FoodSaver V4440 Vacuum Sealing System Review

FoodSaver V4440 2-in-1 Vacuum Sealing System

If you hate to throw away food, the FoodSaver V4440 vacuum sealer is one of the kitchen appliances that can help to preserve leftovers and do much more. With this kitchen appliance, you don’t have to slave away at the kitchen because you'll now be able to save time in the kitchen by simply cooking large batches of weekly meals, and then refrigerate them in vacuum-sealed bags.

This FoodSaver vacuuming system boasts of preserving food up to 5 times longer than just leaving food in the refrigerator or freezer. In terms of features, strengths, and shortcomings, the following is what you should expect from the V4440 vacuum sealer.

2-in-1 Food Saver

This innovative appliance helps you do two things at once. You can use it to vacuum food storage bags and tight-seal food storage bags.

It's very effective in both operations, so you don't have to worry about partially vacuumed bags or air leaking into stored food. What makes the 2-in-1 operation useful is the fact that users need not have multiple food saving kitchen appliances. As a result, you not only get to save money, but also make efficient use of space and reduce clutter in your kitchen.

Space Saving Design

The following features really make the FoodSaver V4440 vacuum sealer easy to use:

• Automatic operation

• Built-in handheld sealer storage

• Intuitive design

This FoodSaver appliance operates in full automatic mode. All you have to do is add food to your FoodSaver Heat Seal bag, and insert the open end into the front slot of the machine. The appliance will then vacuum and seal the bag automatically.

With this countertop vacuum sealer, you also receive a handheld retractable sealer. This accessory removes air from all patented FoodSaver zipper bags, canisters, and containers. Simply place the vacuum nozzle over the circle valve of your zipper bag, canister, or container, and press the black button of the handheld vacuum sealer. The device stops suction automatically after removing all air from your storage bag or container.

Apart from automatic vacuuming and sealing, an additional feature that makes this vacuum sealer easy to use is the intuitive design. The vacuum sealer is easy to clean thanks to the removable and dishwasher-safe pull-out tray. It also features a slot on the top side, which makes it easy to store and retrieve the retractable handheld sealer.

Versatile Vacuum Sealer

Few vacuum sealers can be as versatile as the FoodSaver V4440. This appliance is good at food preservation, marinating, and vacuum sealing.

Simply add seasoned food in the FoodSaver square Marinator compartment, attach the vacuum nozzle on the appliance, and press the rapid marinate mode button.

By removing air in storage bags and sealing them tightly, you’ll be able to use this FoodSaver vacuum sealer to secure important documents, seal silverware after polishing, keep travel liquids leak-free, or protect valuable jewelry from tarnishing.
