Product Details

Description
This FoodSaver Multi-Use Food Preservation System combines the power of a heat sealer with the convenience of a retractable handheld vacuum sealer, in one unit. Use the heat seal strip for long-term preservation in the freezer, and the handheld sealer for short-term preservation in the fridge or pantry. This Food Preservation System keeps food fresh up to 5x longer in the freezer compared to ordinary storage methods, and also helps prevent freezer burn. FoodSaver can also help fridge and pantry items stay fresh for longer. For even more ways to use your FoodSaver, try the pulse setting to safely seal delicate foods, the marinate setting for flavor in minutes, and the dry and moist settings for an airtight seal, regardless of the type of food you're sealing.
Features
  • KEEP FOOD FRESH LONGER: This FoodSaver Multi-Use Preservation System keeps food fresh in the freezer up to 5x longer, and fresher longer in the fridge and pantry, compared to ordinary storage methods—and helps prevent freezer burn as well

  • PULSE/ MARINATE/MOIST/DRY SETTINGS: Seal delicate foods, like baked goods, without crushing using the pulse setting; marinate in minutes with marinate setting; dry and moist settings ensure an airtight seal is achieved regardless of the type of food you are sealing
  • MORE FEATURES: Roll storage with built-in cutter bar so you can create custom-sized vacuum seal bags; time-saving feature makes bags from rolls faster by cutting your bag as you're sealing your next bag; alignment tool and angled opening ensure ideal bag placement; removable drip tray

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Includes a great FoodSaver Container! This FoodSaver vacuum sealing system included a great container that you can set to either marinate mode or vacuum/store mode. You use the FoodSaver to vacuum out the air. Nice addition to the regular FoodSaver. The unit itself came with an ample supply of sealing bags and the instructions were easy to follow. When you are cooking for only 1 or 2 people, it is nice to make a normal recipe-size portion and then just seal and freeze the rest to eat another day. This is a great way to accomplish that.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Worked great for a while I bought this approx 18 - 20 months ago and immediately loved it! However, it stopped vacuuming completely about six months ago and never switches to the seal feature. I read up on it and the overwhelming response was to replace the seals. So... I attempted to order replacement seals only to be told they don't make them, but there is one that will fit. Sort of. I love the fact that I can take advantage of food sales but not thrilled that this machine is temperamental. I'm torn because I want to replace it but feel I shouldn't have to after using it once a month on average AND I don't know if I'll have the same problem if I purchase a different model.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Doesn’t work out of the box Have used FoodSaver for many years. Needed to replace and purchased VS3130 at Kohl’s. Did not know there were so many versions that appear to do the same thing. Handheld sealer does minor work (at all) on machine. Does not give me confidence in the brand after having a much simpler design years ago that simply worked until I wore it out. Also, do not like that sits so tall that cannot line up bags as easily as once before, can’t see where you are putting the bag while closing lid and keeping everything in place. Lastly, where did the accessory port for the hose go? That worked, and especially much better than the cheaply conceived handheld thing that doesn’t work in my case.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Only worked for the first 3 vacuum. I bought this Costco version of it over the thanks giving sale. I wanted to love it. But unfortunately it only works for 3 vacuums. After that, it either doesn’t vaccine nor vacuums little bit and seal it. Too sad. I returned it to Costco today, but I can’t get the sale deal anymore. Now I better search which company makes working one....

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love it! We got this to use with a variety of foods. We bulk buy steak, ground meat, chicken, sausage and we divide up and vacuum seal! Easy to use, does a great job! We make and slice our own bacon and vacuum seal that in meal sized portions and love it! Best choice we could have made!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from New Foodsavers not as good as the older ones. If I hadn't already had the Food saver Professional II for over 15 years I would probably think this was okay but there is no comparison. The new one is made cheaply. So light it moves all over while using. Much louder sound and takes twice as long to vacuum and finish. Our old one still works beautifully but the seal is lifting off of the machine so we have to be careful. We were told that you can no longer replace this part as you once could.. We processed a deer today and we used both of them so we could compare. We hope our old one continues to work because we doubt this new one will last too long,!!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Hand Sealer for bags doesn’t work This is the second unit where the pump doesn’t work with the hand sealer. Exchanged the first one now the same problem. Worked for two days. Now pump just runs with no suction. Turned it off put it on regular seal, opened closed the unit. Terrible.
Date published: 2020-11-21
Rated 5 out of 5 by from SEALS GREAT If you do not put the top of the bag to about the top of the drip tray, then no, it won't seal properly. But if you do it right, it's AMAZING. Its called "user error". Just check out a YouTube video or something. I love mine.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Just takes up counter space From the day I received this item it has not worked. My unit did not come with instructions and although it was sold as new it appeared it had been opened at some point and possibly returned. To try to use I looked up instructions on the website, watched YouTube videos, and had my mom look at it when she was here recently. She has one that works and she recommended. We have determined that mine unit maybe defective. I tried contacting customer service several times via phone and after waiting on hold for several minutes each time my call is forwarded to the survey about my experience with customer service. I’ve never been able to resolve this, so I have a very expensive paperweight.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good to have food saver This FoodSaver is easy enough to use. I experimented with sealing different things. One was a ice bag for therapeutic purposes. Worked like a champ. I sealed precooked salmon burgers to put in the freezer. And, I sealed a bag of cereal. All pretty easy. There is one design flaw I have to mention. You have to push down extra hard on right hand corner to make the safety interlock make connection. I will get a lot of use from my FoodSavor VS3182.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great variety of capabilities! This food saver is elite! It has so many great features that makes sure my food stays fresher longer. Plus, it helped me better organize my refrigerator by reducing the amount of Tupperware containers I used to have taking up space. I vacuum seal raw meat and fruit when I get it and it greatly increases the amount of time I had to eat it, I hate when food goes bad before I have the chance to eat it, and am especially anxious about storing meat. It also has a handheld vacuum that works on zipper bags and Tupperware. Plus, a cutter to size the bags based on the food so there is less waste. It sits well on my counter and has a nice silver finishing, so it looks premium. I’m glad I got this!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Such a value item for my kitchen I have never had a food saver before and I have to say that I love this machine. It is very compact and it matches my stainless steel kitchen. I read reviews before getting this and many said it doesn't seal. I totally understand why. If you don't have the end of the bag inside the dip tray properly, it won't seal. But if you make sure you cut the bag long enough to be able to have the whole end in the tray, then it seals beautifully and wonderfully. I love watching how it sucks all the air out. The hand held sealer is a life saver. It helps me marinade food fast and delicious. This machine comes with many bags and rolls it is such a great deal. I love my food saver and I highly recommend this model.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Had high hopes for this FoodSaver ! I had to get a FoodSaver replacement in a hurry because mine stopped working. However this one isn't one that I would recommend! The manual part that I use a lot has a broken piece of plastic in it, and I can't find any way to remove it. The FoodSaver is very MANUAL, 1. you have to close and open it with a manual lever, very confusing. There is NO ACCESSORY PORT for my canisters, bottle sealers! Can't believe it would be a very reasonable purchase as it's so limited in use.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Vacuum Sealing and Food preservation system This is seriously the life saver! We buy some meat as a bulk when it comes to the sale. After we started using this vacuum sealing system, we don't see any ice burn on our meat. This keeps foods fresh. I use this for meat, fish and also use for my cooked prep meal. This helps our daily life so much easier. This is one of the amazing kitchen gadget I got so far. It's very easy to use. I hope a lot of people try this. This is great. I would like to recommend this to anybody and especially who wants to keep their food fresher for a longer time.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from disapointed I wanted a Foodsaver for a very long time so I finally bought one about a year ago. I even purchased several of the Foodsaver containers and ziplock bags. I recently noticed the items I froze after using foodsaver that the bags didn't completely seal. Although, the leakage was slight it caused a mess as well as leaves me to question how safe the food really is now. The built in attachment for bags and containers has always been temperamental to say the least. I thought it was user error when I first got the machine. It is not! The attachment MIGHT work perfectly the first time or never after several repeated attempts. When the machine works as "Designed" it is amazing but constantly fighting the hand attachment and redoing bags due to failed seals is a waster of time and money.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Absolutely crap We had an older model that worked great but was getting old. We decided to replace it with a new it. We've had it for a while now and it I could count on 1 hand how many times it's worked. It went in the trash today. So disappointed.
Date published: 2022-02-20
Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far, so good! So far, so good! I am getting the hang of using the device, after wanting one for years. Basic items, like left over Christmas ham, are easy and work as expected. Just tried pre-freezing a quiche (hash brown crust - thanks Steve Docy!) and it appears to have worked great with minimal deformation. Will thaw in a week or so, but I expect good results. Yesterday I used the pulse mode on bread: Very happy. It looks evacuated and I did not crush the bread. Someday I will try Souse Vide... Putting a block of cheese in an extra long bag has worked well. You can re-open and reseal, keeping the cheese fresh for longer in the refrigerator. I may look into buying Ziplock, vacuum seal bags now that I see the value.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from New model not an improvement over old. I recently purchased this model as my old FoodSaver wore out after eight years of use. I am not pleased with the new features. The lid will fall on my hand (ouch!) if I have not pushed it hard enough to catch. I do not like the heating element exposed. I do not like having to CRANK the handle to turn it on every for every bag - twice actually - to make bag and to seal when filled. My hand joints hurt after sealing 12 pounds of beans in 2-cup bags. I would LOVE to take it back and get another like my old one! New, but NOT improved.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Terrible!! Does not seal properly!!!! I haven’t had a good FoodSaver since the first one I purchased over 15 years ago.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from This upgrade is a downgrade I purchased A very similar model at Sam's Club to this one. It is not nearly as easy to use as my 15-year-old unit. I'm replacing my 15-year-old unit because it stopped automatically sealing after the vacuuming process. The ergonomics on this unit are not very friendly. Having to push the lid all the way up and force it into a stop position makes this definitely a two-handed unit. Also the angle in which the bags have to go in to be sealed is not very efficient I had much better luck with my old unit that was flatter instead of angled. And I used it for the third time today and on the fourth bag of food I tried to sell the vacuum did not automatically shut off to seal. Hopefully this is not a chronic issue as that is why I bought this one to replace my old one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Replacement unit, a step up Replacement purchase and I really like it. I have used the Food Saver devices for many many years. I have always stuck with the basics, as I did not feel I needed the advanced features. Over the years, units have worn out, and I was able to replace gaskets and tubes, but this last time, the gaskets are no longer available. I decided it was time for a new unit, and went with the unit with the built in hand held attachment. I like that it has been designed to hold bag rolls in the bottom and can seal new bags quickly and the slicer works from either direction. I like the elevated design and more visible labels on the buttons. Not super fancy, but definitely a step up from the older flat design.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sleek and efficient This was beyond what I could imagine for a vacuum sealer; we had one that was probably 15 years old and I had no idea what i was missing with an upgrade. This is sleek and easy to store. Easy set up and easy to use. Makes a great seal and also has tons of extra items to make storing food a breeze. Overall super happy with this product. So far haven't noticed any downsides to it. Instructions make it easy even for a first time user. Great for sealing and infusing meats to avoid freezer burn. Or saving leftovers for winter food prep including fresh summer veggies.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not so happy... This product is not a easy to use as the last one I had. We thought the manual option would be better and less parts to break. The problem is it is hard to figure out where to put the bags and how to use it product. Not real happy.
Date published: 2021-01-06
Rated 4 out of 5 by from A Little Tricky to Use I finally had the opportunity to use this. I had an original model of the food saver from when they first released them. I was hoping this newer model would work a little better. It's basically the same technology but with a newer exterior. I followed the instructions to a T and still had issues consistently getting the air out of the bags. I was hoping it would work a little better. I have not had the chance to use the marinating function but I will say that I like that it has a spot to magnetically hold the piece that sucks the air out of the marinate container. The older model you had to attach the tube and it was one more thing to keep up with. On this unit it sits towards the back and attaches with a magnet. That is a nice feature. The unit came with a lot of bags and supplies which is nice. Overall, I give it a good review because perhaps I will get better at it sucking the air out over time.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from This product is not as advertised!!! My rating is based upon what they advertised versus what I got. They advertised the Foodsaver VS3130 as Stainless Steel, it's not. It's silver plastic and looks like crap amongst my other stainless steel appliances. They advertised this as having the Sous Vide vacuum mode; it doesn't. It was one of the main reasons I ordered this vacuum sealer. I tried to submit a complaint to them through their website, but after spending half an hour filling out their form and searching for the required "date code", I submitted the form and it came back as try again later. Form erased. Twice.
Date published: 2024-08-31
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Super finicky So I don't use this a lot, and recently bought a sous vide system and pulled this machine out. My meal was completely thrown off because it would not seal. I put it away and tried again. Same thing. I tried cleaning it. I tried multiple settings. I tried ...and tried...took breaks and tried. No go. WHEN it works, it works. And when it decides not to your way out of luck. Will probably return it to Costco. So bummed.
Date published: 2021-05-29
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Inconsistency Bought this product after an older one stop working. Thought initially that it would be a great replacement. However, this machine is so inconsistence. It will work 5 out of ten times correctly , then it will not. There is this challenge of aligning the bag with the drip tray and even when we think it is aligned correctly, especially with moist items, it is not and will not seal. We feel like we have wasted bags and monies. Then has to be a better solution for this. So disappointed!
Date published: 2022-05-01
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this machine Here is "my" review I hope you find it useful. I've had my machine for about 2 years now. I have used it to save everything from spaghetti sauce and soup stocks to various Meats. It performs flawlessly! When I finally wear this thing out I will immediately buy another. It is without a doubt the best kitchen tool I have invested in since my KitchenAid stand mixer. I absolutely love this machine. I had bagged Chile that I had made last year. I had forgotten completely about it. found it burried in my freezer, as an experiment I heated it up and tried it. The flavors were as good as the day I had made it. And I make some darned good chile. It has become a must-have tool for me. Buy it you won't be disappointed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from love it! Where has this been all my life??! I had so much fun operating it. At first it seemed really complicated but its not . Just go step by step with the instructions and you'll be good. It came with a couple of pre-made bags and and plastic rolls to make customized packaging. I've already recommended it to all my friends.
Date published: 2021-02-28
Rated 2 out of 5 by from Poorly Designed Unless you're sealing food that is entirely flat or hanging off the counter, the downwards angle of the lid makes it impossible to seal your food without wasting an incredible amount of material. Then for some reason the cutting blade is positioned within the seal, so the first time using this I ended up cutting open the bag I just created... Tried using this to replace my GameSaver sealer which had separate issues after a short time and it turned out to be a bad decision.
