can this be used with ziplock vacuum sealer bags?

Yes you can. Just put it over the hole where you would normally put the ziploc hand pump.

Yes, it works with the foodsaver bags. I ordered a roll when I ordered the sealer, and cut the rolls down to smaller sizes when I need them. The only problem I have run into is sometimes I dont get a side sealed correctly when I cut them down, and the sealer will just keep vacuuming and not seal. Now I know to just reseal the side I cut, and once I do that it works perfectly.

The bags are not pre cut so you can make any size bag. We use this vacuum sealer for freezing meats and fish. I am very happy with it. Very easy to use.

Yes, this will work with Foodsaver bags. You will save a lot of money by using FoodVacBags or VacMaster bags, though. They are much less expensive.

Try sealing a mylar bag with a iron, if it seals then it would work with the sealer.

Can't say for all sealers but they do work well with Food Saver. I've had NO problems with these bags sealing even with reuse over & over.

Rival Food Vacuum sealer works with this. amazon Kmart Walmart have them. Make sure to get a model that has external port, for the tube.

These bags are intended for vacuum sealers that use a water chamber (which are common in commercial kitchens). If you have one of those, then this will work fine. However, if you have the type of vacuum sealer that only uses air (these are most common in households) then these bags will not work.

Yes, but they must be the Ziploc VACUUM seal bags, not the regular Ziploc bags that come with pre-attached sealers.

While I haven't tried it myself there is a review http://www.amazon.com/FoodSaver-FSFRSH0055-FreshSaver-Handheld-Vacuum-Sealing/product-reviews/B002NGNBR8?pageNumber=2 that says no it will not work.

Vacuum chamber pouches are mde of a different plastic than the ones for sealers without chambers so I think the answer is no.

Yes. Take caution in shuffling around in the freezer as other frozen items will pop this bag. These work great but I would imagine a vacuum seal would be better for a long term freeze (more than a month).

i used the bags that came with the sealer as well as bags i purchased on ebay. they both work fine as long as they fit the machine. as far as specific brand, i am comfortable purchasing anything that fits.

I don't done see why not. It heats up really hot and has a control on it to adjust the heat. I use it to seal my coffee foil bags and small cellophane bags too.

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

Yes. However, it is durable and will last many years. Also, it is adaptable to many vacuum sealer devices. I use mine with a hand pump. It also works with SealAMeal and Vacu-Seal systems.

Hello! I am assuming that you are referring to the boxes of space bags you can order from the TV or are sold in Sam's Club, Costco or BJ's, right? The Handi-Vac needs doesn't have a large enough sealer mouth to fit the space bag 'plug-in' portal, so--no, you can't. It can be used for the Ziploc vacuum food bags, though, and the FoodSaver plastic boxes/containers for marinating.
