I know there are already a few threads on vacuum sealers, but am still not sold on any particular model...
The Maxkon seem to be recommended for their low cost. Seems to be 2 different Maxkon models though:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Vacuum-Food-Sav...=item3a63d67696 - doesnt seem to have a vacuum port for containers, has fewer buttons than the following Maxkon model, despite pricing being almost the same. Better sucking 85Kpa (if that counts for anything) $58.95
http://www.crazysales.com.au/maxkon-vacuum...-bag-rolls.html - another Maxkon with more control buttons, and support for cannisters. Lower sucking? 50Kpa. $62.95
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Vacuum-Food-Sav...=item1c1602ba5e - another noname unit, but possibly better quality than the above? $99.95
It has been mentioned that a unit that can handle liquids (for other kitchen uses) might be a good idea.
Apparantly some models need a rest every 15 bags or so, as sucking pressure dies down.
More feedback + any other model suggestions invited.
