I had an older model for one year before I purchased this one . I have no trouble with it sealing ! Maybe people do not like it because they have to push down the "lock" before it will work ? Heaven's !! Not fully automatic ? LOL ! I love mine as do my nurse's and my aid's !

Either someone doesn't know the methodology of use or they received an improperly functioning unit. I am on my third FoodSaver.......the first two were of the more economical variety and didn't last for the heavy use I put them to.......this one functions they way it was meant to........no problems! Just learn HOW to use it.....read the book for heaven's sake. I have a large garden and put up huge amounts of frozen produce, freeze large amounts of wild game and beef, chicken and fish. Wouldn't be without it.

I don't know why the bad reviews, this is a great unit. If 1 out of six gave a bad review the other 5 gave good ones.

I did not give a bad review to this unit ,however many people may not like the few changes from model to model ,I had the previous professional models and this one is much better so I am happy with this one.

I Bought 4 of them and didn't have any trouble. it is probably defective, and I would probably send it back.

Leave a negative review (if warranted). I guarantee you will hear from them.

We've had 4 units going with no trouble, so 6 should work. Keep in mind it only has 3 speaking channels, though, so each unit won't be able to have its own dedicated channel.

One of the first three posted reviews is a verified purchase, so that one might be credible. The fourth review was a one star review which was the first negative one posted.

No, and with a product that has nearly as many 1 star ratings as 4 star, I would think long and hard about it before buying. This is the link to my review.. http://www.amazon.com/review/RZ0HW849EZE1C/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B00D896N06 good luck!

Same feeling here. I have never seen a product with 93 5-star reviews and only 1 one negative, 1-star. Nothing in-between. Seriously??? Plus a number of people have mainly Ozeri reviews. Plus all these reviews are extremely frequent: one every few days. What are the chances???

@Derek Always look at the reviews. Hopefully more people will mention specifics. Look at the reviews for it for the last 6 months on this and other sites to see. Look at what they say so you know what issues some people may be having.

yes, I've asked twice and haven't gotten an answer. I've returned a recall unit. If I could get a clean one, I'd buy it. I think it's a very nice product. But, I for one, am not going to pay retail for a "fixer-upper". At a "refurb" price, I'd think about it, because units below ser 3114200 are exactly that - refurbs waiting to be refurbed. I'm going to wait another week to see if I get an answer, and then just get something else. Sigh.

I checked a few of the reviewers posting histories. While the ones who have only a single record of reviewing any product might be cause for suspicion, there are many other reviewers whose records appear to be legitimate. I'd suggest that this is not a case of a manufactured conspiracy, but simply a case of poor manufacturing quality control. The buyers who got good units were very satisfied. The buyers who got less-than-good-units were not very satisfied. BTW, this product is currently on sale at a daily-deal website for $69.99 delivered. Your review (and others complaining of poor quality) convinced me to purchase this product ONLY if covered by a "satisfaction guaranteed" warranty.

I'm wondering the same thing. Wish someone could answer this, I'm really considering purchasing this unit.

Who cares. If it works then you can add a review. If it doesn't, you can get your money back. Besides, no one is trying to skew the #1/2/3/4/5 seller ratings, and no one is trying to take advantage, especially for 17.95

I sent mine back because it wouldn't work. Defective unit. The company who makes them were very Bad And rude, to deal with! Amazon was great. Be careful if you buy one? I would buy a different brand if I were you. Bad company!

Write a very bad review. They know by now what fits. They will take care of it and ask you to delete the comments.

Well, it has a number of 1* & 2* and a bunch of 5* (five stars rating). Is their product control so poor that some are good and some are bad?

I've notice that, too. Looking at buying a receiver and all of them seem to have this rate. Is it perhaps sample size? Most of them seem to have less than 100. Sometimes I wonder if the negative stories are real. But in one case I trust the person and the review is real.
