I have a make-it break-it question: Can you vacuum seal flat, or square, or rectangle, or circle? Like coffee bricks or rice bricks. I’ve always thought vacuum sealing in a round foil cake pan that fits snuggly in a 5 gal bucket would be ideal. I can’t pull it off with regular vacuum sealers. Only thing I hate about vacuum sealing is the un stackable shapes. I might be a little OCD 👀
That's a great question, I think I'll experiment with that Idea this weekend! My email is down below, if you like I can email you my results 😁👍
@@GreyManPrepping I think if you manufactured or 3D printed a form that fits inside the sealer, then used like a gallon sealer bag and got all the product within the form with the edges of the sealer bag hanging over, it might work. I’ll email ya when I get back to my laptop.
Very interesting idea! I'll check my email when I get home from work.
I think if you put the bag into a round cake pan or small loaf pan, & vacuum sealed it, that you would get the shape you want. Bricks or rounds.
@@joanlaufnick9135 Great idea 💡
can u seal potato chip bags? if yes, how long for the seal?
Yes and depending on the chips. I play around with the settings a bit between 1-4
Any machine will vacuum seal beans. I would seal foods that include liquids or marinate meats. Will that machine do that?
I've done some follow up videos sealing jars, liquids, meats and so on. This vacuum chamber has saved me time and creates a much better seal than my 2 foodsavers. This has been my experience.
Can you seal things that are larger like a rack of ribs outside of the unit?
Not with this model, I have to break them down a bit.
@@GreyManPrepping thanks for the quick reply, I’m trying to decide which model.
My pleasure, I hope you find one that works for you 😊🤞
Was this unit given to you for free in order to give a favorable review? Serious question. I'm trying to sift through all the various reviews and trying to compare this against the higher priced units
This was given to me for a review. Favorable or Unfavorable is up to me during the month or so of use. I still use this thing every few days to process foods as well as a few other uses I have found for it. Now to be honest this is the only one of its kind that I have used outside of my normal food-saver vacuum sealers. I'm personally happy with its performance and haven't had any issues. I've used this in other videos as well since the review and plan to continue to use it, as it speeds up my processing time. The only complaint is it's limited to the space inside the chamber. I can't do my 5-gallon mylar bags. I have to break things down to about 1 gallon size which honestly is not too big of a deal. Hopefully, that helps answer your question. I have spoken to others who have this version or similar and seems like folks are happy with it. It also takes up much more space than a traditional vacuum sealer. I have a setup where I process my foods outside of the kitchen. We also use it for a lot of the meats we keep in the chest freezer as well as the fish we catch.
How does it do with Wallaby 7 mil Mylar MRE bags?
So far no issues, I used Wallaby 7.5 mil mylar bags in another video. It was my "How to store flour" video and everything went flawlessly. Jars are a bit tricky but I found a way to do that as well depending on the size of the jar. 😁👍
Now I have something else I need to save for..
🤣 I have a long list myself lol
Looks like a large complicated dust collector. Even taking out the shelf it doesn’t look like you could seal jars any larger than maybe a squatty 1/2 pt jar. My Foodsaver seals bags and both regular and wide mouth jars.
Complicated not too much, but you are right about the jar size it will do jelly & 1/2 pint jars. Now on a homestead channel, I was watching she put the jars on the side, which seem odd to me but it sealed them. Personally, I wouldn't trust it lol Regardless I appreciate your thoughts. Sometimes things are right for some folks and not others. Have a blessed evening Rena 🙏💛
I use quart size Mason jars all the time. Just lay them on their side. Even two at a time.
@@g-whiz286 I'll have to give that a go, thank you 😁👍
The vacuum pump in a FoodSaver is a glorified toy. The motor is the same type used in RC cars. I measured only 11 in. of vacuum in mine.
@@g-whiz286 Wow really, that's quite interesting, makes me want to take a part my old one 🤣👍
Which size unit are you using?
I'm using the DZ-260C 320x10mm in this video
@@GreyManPrepping I don't know why company call DZ-260C. It is clearly on the label in the back DZ-320 vacuum machine. The DZ-320 been around in Asia for about 8-10 years.
@@DLong-wp8su that's quite interesting, thanks for the information
I have a food savet.
Hey Joyce 😁
This unit seems rather big and bulky. Not sure I have a place to set it. I use vaccine sealers but nothing to this scale. It looks very industrial.
It's definitely made for bulk processing. For the amount of food preps I work with it has come in handy. From my dry goods to the meats I buy for the deep freezer. 😁
Good review. Impressive unit but just too big and commercial looking and not something I need.
Yeah, I would say this is for folks who do more large-scale prepping like myself. From all the meats, my garden veggies, beans, rice and so on it comes in handy for me. I've even been using it for medical supplies as well as bulk ammo.
Nice but I can't afford it.
understandable in this economy, most people have a hard time affording simple things like food
I’ve got em all😆🐸🍺🔪🔥
Nice 😆🤘 My heart goes out to all of you out there in Hawaii brother 🙏🙏
Thanks bro. It’s rough
@@johnnyharperscoutstable5386 Praying for you guys brother. Literally an isolated shtf event
Yeah grey. I grew up in Florida going through hurricanes then came out here where we always fend for ourselves. Prepping is a lifestyle out here man🔥
@@johnnyharperscoutstable5386 Roger that brother! I didn't know you grew up in my state 🥳🤘 As you mentioned hurricanes It's been quite a few years since my area has bit hit hard, but unfortunately, it's just a matter of time. I hope all these newbies to Fl are ready!
Well isn't this nifty. I have a food saver. I feel it doesn't do a good job with meat. Never seams to get all the air out. It does better with veggies.
It's definitely nifty for sure, a bit bulky but does a great job on everything I've thrown at it so far 😁👍
This thing is terrible for salmon or soft meat. Leaves too much air. Even at 50 seconds it way too much air. It does a great job in hard items. I bought this for salmon and its now going back.
Good to know, thank you for the added information. 👍
Nope. Takes up too much space and too expensive. Not for me. Good review. Thanks.
Fair enough, my canner is actually about the same size. My dehydrator is slightly smaller. I guess it all depends on your prep space. Thanks for watching 😁👍
Good review
Thank you!
