MAGIC SEAL MS300 Precision Vacuum Sealer Machine, Commercial Double Pump Food Sealer with Built-in Auto Cooling System, Compatible with Mylar, Smooth and Embossed Bags, Extra Wide 8 mm Seal

Uk brought but with us plug

As soon as I plugged it in smoke poured out and it went bang. Returning and not impressed.

After a few weeks of use now, the Magic Sealer is a fantastic bag sealer for small numbers of plastic packaging and we've been impressed on its ability to seal different plastic types (mylar, polystyrene, plastic foil, etc). Great value for the cost. We would recommend to those doing routine, small quantity heat sealing/ packaging.

I have long time experience using nozzle type vacuum sealers. Its the only type I will use. True chamber sealers are too expensive and bulky. Typical counter top sealers require textured bags that get expensive. After many years, my previous nozzle type unit was becoming somewhat inconsistent. I decided time to replace it. So, after considerable research (my wife says I spend too much time researching) I replaced it with this unit. 100% satisfied. Why this unit? First, versatility - it can vacuum seal virtually any type bag - textured, flat chamber, and mylar. Second. it has automatic control and manual control. Third, excellent build quality. Fourth, price was reasonable given it's capabilities. The biggest reason to buy a nozzle vacuum sealer is the ability to utilize flat chamber vacuum bags. When purchased in quantity they can cost a third or more less than the commonly sold textured bags used by most counter top sealers. Having the ability to also use textured bags though makes this model maybe the most versatile sealer you can buy, If I run out of the cheaper flat bags I can go to Target and pick up a small supply of textured bags while I wait for my bulk order of the chamber bags to arrive. Win, win. I like the ability to set both the vacuum time and the seal time. Regarding the seal, the unit has an extra wide sealer element which results in an excellent seal, comparable to that on commercial sealers. No need to do double seals as some units recommend. The unit has a handy built in bag cutter that makes it easy to resize bags without hunting down a pair of scissors. It also has the capability to inflate bags, though I have never used it and am not sure if I will. What could they do to make it better? Two things. First, provide an actual on/off switch. Plugging and unplugging is the only way to power and shut off the unit. Second, a simple cord storage/management solution. The cord needs to be manually looped and tied with a wire tie or something similar for efficient storage. Having a way to wind the cord around a couple of posts on the back would make it a bit less bulky to store on the shelf. All in all 100% two thumbs up. A final thought. The manufacturer refers to using textured bags on this unit as the "chamber mode" to distinguish it from the nozzle mode. This should not be confused with the term "chamber" as applied to true chamber sealers that only use flat, non textured bags. On this unit, it is the nozzle mode that uses the flat chamber bags, same as true chamber vacuum sealers, and the chamber mode uses the textured bags like those used by Food Savers. In any case, this unit can do both modes and they both work really great.

Great product. Seals quickly. Works with smooth mylar bags and the rough seal a meal typ as well. The seal time is adjustable so thick or thin is not an issue. You can even suck liquid through this machine no problem, because it has a catch container that is super simple to hook up. Afterwards, just suck some mild soapy warm water then a simple rinse and you're good. This sealer is GREAT!

What a versatile vacuum sealer this is. Well made with sturdy construction. The most important thing is that I can vacuum seal both types of bags. I now look at bags other purchased products have come in. If they are a little thicker plastic or come in a mylar bag I will use it. This saves me some extra money on bags.

Had slight issue with machine but they helped me resolve the problem with fast and amazing communication
