Description
The FoodSaver FM5200 automatic vacuum sealer system makes it easier than ever to keep food fresh up to 5x longer compared to ordinary storage methods. It reduces bag-making steps by 50%, taking the time and guesswork out of bag making and sealing, along With reducing over 30% of roll waste when compared to previous FoodSaver food preservation systems. Plus, the system provides 2-in-1 versatility for freezer, fridge, and pantry storage. Handheld sealer seals FoodSaver zipper bags, canisters, and containers, and marinates food in minutes.
Features
- Save more, waste less: Meat preserved with the foodsaver system in the freezer can last up to 3 years and still taste fresh, flavorful, and freezer-burn free. Prep-ahead meals, leftovers, and produce stored in the fridge will stay fresh up to weeks later instead of spoiling in days
- Express bag maker: The express bag maker reduces bag making steps by 50% compared to FoodSaver V4000 models, thanks to a unique second heat-sealing bar to automatically prep the next bag
- More convenient to use: Easy view vacuum window lets you easily control where you seal while the open roll storage design lets you see when you need to replace the roll. Plus, led light indicators easily guide you through the vacuum sealing process. Just press the vacuum and seal bar to remove the air that causes freezer burn and spoilage
- Very consistent sealing: Equipped with dual heat sealing strips, it's to reach an optimal vacuum level and airtight seal. The FM5200 is durable, high quality, and backed by a 5-year limited warranty
- Automatic moisture detection: Smart technology automatically detects moisture and switches to the correct mode to ensure an airtight seal is achieved. The patented removable drip tray will catch any overflow liquid and is dishwasher safe, making this kitchen appliance easy to clean and maintain

What a failure!
Bought this to replace an older version that we had. THE WORST mistake ever. we have had it now for 8 months and it still won't work to suck the air out no matter what we do. We have had to throw out $100 dollars of meat because thought it was sealed and when we went to pull it out of freezer the seal did not stay sealed or vacuumed pack. Looking for another brand to buy because we are so displeased. I tried to get help with it back in May or so, then COVID hit and kind of lost track of it until we needed it again..and it didn't work.

Love The Updates
I wore my old one out, so I had to get a new one. I chose this one because I like the feature that my next bag bottom is sealing while I finish my first bag. I love the ease of changing the bag sizes quickly, and I love the ability to use my wine stoppers, and my wide-mouth & regular jar sealer. Although I rarely use the zip-lock vacuum bags, I do use them for storing cheeses, so the dual ability is a plus.

I bought this machine from all the good reviews and I'm disappointed. When I press the lever 1/2 the time it doesnt start sealing... I need someone to hold the bag so it dont fall out and someone to hit the lever in the right spot so it starts vacuuming. Sometime when it vacuum's it doesnt pull all the air out of the bag or when it starts sealing some air gets back in.The juices from the meats also get sucked our of the bag and I cant get to it correctly to clean it. I will be getting a different one.

What happened to the quality of previous models?
I was sent this FM2000 as a warranty replacement for a different model that failed less than a year old. This FM2000 is very loud and does not have the vacuum power of previous equivalent models. We have owned equivalent FoodSaver systems for 10 years and this one is the worst. Seems the quality of units is declining over the years. We use only FoodSaver bags and know how to operate the units. So, it is not user error. We certainly would never recommend FoodSaver to anyone any longer.

So happy with my decision!
I bought my FoodSaver FM5000 Series 2-in-1 Sealing System and Starter Kit and I love it!! It is so easy to use and I feel so much more secure in the fact of knowing that by vacuum sealing my meat, poultry and seafood, they will stay fresher longer and there is little or no chance of freezer burn. I am even helping my daughter out by vacuum sealing her meat and poultry because she buys in bulk for her family when it's on sale, and now she knows that it is safer in her freezer for longer. Plus, the vacuum sealed packages lay flat and take up less space! So happy with my purchase!

Poor Quality
I purchased a V3425 FoodSaver from a local Walmart years ago. I was so impressed with this machine. It started loosing vacuum but still worked. I decided to upgrade to a newer model so I purchased the FM4560. It worked great for a while but now it's hit and miss on a good vacuum. I have noticed the bags are loosing the vacuum as well. What happen to the quality of your products. My old model has better vacuum and reliability than my new model.

Two Lemons in a row, But!
bought the 5200 series on 6 May 2020 and love how it worked, as I did my first smaller model two-three years ago. Like my first one the on/off button switch failed and simply would not turn it on after two or three years of use. Here we go again with the same on off issue but this time after only six months on the 5200.. .......... lousy on/off switches. Come on product design fix it! They, Foodsaver, are great though for a new one is on its way sometime as soon as they confirm I've sent it back at no cost to me. I'm getting tired of lemeons!

Useless
This is my second food saver. My first one I had for years and it quit one day. I loved it. This model however, is cheaply made and useless. It just took me 30 minutes to try and vac and seal 3 bags of chicken. The vacuum on it is almost nonexistent compared to the old one and on mine, I have to keep turning it on and off to reset it to even work. I bet I have not used it ten times. It’s junk and I do not recommend this product.

Why does the vacuum start when I&rsquo;ve clicked the &ldquo;Seal&rdquo; button? Just trying to seal bags of chips etc. Is it supposed to do that?&nbsp; We used our old unit daily to simply seal ( not vacuum&nbsp;seal), the fact that the vacuum kicks on is annoying.

<div class="bvseo-author">Asked by: DDahl249</div>
<div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="5558215">
Sounds like it is working as designed. There are two stages of VACUUM, first stage closes the lid and clamps the bag. If you pressed SEAL that VACUUM should stop and the heat seal should engage. There will be a little bit of vacuum sucking the air out of the bag while the clamping takes place, but not much. If you did not press SEAL, then the vacuum will continue until all air is removed from the bag.

10 -18 inches of mercury is not a very strong vacuum. It sounds like that would leave air in the packages.
