yes, both sides vacuum pack at the same time. it is pretty slick.. i love it. the size of each size approx 4". I can put 4 frozen hamburger patties on each side and seal.

Everyone pretty much gave answers that I would. I personally like to seal first, insert food, seal again and then separate. Love this product!

IF you leave them both connected, they will vacuum seal at the same time. But you can separate them and seal them separately. Each side is about 5 inches wide. I like them a lot.

Most vacuums will work as long as it has a hose attachment. I have found that if you open up the flap and push down you can get most of the air out. I took mine on vacation and that's what I did to repack them.

I think it can be used for vacuum packing because it has a lot of suction. I too have to sometimes hold my small rugs down.

Your question spurred me into trying it out. I set up multiple tools on an outlet strip and each one, when powered up, started the vacuum. Looking at the instructions, they hinted at multiple tools. No problems were noted when running multiple tools. Thanks for the question; it has expanded my use of this great switch.

I would guess that if our attachments ever became loose, I would first see if I could address why....put a rubber band or something around the neck of the loose piece or maybe even duct tape. We haven't tried other brand attachments, but most on our regular vacuums are interchangeable. Sorry I cannot help you more!

I don't see why you couldn't use a dust vacuum as long as you got the right fit. Think I'll try that myself!

I believe you could cut the bags to fit as they seal on all sides. A better alternative is to buy the gizmo that seals caps on mason jars and buy the tiny mason jelly jars. Every time you open a bag you lose some, and then you have to have 3 inches remaining for it to seal.

I haven't used it with a vacuum yet, but with the way the saw is set up, it is almost a necessity. The dust collection bag is worthless. It fills up fast, and if you don't empty it the sawdust dumps right back into the saw (making a mess). I have a flex hose attached, and will be trying out a shop-vac in the near future.

Both sides. There us a space for your hand to reach in to pull both out. Tyre only thing about this particular model is that the lid is flat thin and at least in the one I bought it did not shut flush.

if you have a "shop" vac that has an air out port that you reverse the hose on... and then maybe use some duct tape.... in a pinch... I could make that happen...but not with a regular vacuum..... USE A HAIR DRYER on cool and fill a little at a time if you really stuck!

They don't go one on each side like you're thinking. They both go on either the right side or the left side. You can have them facing inside the rack or facing outside the rack. The width is perfect for me.

Well these are 11/2 or 5.5. Each side since the separate. Probably more like 5" because of the seal and perforation in the middle. As long as we're talking about the bags that's the answer.As far as their new sealer it sucks. Avoid the automatic stuff. The problem is that it decides when to seal and you don't. That means it traps in air all the freaking time!

This is an inherent problem since mine does the same thing. I usually seal it twice. Once with the vacuum suction on then immediately with just the seal on like you are making a bag this works most of the time, but not 100% of the time.

The battery pack fits right back in to the vacuum cleaner compartment without any tools. It should just pop back in. I think the black straps on the sides go down but I will look at my vacuum when I get back from traveling next week and write you how to do it.

I haven't tried, but I doubt the one closest to the vac would ever fill...You are likely to be emptying the other one all the time, while the one near the vac sits there doing very little work. However, you should be able to run them in parallel: split the hose (Y-fitting) before it reaches the Dust Rights. Then rejoin the hoses (another Y-fitting) after the dust rights.

None, but there are attachments that can be purchased separately. I purchased mine from a local vacuum dealer. I took the vacuum in and asked what could be done. Many attachments fit multiple models and brands. Still in love with my vacuum.

No clue. You'd have to look at the fittings on the unit. Either they are 1/4" or they aren't. Technically, you'd only need to pull a vacuum on one but if you could pull from both the high and low sides, it might go faster.
