You fill the bag, zip it shut, stand the sealer on the valve and press the one button, and it draws the air out and switches itself off when the bag is done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo machine to haul out of the cupboard. No roll to measure and cut. No cord to find before the leftovers can go away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy the big sealer stays in the cupboard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou already know vacuum sealing works. The trouble is the countertop machine that does it, which is heavy, wants a strip of counter and a socket, and makes you cut every bag from a roll and seal both ends before the food goes in. So it comes out for a big shop once in a while, and on an ordinary evening the salmon goes into a regular zip bag instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA regular zip bag only gets as much air out as you can squeeze out by hand. Some always stays in, pressed against the food in the corners, and that is the bag you find at the back of the freezer later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one comes out of a drawer and needs nothing else, so it gets used on the small jobs too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOne button, and it stops by itself\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePut the food in and run your fingers along the zip. Pull the white cap off the end of the sealer, set the black nozzle flat on the white valve and press the button. The film pulls in tight around whatever is inside. When the bag is done, it shuts off on its own, so there is nothing to time. The cap goes back on afterwards, so the nozzle stays clean in the drawer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bags come in two sizes, half 1-quart and half 2-quart. The smaller ones suit a handful of herbs or a portion of berries, and the larger ones a couple of salmon fillets or a bag of coffee beans. The sealer is the same in every option, so 10, 20 or 30 is simply how many bags come with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bags are reusable and can go in the freezer, the dishwasher and the microwave. Meat, fish, vegetables, fruit, nuts and coffee all go in the same way, and a sealed bag suits sous vide and meal prep as well as the freezer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharged from USB, kept in a drawer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside is a 1200 mAh rechargeable battery that charges from a 5V USB plug with the cable in the box. Once charged, there is no cord at the counter at all. You seal at the cutting board, beside the fridge or at the pantry shelf, wherever the food happens to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt measures 8 inches tall and 1.8 inches across and weighs 8.3 ounces, which is small enough to lie in a kitchen drawer beside the wooden spoons. That is the real difference from a countertop machine. It lives where you can reach it, so the half pack of chicken gets sealed tonight instead of someday.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eType: Handheld cordless vacuum sealer with valve zip bags\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBag options: 10 Bags, 20 Bags or 30 Bags\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 8 x 1.8 in (20.5 x 4.7 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight: 8.3 oz (237 g)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBattery: 1200 mAh, rechargeable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCharging: 5V USB, with the supplied charging cable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControls: One button; switches off automatically when sealing is done\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNozzle: Black, under a removable white cap\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndicator: Small light below the button\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBags: Clear, reusable zip-top bags, each with one round valve\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBag sizes: Half 1-quart, half 2-quart\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBag care: Freezer, dishwasher and microwave safe\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorks with: Zip bags that have a round valve, like the ones supplied\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWill not seal: Ordinary bags or rolls without a valve\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: ABS and PC plastic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish: White body, chrome-look top and ring, black nozzle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Handheld Vacuum Sealer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x USB Charging Cable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Bag Clip\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10x Vacuum Zip Bags, half 1-quart and half 2-quart (10 Bags option)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e20x Vacuum Zip Bags, half 1-quart and half 2-quart (20 Bags option)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e30x Vacuum Zip Bags, half 1-quart and half 2-quart (30 Bags option)\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Ridgewell Living","offers":[{"title":"10 Bags","offer_id":67852463604008,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 Bags","offer_id":67852463636776,"sku":null,"price":131.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 Bags","offer_id":67852463669544,"sku":null,"price":146.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/9430\/5064\/files\/v01.png?v=1791483587","url":"https:\/\/ridgewellliving.com\/en-au\/products\/handheld-vacuum-sealer-for-food-rechargeable-with-10-20-or-30-zip-bags","provider":"Ridgewell Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
