From The Manufacturer

Vacuum sealing preserves food by blocking the growth of mold, fungus and bacteria that are responsible for ruining the food taste, appearance and texture. Why have big lumps of uneven frozen blocks or half-full food containers that take up a lot of freezer space, when you can neatly stack airtight bags on top of each other? Prepare your meals, seal them and freeze them. Ideal for baby food preparation too, especially for working parents with limited time. Lightweight and compact, this vacuum sealing system can be placed on any counter top. Its stain resistant housing will not absorb accidental spills, and it is easy to wipe it clean. Use it to reseal wine, oil and vinegar too. Once the seal is broken, shelf life of most liquids dramatically drops. Using the wine stopper cork included in our starter kit, you can reseal half-full bottles of wine, which if remain unsealed, would probably lose their spirit and end up in the trash can.

Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

It is easy to use with touch controls on top, although a few users have noted that it’s possible to accidentally change machine function settings unless you’re paying attention.
The thing that makes the NutriChef stand out is how easy it is to use, you just place the bag in, clamp the lid, and press either seal or vacuum & seal.
Ideal for daily use, it extends the shelf life of deli items, dry goods, fresh and frozen foods, and even foods with a high moisture content.
