Rated 1 out of 5 by Frustrated Ted from Stopped working DO NOT BUY!! I bought this last year and have sealed a total of aboutg 50 bags, worked fine. This morning after sealing about 6 bags, the tray full light came on, as it has in the past, and I emptied the tray. Reinserted the tray, light still on. Removed tray, washed and wiped it clean, dried it, wiped area into which it goes on the machine, light stayed on. removed it cleaned it with a dry cloth, recleaned machine with a dry cloth, reisnerted the tray, light still on. Removed tray again, cleaned everything again and knowing it has an electgric senssor, dried the tray and insertion spot with a hair dryer. Magic it worked for one bag and light came back on. Have tried everything, no luck. I called the service number and they say they are overwhelmed, came to web site as directed. Tried live chat, no onerepsonds to live chat just tells me I am number 1 on hold.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Big Owl from Do not buy - vacuum does not work very long. After a short use, the problem so far is with the vacuum. It does not completely vacuum the air out. It continues to run green lights to three bars. I have to use manual sealing. The accessory does not vacuum at all. So far a piece of junk. Same problem as other people of completely vacuuming the air out. A lot of money for nothing. The first Foodsaver I bought worked fine. I bought the v4440 to save counter space. It took up space in my pantry. It will cost 1/3 of the price to return it for repair or replacement.

Rated 3 out of 5 by IanD from Good but not great. I like it but I don't love it. It has to cool down between each seal so it's slow unless you manage your ergonomics. It won't make the seal under vacuum until it senses that the vacuum level in the bag is low enough- which is good, but It frequently won't trap the bag material well enough to get into seal mode. After practice you can listen to the vacuum pump and tell if it's going to make a good vacuum or whether you need to reposition the bag. The roll materials have a curl to them that can make it frustrating to get the material into the machine and trip the sensor to get the seal process going. Once again you need practice. I have successfully processed hundreds of pounds of fish and venison however. I'd say that around 2% of the bags leak air after sealing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Old Codger from GREAT MACHINE! I have been using this bag sealer for quite a long time. It is the second one as the other one went bad. This one has worked great up to a short time ago. It hesitated to vacuum for several seconds. Cleaning the seal strip helped. Now, it hesitates some before starting to evacuate. Cleaning the strip did not help this time. The externa hose worked a few times lately but now will not start the vacuum process. The bag section appears to work most of the time. Being a retired engineering/technician, I am familiar with most all types of small appliances. Is there anything I can do to clean the inside? Need a service manual. Please advise. (An old bachelor 88 living alone and need help!) Thanks, please advise.

Rated 1 out of 5 by MaddMaxx from Whatta piece of expensive junk! We originally bought an opening price point model and were very happy with it! When it crapped out...we decide to pay $175 for the V4440 model-supposedly an upgrade! This piece of junk stopped vacuuming after 4-5 months! It was sitting on the kitchen counter, useless, until I started to look into fixing it! Bah-nonsense!

Rated 5 out of 5 by wayneb1492 from Does everything I need and more This was a gift a few years ago. We have used it to freeze game meat, chicken and other meats. We power cook and freeze meals. We have also used the containers to store and marinate. Marinating meat is so much faster!!! We have put many likes on this and it still works perfectly.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Taylor b from At first I was happy with it but it kept getting frustrating to seal to the point I was so angry I destroyed it like the copy machine on office space Unfortunately this is a true story 150$ wasted. If your looking to buy one I recommend you buy a ton of the rolls becouse they designed it so you have to waste alot of plastic so it will seal and by the way the rolls are not cheap. Dont try cutting them short to save becouse it will not seal and you might end up in my scenario. Good luck!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by CBell from Sealing DRY ingredients this unit is Superb! I have had a Food Saver sealer for many many years. I recently upgraded my sealer to the V4440 model. If you are only planning on sealing dry items this is a 5 star model. If your intentions are to seal moist and or items with any type of slight liquid to them this is a 3 star model. You MUST fill the bag and put in freezer unsealed. Once the item is frozen then remove from freezer and then seal. If you skip this important step the drip tray sensors will stop the unit from working until the sensors have time to dry out. It can take up to 24 hours before it will turn on again depending on the amount of liquid that enters the drip tray.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Jenbee from Ehh! Wanted this machine as an upgrade and thought it was great at first. After a few times sealing, it quit sealing and I had to go about 3 rounds to get a decent seal. I'm now having to look into another one in less than a year because it just doesnt want to seal great anymore, and I am not wanting our food to be bad because if a seal.

Rated 3 out of 5 by GPri from So so Seals well. Takes more product/bag to reach the part for automatic seal. I'm able to use old Foodsaver to seal one end. When saving tomatoes, the tray fills up and can't use a second time until tray dries out completely. Again using old Food saver as backup. Wish I didn't need the old one. Bought the new one too replace old one, glad I still have it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from 2 in 1 sealer We are on our 4th unit and absolutely love these sealers. We have relied on these sealers to seal everything to marinate, store in bags, cylinders and especially the various size bags. Our past unit had a pulse button which allowed for you to stop and start the vacuum which was wonderful for wet marinades for a full rack of ribs. This current unit does not have this function but that didn't hinder our decision to purchase this particular model. I love that the Foodsaver company continues to keep innovating models for many different uses including sizes that fit in tighter spaces and would travel well. I highly recommend these sealers.

Rated 4 out of 5 by JewlzieB from Quick and Easy I love my FoodSaver. I use it to divide up chicken breasts and ground beef, fresh vegetables, bread, etc. to freeze for individual meals later. I also use it for vacuum sealing wine bottles and marinating bags of steak for grilling. There are so many different bags for different food items at great prices and you can buy them anywhere. Sits well on the kitchen counter without taking up a lot of counter space. This was a fantastic gift from my mother and would recommend this as a gift to anyone else.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Niecy from Best price with all the features I like this machine and it does exactly the same things as the next model up (including pulse) without the price tag. This is a replacement, though. I believe some liquid got into my machine because the accessory port stopped suctioning. It took a while to notice because the regular function (with a bag) still worked fine. Neither I nor my very muscular boyfriend could open the drip tray (without breaking it) to investigate. So, a replacement was needed; I hope this machine fares better. Anyway, considering that I had the machine for at least 6 years before this happened, it was worth buying again. As a bonus, I now have the new bags that didn't exist when I bought this the first time.

Rated 3 out of 5 by mrmedoes from A few flaws keep it from being great This is the 3rd foodsaver that we have owned over the past 7 years, so we obviously believe in the product. It also places us into a good place to talk about this version versus some of the prior: - Look: this has a smaller counter space needed than our prior two, which is appreciated. - Function: the "auto" function is a little tough to get used to versus our prior, and it seems like it wastes a few inches of bags with each use. That said, it has functioned as we've come to expect, just a little more wasteful. - Features: the attachment for canisters is a great idea and seems to work better than the prior generation tube, but the retractable aspect needs to be either fixed or removed from these machines. Ours stopped retracting about 2 weeks into use. It still functions, but the lack of a manual way to retract the cord seriously detracts from its use. Overall, it's nice, and I guess it has a role, but I was hoping for a true improvement, but feel like it has too many trade offs to truly place that.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Flightwingslight from Foodsaver reliability declined with electronics Unfortunately integration of dunction with electronics has declined reliability functional integration of performance resulting in failures; complicated by foodsaver not resolving over time. 2013 manufactured V4440 lasted less than 20 days before demonstrating this usage dysfunction. Much like the brand new last released foodsaver problem of shut down while in progress solved by Amazon reviewers fist hitting the top of the unit to re-engage cycle completion. Foodsaver needs to turn its focus on solving the electronics motherboard functions it appears to me.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Brian68 from Good Luck Cleaning It Works okay. However, they didn’t make it so you can clean the upper area of the inside. Now, seal some fish that pulls fish juice into it and try to get the smell to go away. Tray doesn’t remove. You can pull it out as far as you can but there is no real access to clean the two paddles inside or the absorbent foam. Should be rated for outdoor use only.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Jscott1019 from Barely used and already stopped working I’m sorry, your example review of a few months ago is ridiculous. I bought mine 4 and a half years ago and it just stopped working today. It was barely used for the first 3 years though. I used it yesterday just fine. I am so disappointed and embarrassed because I recommended this to everyone I know! What a waste of money! Lastly, there were 2 fields I had to correct in this review and both time my “recommend this product” reverted back to yes… very sneaky food saver!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bud C from Easy to operate, Does vacuum and sealing rapidly This is my 4th or 5th Food Saver machine. This one is by far my favorite, so far. Have only been using it for three weeks, but we use it almost everyday. I am gathering our garden produce and freezing it. The filled bags are hard as rocks before freezing because the air is totally extracted. While the 4440 does not have the automatic bag sealing feature, doing the job manually is worth it because all of the other features are perform so well. I have to say that I was a bit perturbed when my last Food Saver went bad, but it turns out that it just opened the door for my new favorite.

Rated 5 out of 5 by joesabol from Works as Expected So far, so good. Limited use so far, but as a long time customer, I expect this unit to perform as well as prior units. This is my 3rd, but over 20 years or so. I like that this unit is much quiter than my prior units. I also like that it remains fully backward compatible with all prior products.

The accessory tool still works but I don't use that feature often enough!!! Not happy with this product at all. I paid too much money for it for it not to seal at all now!

Rated 5 out of 5 by TAG007 from Functional I replaced my older Foodsaver with this one and it works great. My old one was OK, but this one pulls a better vacuum and seals better. Albeit, I did read the instructions and changed the way I vacuum seal foods. If it's wet, I'll freeze it first and than finish sealing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Pakuldj from I actually enjoy this... One thing I learned in life is if it's too much trouble I won"t do it. No so with my food saver. When we buy bulk food, I actually look forward to repackaging for my wife and me. I can break it into dinner for two. Many items can be stored up to a year. I don't have to throw away food and I have the savings of bulk buying. Food saver makes it soo easy.

Rated 1 out of 5 by RetMilRob from It simply failed after 27 days It Worked for 27 days and around 20 bags vac sealed. Cleaned it meticulously after each use, the motor started making a ball bearing in a paint can sound and the vacuum power cut in half. After 2 more bags it is now not vacuuming. No liquids used. The sealer requires multiple seals for low temp sous vide and even then the bags split.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Seivada from Best Vacuum Sealer We've Ever Used Approximately 3 months ago our Nesco vacuum sealer had died after only 2 months of moderate use, fortunately for us we returned it and got a full refund. Thankfully my daughter-in-law had lent us her V4440 vacuum sealer because we had to vacuum seal approx. 60lbs of beef that we had purchased along with 20+lbs of fresh garden vegetables. We were so impressed with the ease of use and performance throughout the whole vacuuming process we just purchased one for ourselves. Bottom line: The V4440 vacuum sealer is a true workhorse that functioned flawlessly and is worth every penny. We highly recommend the FoodSaver V4440 Vacuum Sealer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Simple and Easy from Easy and simple to use! This thing is amazing!! Last one we purchased from a different company didn’t last even a year. We got this and it’s so much better! It’s easier to use. You don’t have to hold the bag in place. You insert it and it just works! We bought the vacuum seal containers to marinate in and the chicken that we used came out with umami flavor in just an hour! There was no waiting over a day for the taste to soak in! It’s all simplified and easy! We did buy the ziplock bags for the system however, they haven’t been tested out yet. I’m confident that they will work just as great!

We are sorry to hear about your experience with the FoodSaver unit. To resolve this issue, please follow the troubleshooting steps below:

1. Remove the Drip Tray from your unit.
2. Thoroughly dry the space where the drip tray is placed using a hair dryer or air dryer. The moisture sensors are located in that space and are very sensitive which is why additional drying is advised.
3. Repeat the drying process with the Drip Tray itself.
4. Reinsert the Drip Tray.
5. Plug the unit in.
6. Press the cancel button twice in quick succession.
As a result of this, the unit should reset its operation and resume its functions.

I am happy to inform you that the unit is capable of sealing regular and wide mouth mason jars using the Jar Sealer set. To use the unit with the Jar Sealers, remove the transparent reservoir from the Handheld Sealer Accessory which will result in a tip being exposed. This tip can then be inserted into the hole on top of the Jar Sealers.

To retract a hose that has been pulled beyond the recommended length, please consider the following: 
1. Place a FoodSaver&reg; unit on the edge of your counter or similar surface. 
2. Then, with the hose hanging over the edge, pull with light but abrupt force downwards to dislodge the spring. 
3. While pulling, release tension fully without letting go of the tip of the accessory hose. 
4. Repeat step 2 as many times until the hose goes back in.
