VacMaster 944300 Variety Pack of Vacuum-Packaging Storage Bags, 60 Count



Works Great
I own a FoodSaver Vacuum machine and these bags work well with it. This variety pack has a nice selection of bags at a reasonable price. I use my sealer for a lot of things, one of which is re-packaging freeze-dried backpacking food. The original packaging usually has quite a bit of air in the pouch and takes up extra room in the pack. By using a one quart vacuum bag, this is solved and the food can be cooked in and eaten out of the bag.

Surprisingly great quality
I've used a few different brands for vacuum sealing. After I used these though, I didn't realize how little quality the others were. I was shocked. I use these for my dried foods, which most of the time have sharp edges. I wasn't sure if they were going to work, because I have had to double bag everything with all the other brands I've used. However, I didn't have to do that with these bags, at least not on all the foods but one.

The only bad experience I've had thus far is that they lost their seal with dried potatoes. I will say, there hasn't been a bag yet that hasn't lost it's seal with dried cubed potatoes. The edges are like knives. However, I sealed the potatoes in two different bags. The Weston and these. This bag actually lost it's seal much later than the rest. I thought the Weston bags would be the best, but these turned out to be.

The added bonus with buying these is that you can get such a large variety pack. I love the different sizes. I hate the...

Better than theirs
These are heavy gage with a double lined area. The variety pack is really nice for all those storage needs.
