Debbie Meyer GeniusVac Bags, 20 Count Quart

This system is the BEST VACUUM PACKAGING FOR FOOD STORAGE!A little expensive but worth its weight in Gold!You do not any counter storage for the devices! I love this!

This is a low cost way to save food from freezer burn. There are other poducts that are very expensive however these bags and the vaccuum are priced so much better and do the same work. I have used these products for years and have never had an issue. The packaging has improved considerably though that doesn't impact on the product effectiveness.

I bought the Handi Vac when these bags were first introduced. I love these bags. They can be used several times before they need to be discarded. Obviously, you need to wash them with hot soapy water each time you re-use them. Just hang them over something to let them dry. They really do keep things fresh for several days.

Maybe I have an older style suction tool. Maybe there is a newer model that works wonders with these newer bags but it took me many long frustrating times to figure out how to get the air suctioned out of these newer styled D.M.Genius bags. I experienced the same problem with 3 different boxes purchased at different times over 3 years. I almost never succeeded getting the air out by laying the entire bag down flat like I used to with the older styled bags. I tried everything- angling the suction tool, pressing lightly, pressing hard, moving the food around etc. What works 75% of the time on the first try is to lift the entire back end of the bag straight up off the table while the suction end stays flat on the table. While pressing the suction tool over the hole- and turned on- I twist the back end straight up, then bend it over- while twisting it inward- toward the suction hole . Its an extreme move that works. I'm amazed how easy it works. When it isn't working I know I have to lift up and twist down in a more extreme movement . The result is that the bag ends up a twisted blob - along with whatever is in- but it works.

Though a little pricey, these bags work great at keeping your foods safe in the freezer. They eliminae freezer burn, so food tastes fresh when thawed. Must have the vacuum sealer for these to work.

The vent hole to remove the air from the bag did not work. I had to pock a small hole in the vent port and then place tape over the home after the air was removed. I would hope this problem is looked into.

Difficult at first to get sealed, eventually able to concur

The bags are great but way too expensive to use for food as you wouldn’t want to reuse bags that originally had raw meat or poultry in it.
