Best vacuum sealer under 500

[BLACKFINTURKEY]

My food saver finally crapped out. Looking to upgrade to a more commercial style machine. I normally process 4-5 deer a year along with making sausage and probably 100-200lbs of fish a year.

Is there a machine out there that fits in my budget that y’all recommend? My food saver worked good but the sealing function would over heat often and need a 3-5 minute break.

Buy one of the higher end models from cabelas that fits the budget.

I have an LEM now. After fighting with a food saver for a couple of years I have ZERO complaints so far. Whatever you are putting up doesn't have to be bone dry either, It'll make use of the drip tray and seal away.

I bought one from LEM 2 years ago. It's a vac Maxx 500, or Maxx vac 500, can't remember exactly what it's called. Only packaged 3 or 4 deer so far, but seems to be pretty good. I think I found it on Amazon for around $300. It was cheaper on Amazon than going straight through LEM.

I would highly recommend saving a little more and buying a chamber sealer, I put it off for a long time and my biggest regret is not buying one a lot sooner. Thr fast, easy and way cheaper to use after the initial purchase to use.

Vac Master check Webstaurant on line store

[Mossback]

vac Master VP200 (chamber sealer) on webrestaurant store, its legit. Top of your budget at $499

[GalvestonWader]

The Vacmaster Pro380 does a very good job for me. Highly recommend

I have a cabelas commercial vac sucking style and brother has a vac-master chamber sealer. If you have set dimensions on your packaging the chamber sealer is the way to go and will save in bag costs as well. The vacuum style still has its place in large and oversized bags but I’d get a chamber if you can swing it.

I have a Vacmaster Pro 380 and it is a great machine. Takes bags up to 15” wide.

Chris,
get the VMC100P or the VMC12DP
Yeah it is more than you plan to spend. It is well worth every single penny. If you want to see one in person, swing by the butcher room at Chuck's

I have a VMC100P and love it
