TOP 10 + best vacuum packers for home

Since ancient times, mankind has tried to extend the shelf life of food products using a variety of technologies - cooling, freezing, canning, and so on. However, progress does not stand still, and more and more new ways are emerging not only to keep food usable, but also to improve its palatability. One of the latest techniques in this regard is vacuum. Its meaning is that the products are packed in special dense bags from which all the air is removed. This does not allow the development of various microorganisms, leading to food spoilage. Initially, this technology was available exclusively on an industrial scale, but today there are special devices on sale - vacuum cleaners for home use.

This kitchen equipment is relatively new, therefore, not all housewives know about its existence, moreover, they do not have an idea on the basis of what criteria such products should be selected. To fill this gap, we decided to create a rating of the best vacuum cleaners of the year. In it, we will talk in detail about the useful characteristics of each model. Before moving on to a direct analysis of performance, let's look at the principle of operation of such devices. Perhaps this is where we will begin.

How to choose a vacuum sealer?

A household vacuum sealer is used to seal food in high density plastic bags by pumping air out of them and then sealing them with a special heating element. In addition to bags, the device can pump out air from bottles or special containers. This technology of food storage allows not only to significantly increase the shelf life of products, but also to prevent the mixing of odors. Products so packaged take up much less space.

Among the products currently available on the Russian market for kitchen products, the most common are models in which the pump operates from a standard household electrical network, and its power ranges from 100 to 200 watts. An ordinary device for home use includes a pump, a cover behind which a vacuum chamber is hidden. It is a special compartment that does not let air in. There is also a heating element, consisting of a sealing strip and a Teflon tape, which does not allow packages to stick to the strip during heating. In addition, there is a special control panel.

The equipment case in most cases is made of plastic, stainless steel elements may be present, but such designs will cost much more. When choosing, they pay attention to the case last - it will be nice if it can organically fit into the interior of the kitchen. Dimensions and weight play an important role. First of all, it is worth noting that in most cases the form factor of such products is horizontal, but on sale you can also find models in a vertical version. They need less free space.

A key element of this equipment is the pump, since the pumping speed and its vacuum in a bag or container will directly depend on its performance. As mentioned above, for domestic use, a design equipped with a pump with a power from 100 to 200 watts is quite suitable. An important detail is the vacuum chamber itself. It is closed by a lid with special gaskets, which practically do not allow air from outside.

When packing wet products, liquid can leak out of the bag and get into the chamber itself, so it is advisable to first ask if it is easy to clean this space of various kinds of contaminants. The most ideal solution is the following: the kit comes with a special plastic tray of an extractable type, which after each use can be washed with water and detergents.

Pay attention to the sealing elements. It is better if they are removable - so it will be easier to clean and replace them if necessary. As a heating element, a metal mesh usually acts, which is heated for a short time to high temperature and seals a plastic bag. The most advanced designs are equipped with a special compartment where you can put the packaging film, such models are also equipped with a knife and a clamping mechanism - with their help you can easily cut the required amount of film from the roll, which makes the process easier and faster.

When choosing models for inclusion in our rating of the best vacuum cleaners of this year, we took into account not only these points, in many respects we relied on user reviews, as well as on the ratio of price, quality and model functionality. For each device, we tried to collect the maximum amount of information so that you can get the most complete picture of the device. Let us now move on to consider the performance of each design.
