With wholesale stores where you can buy food in bulk, we are constantly looking for ways to preserve the food until we are able to eat it. While freezing the food is almost always a good option, you do have to worry about eating it quickly, so it doesn’t end up freezer burnt. However, sealing it into an air-tight bag will likely keep the freezer burn at bay without harming your food.

A vacuum sealer is your all-in-one machine to suction the air from food bags and seal them tightly to prevent leakage or deep freezes. Good vacuum sealers are a decent size to save counter space, freezer safe, provide large enough bags to hold all your food, seal quickly and reliably, and have multiple options and settings for sealing. All of the favorites on our list have all these qualities and more.

If you run into problems with your sealer closing your bags tightly, one adjustment you may be able to make based on the sealer is to increase the heat to melt the plastic better. If you cannot change the heat on your sealer, cleaning it off when it is cool may help. A fail-safe is to buy some thinner bags to make it easier on the sealer.

If you are trying to vacuum seal something that is soft (such as baked goods), a full seal may crush the food and make it misshapen. If that is something that matters to you, a partial seal is necessary to keep your food from being crushed if it is too soft.

Since it is frowned upon to take food to the store with you and seal them with vacuum sealers, it can be hard to know which ones are right for you. Here are some tips we came up with to help you find your ideal vacuum sealer:
