Space-saving vacuum sealer for fresher food and freezer efficiency
The FoodSaver Compact Vacuum Sealer is designed to extend the life of food storage while minimizing countertop clutter. It helps reduce freezer burn and waste by vacuum sealing food in airtight bags, keeping it fresher up to five times longer than standard storage methods.

Kitchen & Food
Full Review & Insights
Built for both convenience and effectiveness, the FoodSaver Compact Vacuum Sealer offers a practical approach to food preservation. The unit supports vertical or horizontal storage, making it a fit for even the tightest kitchen setups. It features custom Dry and Moist modes that allow users to seal everything from raw steaks to produce with variable moisture content. The sealing process is automated, vacuuming and sealing are done with the press of a button, which is useful for quick bulk prep sessions.
This model includes a starter pack (one roll, three quart-sized bags, and two gallon-sized bags), and is compatible with all FoodSaver accessories. The unit's 35% bag waste reduction is a notable improvement over older models, making it both eco-conscious and economical.
That said, the sealing mechanism can be stiff, requiring significant pressure to engage, which may be challenging for some. The unit can also struggle with high-moisture foods unless techniques are adjusted, like using a two-step sealing process.
Durability feedback varies, some find it reliable for years, while others report issues within a year of use.

Our Take on the Product
This FoodSaver model delivers solid sealing performance in a compact and user-friendly form, ideal for households looking to save space and reduce food waste. It's best suited for budget-conscious buyers, meal preppers, and bulk shoppers who value simplicity.
However, it may not be ideal for those sealing mostly moist items or who have limited hand strength, due to the firm lid latching system. Overall, a dependable option for everyday food storage with good long-term savings potential.
