Hello, Yes this item defrosts jarred food that has been frozen. You may have to start the process over a couple of times to get it up to the desired temperature. Fits all size bottles and jars including regular, angled, disposable and wide mouth.

I have not used frozen fruit yet. I would guess that completely thawed and drained fruit would work ok. Good luck!

just put your frozen item on the tray ... if you wish, warm the tray first with warm water

I've never used it for ice, but have frozen broth. It works well with liquids

It will definitely but i think it might tale ages. If worming up the food is 30-40 min. Frozen food will take probably 1.5 hour.

Yes along as the frosting is still moist. It doesn't work well on already dried frosting as in an already frosted ice cream cake. You would have to add new frosting so it would adhere to frosting then put cake back into freezer. When defrosting you will need to open the box so condensation doesn't discolor picture. Good luck! Butter cream frosting works best.

I have not tried but I understand that it will NOT. I bought this unit a little more than a year ago and I use it everyday. It has more than paid for itself and my freezer in that time. We simply don't throw food away. Vac seal and freeze become grab and go. The chamber units allow you to save liquids, seal jars and all kinds of things. I bought a bag of potato chips, sealed them in a jar and opened it 8 months later--they were great. It won't replace canning but it does save money immediately. Hope that helps. One final thought is that vacumaster does make other units which do seal mylar bags. I've sealed mine with an iron, straw and oxygen obsorbers. I have not tried but I understand that it will NOT.

I.think it would work a whole lot better unfrozen. This rack did not work well for me once milk was frozen and was not easy to get out of the rack

I would imagine so if you have the special attachment lids for the jars. HOWEVER, as an avid canner myself, I would NOT recommend sealing jars of food in this fashion. The hot water bath and/or pressure canning systems do more than merely seal the jars. They kill microbes that would otherwise destroy the food and/or make people ill. This is a good unit for saving leftovers, splitting up frozen foods into smaller quantities, and preserving dried foods. I, personally, would not use it for long-term storage of fresh or wet foods.

Yes, I've done it several times and had no problems. It works great to take food from freezer to fridge to use the next day. They also said freezer safe on package.

Actually, I used this item in microwave oven. Not in the freezer. It is a winter :)Sorry, I can not help you.

No the nozzle is too small. As was stated in previous answers, not the best for frozen foods bust great to put snack bags in to maintain freshness. Works well with refrigerated items like cheese and dry items.

Yes. i have frozen apple sauce, chicken and sweet potatoes and peas. I thaw them in the fridge or warm water. Works like a charm! Love this product!

I wouldn't recommend it. The coating seems more like a polyurethane glaze and, unless it was submerged in the stuff, I doubt that the metal is impervious to the cold and moisture in a freezer. I would recommend something made of rubber, coated with an epoxy substance or a freezer-suitable plastic for such use.

I don't know why not. When the ice melts it will stay inside the icepack and not get the food wet.

I don't know the technical details..BUT the inverter defrost manages to defrost without leaving part of the food frozen, and another portion cooked.

I have been using using it with a frost free freezer converted into a kegerator for the last two years without incident. Many others are successfully doing so. If you have a particular concern, you can try contacting the freezer manufacturer. However, it is not a significant concern to me. Theoretically, a manual defrost might allow slightly more consistent or precise temperature regulation by avoiding defrost cycles, but I have yet to meet anyone for whom that is of any actual significance.
