Keep food fresher longer with the Seal-a-Meal Manual Vacuum Food Sealer by FoodSaver, a straightforward, easy-to-use sealing system designed to remove air from bags and lock in freshness for the fridge, freezer, and pantry. Whether you're stocking up at the store, prepping weekday meals, or storing seasonal produce, this manual vacuum sealer makes it easy to extend the life of what you buy. The one-press operation is simple: press down firmly with both hands on the lid and hold until the hands-free indicator light illuminates then step back. The unit automatically finishes vacuuming and sealing the bag on its own, creating a secure, airtight closure that protects food from the air that causes freezer burn and spoilage. Compatible bags are microwave-safe and simmer-safe, so you can prep meals ahead and reheat or cook them right in the bag for easy weeknight dinners. Beyond food, the Seal-a-Meal sealer works for travel too, seal liquids and creams for your bag, protect important papers and photos from moisture damage, or create your own refreezable ice packs. Compatible with 8-inch, 11-inch, 1-quart, and 1-gallon Seal-a-Meal and FoodSaver bags and rolls, including Easy Seal and Peel and Liquid Block vacuum seal bags, it fits right into an existing FoodSaver setup. The Seal-a-Meal Manual Vacuum Food Sealer arrives with 4 1-quart vacuum seal bags and a user manual — everything you need to start sealing and storing smarter right out of the box.
