I wonder if there is a difference with the Eurolab and this Maxkon one.

Seriously though does anyone have any feedback on these because I've now decided I could do with one and this looks like too good a good deal to pass on.

I've looked at the three key threads on vacuum sealers and can't work out whether the Eurolab model is any good.

The 2010 bulk buy thread has a lot of info (I wish that I got in on that deal), however I can't see any comments from someone that actually used the Eurolab device. Forgive me if the answer that I'm looking for was hidden somewhere in the 17 pages.

Does anyone out there have experience with the Eurolab? Is it any good?

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

I'll report back once I receive mine and give it a whirl, promise

I did some googling on this yesterday, and found a couple of positive reviews, if that means anything:
http://www.productreview.com.au/p/eurolab-food-vacuum-sealer.html
http://www.exploroz.com/Forum/Topic/80846/Is_my_Vacuum_Saver_good_enough.aspx

In the 2nd link, one guys says "It is called a "Eurolab Vacuum Sealer" and has worked extremely well for oh three years or so now."

I bought one yesterday, so will also post back my results...not in time to beat the deal's expiry of midnight tonight of course...

Hey,
I picked up a Maxkon several months ago - different version to the one you linked, but roughly similar type & price (eBay RRP ~$50-70).
EDIT: i got this one:
Newly ListedVacuum Food Saver Preservation Heat Sealer + Bag Rolls
Also from Oz Auction - they were easy & quick to deal with
No affiliation, blah, blah. Just happy to promote a product i've found to be good (so far!).

Mine's been great. I have nothing to compare it with, this's the only one i've ever had. However, so far it's been fantastic & i have no complaints. The 2 rolls of plastic to make pockets i got with it are also great - give you good versatility for making the size bag you want. I'm maybe 1/2 way through the first roll now, though i mainly just use it for hops. I've also put some grains under vac seal.

I definitely love having a vac sealer. It just gives good peace-of-mind that my hops are happily sitting in the freezer with almost no O2 exposure. Similar with the grains (just not in the freezer!)


So far, i could definitely recommend the Maxkon, though i have nothing to compare it with.

Hope that helps, dude

Dam that looks good, what sort of feed would you need to run that bad boy? Assume just a 15amp circuit?

 

[pedleyr]

You'd need a 25 amp circuit and plug for that.

Yep divide watts by volts and this will give you your current draw in amps. In this case 5500/240 = 22.9 amps.
Using one of these elements in 80 litres I get around 2-3 degrees increase per minute.
