Canât find seals and the unit broke altogether after a year of moderate use.
Very excited to get this unit. It worked well for awhile then I used it on some moisture containing stuff and got the seals wet and they expanded. This was my error the unit is clearly labeled not to do so. It still kinda worked but you had to push down hard to get to seal. Problem is I could not find replacement seals. I emailed the manufacturer and only got a response after like 6 weeks. In that time the unit stopped working all together. It made it through one alaksa season of fish and game so moderate use. Not at all worth the $300UPDATE: after the 6 week response delay the manufacturer became more responsive and actually sent me a replacement unit and $100 rebate. I cant say how it work yet since I had already purchased a new other brand sealer for our caribou this year. I plan to save the replacement for when my current sealer breaks, sees like nothing lasts more than 1-2 years anymore

Customer support is fantastic!
Well I loved this sealer, it worked really well thru wet or dry sealing including 25 home-raised chickens and lots of garden fruits and vegetables. However, the power switch failed after a little less than one year. But customer support was on board immediately and with zero hassle I had a new sealer in less than two weeks! The one thing I donât like about the sealer is the cutter- it just doesnât work well and constantly falls off. But it seals really well!

This is the one!
So far, I love the power of the vacuum sealer. I chose this particular product because of the 900W motor.A previous vacuum sealer just did not have enough power to get all the air out. There is a gentle button, which is great for those delicate items that you don’t want to be crushed. I sealed a bag of goldfish, and none of them were damaged. There are also modes for dry and liquid, though I have not tried the liquid setting yet. The bag cutter and bag storage are also a nice touch. I have also used it to re-seal store-bought items to keep them fresher longer. It is quite large and takes up a lot of space. I am excited to continue using the vacuum sealer for all my foods and other items and hope it lasts a long time.

DONT WASTE YOUR $$$
They should be ashamed of themselves for even selling this thing.*The cutter does NOT even work*The sealer melts holes thru the bag in some spots and does nothing for the rest.*The heat strip is covered by black tape*They give you an extra foam seal for the door, *Door doesn’t click, (per instructions) talk about low quality at a high price.* Sealer button worked part of the time, had to turn it off/on the get it to work again.Very poor quality all around.This one barely made it out of the box!Waste of time and money!My 10 yr old foodsaver is soooo much better quality!!!As the saying goes;In this case, you don’t “get what you pay for!!”RETURNED!!

Big enough for any size job, works well
The NutriChef PKVSSOSTS is a very good unit. Seals very well and easy to use. We did have a couple of mechanical problems after several months of use but all issues were resolved professionally and in a timely manner! Thanks Caleb for all your help!

Great Customer Support!
We had this unit for approximately one year and the sealing wire malfunctioned. We contacted customer support (PYLE support) and they replaced the unit within a week with a new unit. I could not be more pleased. Great support, communication, and all around customer service. A great company and a great product. Also, the unit is definitely five star in operation. You wonât be disappointed.

Update (Oct10/24): P.O.S. Machine will not power on so can’t use it anymore. Only lasted 8 months. Update (Jun30/24): company offered to replace unit but wanted me to pay $85 s&h. I asked if screw issue had been fixed, ie self tapping screws, they said no. Since unit will have same issue, I declined to spend more money on this. Now, I find out that if I use the pulse vac, the unit will not seal the bag. Plus the heat strip overheats and smells burnt using this mode.Original review: 1) poor instructions. Says to press down on handle until it clicks. There’s nothing there that can click. You have to press down on the handle while you vacuum &/or seal. 2) heat strips have creases and therefore leaves creases in bag seal. 3) cutter is wobbly and doesn’t cut bags. I’ve reverted to my old vacuum sealer to cut bags to size. 4) 3 months I’ve been using and now the screws that secure the fans are falling out. Cannot be tightened, unit is sealed so you can’t take it apart. Very poor quality, not worth the price ($250 in Canada).
