Charlotte, it will seal vinyl! I haven't had a complaint regarding this sealer. Happy hunting!

Yes it works. Although I am using it to seal poly bags, I have used it earlier to seal vinyl bag.

The sealer will work with UP to 12", so anything less than that will work just fine. I make half-size bags for small stuff.

The actual packaging states "rubber seal". On the bottom of the box it states rubber seal and vinyl bag.

Lots of brands will work. Weston bags (available from Amazon & prime eligible) work very well and are pretty inexpensive. Of course, if you mean to ask "plain bags", then no- you need ones designed for a clamp vac sealer. But the Weston are about as good as you'll find.

I don't know. I use either VacuSeal or Weston bags and I have found that they both work great. What brand of bag are you referring to in your question? Is it a bag that is specifically designed for a vacuum sealer?

Your sealer is made to use with reuseable bags with vac port built into bag. So yeas you are correct, these won't work

If your bags are wider, you can cut them down and seal the edge. If they are narrower, they are usable. You'll probably only seal one end, and your bags won't go the full width of the sealer. It'll be fine!

Absolutely, then go on amazon and buy cheap vacuum sealer bags, they are less than half the cost and work just as well.

I assume you are talking about the plastic thingy that helps you seal the bag. Use(slide) the thingy as you close the top of the bag. Hope this helps.

I don't believe so, I purchased the product to keep the rain water from seeping through our 10x10 canopy at craft shows. I believe it is more of a repellant for water than a sealing agent.

These bags are designed for a hand pump only. Will not work with a vaccum Sealer that uses heat to seal the bag.

Yes. The smaller bags have held their seal longer, but I've generally been having the same issue. It doesn't look like the bags have any punctures or tears, so the problem is either in the valve, or the seal -- the seal itself is not very well-designed, as you keep it very flat to prevent any creases in the seal (which make be a source of leaks). There is a "pincher" tool to help straighten out the seal, but it's not really effective -- a zip-top may have been better. All in all, I would not buy this product again.

Yes, I put the roll behind my foodsaver and pull it thru the cutter . It is to large to fit into the unit. I will cut the bags to size and seal 1 end

it can seal anything as long as you use the food saver bags, I once sealed cash to go to mexico wo I wouldn't have a big bulk pack

Hi John, yes, probably. I bought some vacuum rolls by mistake. I used my sous vide bag sealer and it worked fine. I'm guessing that your food saver machine also seals bags by melting the plastic.

Polyethylene for sure of differing thicknesses. The sealer uses heat to seal so I guess any thermoplastic might work. I use the sealer for 1-6mil polyethylene bags. The sealer has an adjustable setting that you vary for different thicknesses--I assume it is a timer circuit. In any event the heat element shuts off after an adjustable period for different thicknesses.

You need to buy a vacuum sealing machine or buy a kit with a sealeing in it. Check the bags you use for BPA considerations. The bags I use are.
