Questions about Oliso PRO Smart Vacuum Sealer - Best Food Saver - Vacuum Seals Dry Foods and Liquids - Great for Food Preservation and for Use With Your Sous Vide - Chrome
Q:
I would be using this unit to sous vide food. Can I use the bags multiple times for sous vide (vs. just vacuum sealing)?
Answer: I have not tried sous vide cooking using these bags, however the manufacturer recommends not reusing the bags if you use them for cooking or when storing meats. There are a number of bag options on Amazon recommended for sous vide cooking that would probably work better.
Answer: If you store with the bags you can generally reuse them.
Answer: Yes, the bags are designed to be used multiple times.
Q:
Do you have to use Oliso bags, or can you use other brands of bags?
Answer: Yes you use oliso brand. Love them and the machine.
Q:
Is there some secret to getting the drip tray off? I've tried everything to try and get it off to clean/empty it, but it won't budge.Help?
Answer: Yeah, that's one of the quirky things about this unit--I returned it. However, the drip tray does come out if you grip the end and pull straight out, no twisting.
Answer: Usually just firmly gripping the slot and pulling will remove the tray unless there was some sticky fluid
Answer: I also found it difficult but a little more "elbow grease" and it came out
Q:
What is the largest size bag it can handle?
Answer: The largest Oliso bag available to purchase is a 2 gallon (Jumbo) size bag.
Answer: 2 gallon bags which are huge is the largest I have used.
Q:
How does the machine suck the air out of the bag? I don't see the outlet.
Answer:
Answer:
Q:
What does the color "outdoor" mean? Is it the dark gray from the photo?
Answer: The outdoor version is silver however outdoor means that it comes in a carrying case along with the bags and car charging cable. Ideal for outdoor situations such as camping , fishing or hunting.
Answer: Who gives a giant diddlie squat? Color shmular....This unit is highly overrated. Half of the food i've vacuum packed have lost their vacuum
Q:
I make my own sausage what setting and bag you would use for frezzing?
Q:
How do you seal liquids - i have a hard time with the food saver with liquids/or food that has any type of liquid - the liquid goes over the seal
Answer: I have never tried to seal liquids. I wouldn't think this is designed for liquids since the bag has to be horizontal to seal. I bought it to use for meats to prevent freezer burn. Never tried it with dry ingredients, but I'm sure they would work fine.
Answer: Hello! you seal the liquids as you would dry goods. Our proprietary bags can be sealed before you vacuum seal preventing any spills or leaks. Please let us know if that answers your question.
Answer: I freeze the liquids and then seal them
Answer: I take a wire document rack and potato chip clips to freeze the bags up right before sealing.
Q:
Can the vacuum sealer bags be used for freezing fruits and vegetables?
Answer: Freeze liquids and soft foods first. Use a bread or potato chip clip to keep the bag closed. prop them upright. Leave until frozen then seal. no mess and fuss. The other key is get a plastic 12/16 oz cup from fast food place like BK or wendy's. Cut the bottom out and you have a flexible funnel, so you don't get food at the top of the bag where you seal the bag.
Answer: Yes! There is even a "Stop" button on the vacuum sealer that can be used to prevent softer fruits and vegetables from getting smashed.
Answer: When I used the bags to seal baby carrots and broccoli, the vegetables got mushy & smelly, but they may have been too moist when I did the sealing.
Q:
Can this be used with Ziploc or similar press and seal bags?
Answer: I doubt it. The bags used with this sealer are much heavier than Ziplocs or similar bags and probably made of a different material. It uses a heat sealing process which I don't think would work properly with Ziplocs.
Answer: No it cannot, the bags would melt in the sealer and damage the unit and I believe void your warranty.
Q:
Why is the Chrome model $600 while the other colors are only $149?
Q:
What is the voltage on this gadget? Can it b e used in London?
Q:
What is difference between this model and the PRO-1000?
Answer: The model shown is the pro-1000.
Q:
Can the bags be used for sous vide cooking? Are they heat resistant?
Answer: Yes absolutely ! We are also offering a $100 rebate on a Oliso Smart Hub Sous Vide when you purchase a Oliso Vacuum Sealer
Answer: Yes, sous vide is specifically why we bought it. Works great!
Answer: Yes, they can. I have used them for that purpose and they perform very well.
Q:
will this unit vac pack liquids, like soup? Thanks
Answer: It has a 'moist food' setting which allows you to seal marinated meats and such so I don't see why you couldn't do soup. The seal is lighter on moist mode though. Regardless I really love this machine.
Answer: The VS95A can do liquids, see Kenji Lopez comments on The Food Lab, s that si wher I got the original referral.
Answer: HI, yes it will, really an amazing unit for it's size.
Q:
I have a dehydrator and a large garden in summer. I like to dehydrate veges, herbs, etc. can I keep them fresher by vacuum sealing the jars?
Answer: This does allow you to vacuum seal jars, but you have to buy the lids. They are special lids made for wide mouth jars and a special attachment that allows you to use the sealers flexihose. I cannot say if it will keep them fresh longer or not.
Answer: Hi Patricia, Yes vacuum sealing is a much better option to ensure your vegetable and herbs stay fresh. You would also not have to vacuum seal the entire jar. You can just drop your veggies and herbs directly into the bag.
Answer: Not sure about jars, I know I can seal wine bottles , you may want to send the company an email, they are very responsive.
Answer: Yes, dehydrated foods are perfect to seal and have an extended shelf life.
Answer: Does this one come with any attachments?
Q:
What are the bags made of?
Answer: A type of plastic THICKER than any ziplock bag used for food storage, or milar bags used to protect comics.
Answer: They are multi-layers of nylon and polyethylene. The zipper is made of polyethylene. They are US FDA-approved for food storage and food heating and are BPA-free.
Q:
Will this work with standard vacuum seal bags? I have about 100 feet of vacuum roll already.
Answer: No. It has a single point that it punctures the bag, suctions out the air then seals the hole that it made.
Q:
I’d like to seal pre cooked meals and bring to work. Can I use food saver bags? I’d like to use the single serve steam bags.
Answer: Yes. You can
Q:
is this a dual voltage machine?
Answer: No it's only110
Q:
Does this seal other types of bags (eg. mylar bags or other plastic vacuum sealer bags) or can it only be used with the Oliso bags?
Answer: The Oliso sealer punctures a small hole in the bag through which it vacuum seals the product. Because of this unique and easy way of sealing, only Oliso bags can be used with this sealer. Oliso bags are designed to be reusable and dishwasher safe. This vacuum sealer kit includes bags of different sizes to get you started.
Q:
Are there also cheaper disposable bags that'll work with this?
Q:
How many inches of mercury of a vacuum does this create in mason jars?
Q:
Can gneric bags be used bought like foodsaver or are they strictly specific?
Answer: This vacuum sealer works by puncturing a small area and vacuuming through that area prior to resealing it. Due to this method, the Oliso vacuum sealer cannot work with rolls of film or bags that require a line sealer.
Answer: i returned it because apparently you cant use generic bags and i dont live in the us...
Answer: No
Q:
Where are I purchase extra Vacuum Bags for this system?
Answer: You can purchase them on Amazon or at other stores online. Here are a few links to different size bags: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000YUGLFO http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0084EHUL6 http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000YUJJZS
Q:
what is the voltage of the item?
Answer: The voltage is 120v standard for appliances used in the USA
Answer: it was the sealing mechanism which causes a circular imprint on the sealing bags. Also, there are conflicting instructions in regards to using the "liquid" setting. For example the manufacturer website says one action to take, and the instruction booklet says another. At any rate, I am glad amazon refunded me, and am looking forward to purchasing a food saver vacuum system.
Answer: In addition to my previous post here is what happened. After i inserted the bag for sealing, the machine would indicate it was ready, say it was done, but a seal was not achieved. I hope this answers your question.
Answer: great love my little food sealer small and handy
Q:
I need to be able to seal several things at one setting. How long is the wait inbetween sealing?
Answer: Usually takes under 30 seconds to do actual vacuum and seal, wait time between sealings is negligible (2-3 seconds)
Answer: With the Oliso there's not much wait. Less than 30 secs in between sealings. The machine doesn't need much time to reset.
Answer: Hi John ! Each seal takes about 10-15 seconds. Hope that helps
Answer: approximately 30 seconds...but I'd recommend the FOOD SAVER Vacuum Sealer over this product. See their website www.foodsaver.com and the many videos on youtube.
Q:
Can you use Food Vac bags or any other bags or do they have to be this brand?
Answer: This vacuum sealer works by puncturing a small area and vacuuming through that area prior to resealing it. Due to this method, the Oliso vacuum sealer cannot work with rolls of film or bags that require a line sealer.
Answer: It has to be their brand of bags, but they are resealable & reusable for multiple times each. I was discouraged by this at first until I figured out how much you can actually save by having this feature. Hope this helps?
Answer: The bags need to be Oliso brand but they are very durable and easily reused. I love this machine.
Answer: I'm not sure, I ordered oliso bags when I ordered the sealer. I will say that it works great.
Q:
Can an attachment to seal jars be used with this product?
Answer: Yes - the Flexi Tube can be attached to jar sealing accessories.
Answer: They do have an attachment to seal wide mouth mason jars that can be purchased separately.
Q:
The amazon page for jumbo vac-snap bags says reuse is not recommended for raw fish, meat and poultry. is that true for all oliso bags or just jumbos?
Q:
I'm planning to take this overseas, will it work with 220V?
Answer: Yes, you will just need to get an adapter for the plug.
Answer: Yes if you have an adapter and converter.
Q:
What other bags can you use for this machine?
Answer: I only use the Oliso vacuum seal bags in assorted sizes
Q:
Where is this made?
Answer: Hi Charles, its designed and engineered in San Francisco and manufactured in China. Thank you!
Answer: On bottom of product says "made in China"
Answer: California
Q:
what is the difference between the oliso pro vs95a and oliso pro vs97a?
Q:
How easy is it to clean these resuable bags? With solids? With liquids?
Answer: I haven't used the bags enough to give you a really good answer. But it seems relatively simple although it's a pain to dry the bags. I turn them over on bottles for them to dry inside. But I will say that I like the unit itself. It is small and not cumbersome to handle. I also have a Food Saver, I do like it but it's big and bulky. I've already dropped and broken my first one. For big jobs I use the food saver and for every day use I use the Oliso. Hope this helps.
Answer: Great question. I returned the unit and replaced w/food saver brand for this very reason. Cleaning and sanitizing is a chore. And if you are using for souis vide poses food safety concerns--as you can get bacteria growth when using a re useable. Also, I noticed replacement bags are expensive and hard to find
Answer: We tried the foodsavers and other brands and just weren't happy. This one is much better with getting the moisture out of the bag and we love the re-usable bags. Hope this helps!
Q:
Can this be used with Mylar bags for long term food storage? If not, what machine can? Thanks!
Answer: Hi Annie! Yes it will work on Mylar bags as long as the bag has a nylon layer (which most do).
Q:
Can you use generic vacuum bags with this sealer or do you have to use their proprietary bags?
Answer: Hello! The Oliso sealer needs to be used with the Oliso bags as they are proprietary and are reusable. This feature allows you to seal, open and then reseal the bags as needed.
Product reviews of Oliso PRO Smart Vacuum Sealer - Best Food Saver - Vacuum Seals Dry Foods and Liquids - Great for Food Preservation and for Use With Your Sous Vide - Chrome
dead bear : Easy and fast
I just used the Oliso I received for Christmas and it was great!!! Worked easy and fast.
Amazon Customer : Useless for Sous Viding
Bought this based on Serious Eats recommdation which is normally reliable. Opted to pay more thinking the resealable bags would be worth it.
I’ve been struggling with this machine for the last 2 years and finally decided to replace it with a traditional food saver after using one at my friends house and remember how much better they work.
Works fine for dry food like cheese. Useless for anything with moisture. Chicken or steak works well if pat completey try. The bags are one time use if used in sous vide, they don’t really seal properly again if you try and reuse them.
Overall: I’ld recommend the bags is you want to use the water displacement method they are heavy duty and nice. Wouldn’t recommend this to anyone.

Kaitlyn Marie : Works, but noisy
The Vacuum Sealer is a great way to preserve food and to keep it fresher or edible longer.
When I first opened the vacuum sealer box, I didn't look too closely at the box. I didn't see what was all in the kit. Once I had all the parts laying out, I was so confused what the 3 wine and olive oil freshkeepers were. None of the instructions had anything related to them on it. I couldn't figure out if they were for the bags or what. After a few minutes, I was finally able to figure out what they were for.
The vacuum sealer itself was smaller than I expected. The compact size makes it easier to store when not in use.
The bags with that used the flexi tube were easy to figure out. One end goes on the port on the bag and the other goes onto the vacuum sealer. It took a few twist to finally get the hose pushed on far enough on the vacuum sealer to have it say it was ready for use that way.
The first time I tried the vacuum sealer, it startled me with how loud it was. It's a very annoying sound, but it's over within a minute or two. I could tolerate the sound, but it frightened my pets.
The flexi tube way was able to suck out the majority, if not all, the air in the bag with or without food in it. They food would be suctioned very tight within the bag without air touching the food. It could last a few days in the fridge and keep the same level of suction. No air would get back into the bag unless one opened the bag. It did take a bit of effort to get the bag open. The seal of the bag is very good to keep air from getting back in.
The bags using the heat sealing way startled me as well. I thought I had to put the bag further into the machine than I actually did. The automatic start had started sealing the bag before I expected it, so the noise and the movement on the bag got me. I'm used to that now. The heat sealing way allows you to use the bag at least 10 or more times. The heat seal helps pull the air out and seal up the hole the air got out of. When using this method, you can select if you have dry or moist food to provide the best results possible.
You can use one or both ways to vacuum seal your food with those bags. This vacuum seal allows you to keep the size of your bag without having to cut or break it down. The size of the bags are perfect for most types of food or serving sizes. It's perfect to seal up left overs.
Pros:
- Provides an air tight seal
- Keeps food fresher and more edible longer
- Works quickly
- Good picture instructions on how to use the bags
Cons:
- Very noisy
- Lack of instructions for the olive-oil/wine part
I received this product through a promotion in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.

Amazon Customer : Multiple Use Bags, NIGHTMARE
Great concept, awful execution. While it sounds nice to be able to use the bags multiple times. The issue is that after you sous vide your meat you are left with a residue and when you go to clean the residue off the inside of the bag, you will end up breaking the seal somewhere. You might get 2 uses on 4 on another and 1 on a few. Cleaning the bag is more time consuming and annoying than just buying a new bag. The function of sealing works, but it's a nightmare other than that. I'm just bummed I gave it to many chances to prove me wrong and now I'm outside my window to return.
Amazon Customer : Three Stars
Had some problems getting a good seal
bigjohn66 : Oliso not so.....
Had high hopes for this product. Non of the pantry bags hold vacuum and 50% of the reusable ones are not holding vacuum either. Think I'll go back to foodsaver...
Downwiththeho : Not perfect but I'll keep it
Agonized over purchasing the Oliso, especially the mixed bag of reviews here on Amazon. My experience is that about half the time the seal on the bag will fail although I suspect that might have to do with inconsistent quality on the bags rather than a fundamental defect in the design of the system. (I think the starter bags that ship with the unit may be of weaker quality.) That said, the reusability of the bags is appealing as is the smaller footprint as compared to the FoodSaver. Bonus: I can confirm that this device works with the FoodSave accessories including the wine stopper as well as the mason jar sealer. If you're aiming to purchase try and find the version that includes lots of bags. (I found it at another online retailer.)
KIMBERLY A WEATHERBEE : ... than I expected it to be and I’m in love! Always wanted one of these things
This vacuum sealer is so much smaller than I expected it to be and I’m in love! Always wanted one of these things. I like the fact that the bags are reusable, but only to a point before needing to be replaced, and they are a bit pricey, which makes me want to conserve uses rather than vacuum seal everything (and trust me, I thought about it), which is a bit of a disappointment. They are dishwasher safe though, so, awesome! The thing is very similar to vacuum clothes and blanket storage bags, with their ability to be closed first and then vacuumed out, which is incredibly convenient, especially with liquids. Very noisy, though, which startled the dog and brought in the curious children. I received this product at a reduced price in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

nintendomo : Best vacuum sealer ever!!!!!!!!
I love my Oliso!!! It is SO small that it fits in a drawer or on a cabinet shelf. Just because it is small doesn't mean it isn't powerful! I have had 2 food savers and this is just as efficient. I love the fact that the bags can be reused several times (how many times depends on bag-size). Another nifty feature is that there is a "moist" setting so that you can vacuum pack foods with a little moisture like a raw steak. I also love that it comes with ready-made bags. I am giving these to my kids!
Mays : Five Stars
Much easier to use than other sealers,compact size.
Ddeitt : I LOVE my Oliso Vacuum Sealer!
My husband bought this for me for my birthday to go with my dehydrator. Having never used a vacuum sealer before, this one is so easy! Anyone can use it, self-explanatory, and quick. I love the way it seals only a small circle so you're able to reuse your bags several times. I love the sample bags it comes with too! They are super durable, thick, really nice, they're reusable, and have numbers already on there so you can tell how many times you've reused them! I am so impressed with this product! I can't wait to vacuum seal more items...
Amazon Customer : It's super simple to use and doesn't take a lot of ...
I originally bought this for my sous vide but am now using it to store bulk dry goods. After a lot of research, I settled on this sealer based on the recommendation of Serious Eats blog. It's super simple to use and doesn't take a lot of counter space. Works as advertised.
ziggy : Great little vacuum sealer
I wanted a smaller vacuum sealer because I don't have a lot of counter space. Speedy delivery and I used it right out of the box with great success. It is so easy to use, as everyone noted the bags are very strong. The unit provides a very strong vacuum seal. I had frozen butter and also some meat I wanted to seal and both came out great. I was concerned about how loud it would be after watching a few videos, but it is certainly not as loud as it appears in the videos. It is not too loud at all. It stops when the seal is complete and the job is complete. I am very happy with this purchase. I like that I don't have to fiddle with cutting bags. I used the quart and gallon bag and both performed as specified.
Doggie : This unit isn’t perfect but it works a lot better than some of ...
This unit isn’t perfect but it works a lot better than some of the types that seal on whole side of the bag. The only problem that I have is that the bags have an upper and a lower side when you seal them. I forget that sometimes when I try seal and it fails. Once the bag is properly sealed I have not had a leaker. I use it for sous vide puposes.
Paul T : One Star
Have tried it and am disappointed with the unit
Will be returning it
Will be returning it
Amazon Customer : Oliso Pro
Was very happy with this guy. I have never owned a vacuum sealer before but this guy was very easy to use. The thing I like the most (other than its performance) is just how small it is. I use it for sous vide and it works great and am very glad I got this over a food saver.
Mac N Cheese : Does what it promises
We have only used this sealer for a few weeks, but it is great. We mostly have been using it for sous vide, and I was worried about vacuum sealing foods with juices, or oils, but it has a moist setting and seems to work perfectly. We have not had any issues yet with cleaning out the re-usable bags, like some of the other reviewers have noted. We have used them to cook steak, store chicken wings, and cook bacon, and so far cleaning has been what we would expect it to be. Really like that this came with wine stoppers and a tube to vacuum seal wine bottles, which we have used a few times also.
SL : Easy to Use and Effective
We recently received this product as a gift and think it is great. My wife and I often buy proteins in bulk, but since we're cooking only for two, that means lots of uncooked leftovers. This vacuum sealer is easy to use and keeps our uncooked proteins fresh until we're ready to use them, which saves both food and money. And as a fisherman, I look forward to using the vacuum sealer to keep my catch fresh.
John : very easy to use
Works as intended, very easy to use. Re-sealable bags clean easily in dishwasher.
JCC : Love It!
Love this machine. It is compact so doesn't take up much space on the counter (in fact I think it will fit in a drawer with lots of space left over) and it seems to do everything my Foodsaver vacuum sealer does ( which is almost 3 times the size of the Oliso). Haven't had this for long so the only unknown for me is if it holds the seal long term the way the Foodsaver does. I'll have to get back to you on that:). But so far I love it!
BAJ : LOVE IT
just got my Oliso PRO smart vacuum sealer...and I LOVE IT!!!! makes sealing & freezing meat a snap, no more freezer burn & ruined food! Great for preserving bread & fruits/vegetables too...will definitely recommed this product. I had never used this product before but have been successful from the first attempt, instructions with the unit are very good, unit is small and doesnt take up much space which is good because I will probably be leaving it out on counter and using it often.
chris : The Oliso Pro is a great vacuum sealer
The Oliso Pro is a great vacuum sealer. Have not had any issues with it and have used an almost daily basis for 1+ years. The big problem that I've found and continue to experience are the bags. Though the bags say they are reusable up to ten times, I would say on average that I'm able to get a maximum usage of 3-4 times. If any moisture, food residue gets lodged in the zip area, the bags don't seal. Also, if you do choose to put the bags in the washer, the washer tends to break down the bag and they can't be sealed.
For that reason, I give two stars. 5 for the unit and 1 for the bags. Stay away, unless you don't mind spending the money on the bags

Jerry : but it works great. Because of the reusable nature of the bags ...
I purchased this vacuum sealer to use with my new sous vide cooker. I can't compare it to other sealers, but it works great. Because of the reusable nature of the bags for both sous vide cooking, freezer storage, and dry pantry storage (super easy and convenient), I believe that the operating costs of this unit will be in line with other brands/types of sealers. As a bonus, it came with 3 wine bottle stoppers that can be used with the tube attachment! I will update this review in a couple of months after I've had to a chance to use it and gauge its cost-effectiveness, but after my first couple of uses, I am very pleased with this unit.
UPDATE: I'm still getting used to the device, but I have a couple of thoughts already. I did not purchase it for the reusable pantry bags, but I think that I will be using these a lot to keep things like pistachios and cheerios from going stale. Second, the other Oliso bags have places for 10 reuses, but I believe that if you are careful, you can get many more uses out of the bags. One caveat is that you need to clean the bags, which isn't too difficult, but you do want to do carefully to remove any food contamination. Having said that, being one who doesn't like to waste, the reusable nature of the bags is environmentally friendly compared to some of the other single use vacuum sealers.

Christian : Five Stars
Use it all the time for fishing and its awesome .
bigjohn66 : Oliso not so.....
Had high hopes for this product. Non of the pantry bags hold vacuum and 50% of the reusable ones are not holding vacuum either. Think I'll go back to foodsaver...
M. Chen : Easy to use, but not the greatest sealer.
Got this to sous vide some meat based off of Serious Eats recommendation. Very easy to use, and the bags seem pretty high quality.
Was able to sous vide some chicken and am currently doing a rack of ribs. So far, so good!
Update 1/5/17: Seal is just okay. Good concept to use re-sealable bags but sometimes have to seal multiple times in order to get most of the air removed. Would recommend getting most of the air out by manually squeezing air out first and then using the sealer.

Dmitry Nikiforov : Misleading lack of details.
This might be useful for some. However, it can be only used with its own "ziplock" style bags. It can't be used with the regular, heat-sealed, "cut to size" bags.
Queen D : Very Disappointed
I had primarily purchased this item because of the mason jar lid accessory (as shown in their video). Now I've found that the lid is not an available accessory. While I've used the bags, I'm not impressed. There doesn't seem to be a small freezer bag, I usually freeze by individual portions, and the medium/quart size is too large for my needs. Also, when sealing a bag with liquid, it doesn't apear to remove any air and begins to seal almost immediately. When sealing a non-liquid bag, it doesn't remove as much air as other sealers.
Overall, I'm extremely disappointed in an item I was very excited about.

Amazon Customer : Once sealed stays sealed
This machine is ???? doesn't take up a lot on counter very easy to use ,It seals the bags and you can see how many times it had been used before ???? and these bags stayed sealed not like the other sealers they would unsealed
Sasha : Will save you money.
This works! It does just what I wanted it for. Easier than others I had.
bluesky7 : Happy I finally got this
I fought getting one of these for years - did not want one more gadget in my kitchen and had memories of my husbands ancient ugly green "seal a meal" -? Happy I finally gave in - simple and easy to use - small space needed to store - and everyone tells me my food will retain much better quality.
I also LOVE the seal caps - for any wine which might be leftover - not often! Really works better than any other vacuum wine gadget out there.

ziggy : Great little vacuum sealer
I wanted a smaller vacuum sealer because I don't have a lot of counter space. Speedy delivery and I used it right out of the box with great success. It is so easy to use, as everyone noted the bags are very strong. The unit provides a very strong vacuum seal. I had frozen butter and also some meat I wanted to seal and both came out great. I was concerned about how loud it would be after watching a few videos, but it is certainly not as loud as it appears in the videos. It is not too loud at all. It stops when the seal is complete and the job is complete. I am very happy with this purchase. I like that I don't have to fiddle with cutting bags. I used the quart and gallon bag and both performed as specified.
Carlton Densmore : Like this a lot but don't put seafood in with ...
Like this a lot but don't put seafood in with any liquid. The liquid gets down in the machine and stinks for weeks
Chelsea : fantastic.
Works as advertised, fantastic.
Downwiththeho : Not perfect but I'll keep it
Agonized over purchasing the Oliso, especially the mixed bag of reviews here on Amazon. My experience is that about half the time the seal on the bag will fail although I suspect that might have to do with inconsistent quality on the bags rather than a fundamental defect in the design of the system. (I think the starter bags that ship with the unit may be of weaker quality.) That said, the reusability of the bags is appealing as is the smaller footprint as compared to the FoodSaver. Bonus: I can confirm that this device works with the FoodSave accessories including the wine stopper as well as the mason jar sealer. If you're aiming to purchase try and find the version that includes lots of bags. (I found it at another online retailer.)
Kaitlyn Marie : Works, but noisy
The Vacuum Sealer is a great way to preserve food and to keep it fresher or edible longer.
When I first opened the vacuum sealer box, I didn't look too closely at the box. I didn't see what was all in the kit. Once I had all the parts laying out, I was so confused what the 3 wine and olive oil freshkeepers were. None of the instructions had anything related to them on it. I couldn't figure out if they were for the bags or what. After a few minutes, I was finally able to figure out what they were for.
The vacuum sealer itself was smaller than I expected. The compact size makes it easier to store when not in use.
The bags with that used the flexi tube were easy to figure out. One end goes on the port on the bag and the other goes onto the vacuum sealer. It took a few twist to finally get the hose pushed on far enough on the vacuum sealer to have it say it was ready for use that way.
The first time I tried the vacuum sealer, it startled me with how loud it was. It's a very annoying sound, but it's over within a minute or two. I could tolerate the sound, but it frightened my pets.
The flexi tube way was able to suck out the majority, if not all, the air in the bag with or without food in it. They food would be suctioned very tight within the bag without air touching the food. It could last a few days in the fridge and keep the same level of suction. No air would get back into the bag unless one opened the bag. It did take a bit of effort to get the bag open. The seal of the bag is very good to keep air from getting back in.
The bags using the heat sealing way startled me as well. I thought I had to put the bag further into the machine than I actually did. The automatic start had started sealing the bag before I expected it, so the noise and the movement on the bag got me. I'm used to that now. The heat sealing way allows you to use the bag at least 10 or more times. The heat seal helps pull the air out and seal up the hole the air got out of. When using this method, you can select if you have dry or moist food to provide the best results possible.
You can use one or both ways to vacuum seal your food with those bags. This vacuum seal allows you to keep the size of your bag without having to cut or break it down. The size of the bags are perfect for most types of food or serving sizes. It's perfect to seal up left overs.
Pros:
- Provides an air tight seal
- Keeps food fresher and more edible longer
- Works quickly
- Good picture instructions on how to use the bags
Cons:
- Very noisy
- Lack of instructions for the olive-oil/wine part

SabrinaDBR : Before we bought the Smart Vacuum Sealer
My husband loves to fish, and we often end up freezing some of his catch. Before we bought the Smart Vacuum Sealer, freezer burn would sometimes mean his hard earned catch was spoiled. Though we've only had it a few days, we've used it to seal up some fish and I know it will last much much longer in the freezer! I'm glad we finally made this purchase!
Jace Proctor : Bags are very problematic.
I really wanted to like the concept behind the Oliso. I try to be as environmentally conscious as possible, and I was always hesitant about using a vacuum sealer because of the disposable bags (we don't use plastic bags at home). This seemed to be a perfect compromise - you can reuse the bags a bunch of times, and then once all the seals are "used," you can re-use it as a container or just toss it.
Well... not so much.
The big problem is that when the bag is sealed, both sides of the bag are fused together. It doesn't just punch a hole in one side. So as the bag is used and the seals are sealed, the useful space inside the bag becomes narrower and narrower. You have about a 2" strip on either side of the bag that's fused shut and useless. On the biggest size bags this isn't a huge problem, but on the smaller bags it renders them pretty much useless after only a few seals.
Not only that, but because the seals fuse both sides of the bag together in little 1" seals all along the sides of the bag, the insides of the bag become riddled with little pockets that are impossible to clean. If you put wet contents into a bag that has a few seals in it already, you'll never get that stuff fully out from around and behind the seals. The bag will never be clean again. This introduces all kinds of food safety concerns and ultimately renders the bags disposable long before reaching their intended usefulness.
I was hugely disappointed when I realized this. It pretty much ruins the whole idea of a re-usable, re-sealable plastic bag.
The other big problem is that a full bag can't be sealed. Because you have to slide both sides of the bag into the unit, you can't fill that half of the bag. You can see this in all of the pictures of the unit in action; the bag is only half-full of asparagus, because the other half of the bag must be empty, so it can fit into the sealer.
When you combine this fact with the shrinking internal space as the bag gets re-used, bags are only able to hold 1/4 or less of their actual capacity. It sucks.
There's a lot to like about the Oliso in theory. It has a tiny footprint on the counter and the idea of re-usable bags is awesome. But the bags aren't really re-usable the way this system works, and after having used it for a while, I find myself wishing I had a more traditional "cut and reseal" type of unit.

Dog Musher : Didn't work
Purchased for Sous Vide based on Serious Eats.
Pro:
- compact unit
- interesting design
- potential to reuse bags
Cons:
- bags are impossible to clean. Fat from protein gets around the seal and you can't get it out. Limits bag reuse
- bags did not reseal the second time. Tried to seal multiple time without getting a solid vacuum
- tried the dry crisper bag; held a vacuum for only 12 hours
Customer service was unable to provide an adequate resolution.
Returned.

L. R. Kreimer : Small but Good
I was impressed by the size(so small) compared to others on the market and how well it worked I do like the aspect of the reusable bags.
Sasha : Will save you money.
This works! It does just what I wanted it for. Easier than others I had.
nintendomo : Best vacuum sealer ever!!!!!!!!
I love my Oliso!!! It is SO small that it fits in a drawer or on a cabinet shelf. Just because it is small doesn't mean it isn't powerful! I have had 2 food savers and this is just as efficient. I love the fact that the bags can be reused several times (how many times depends on bag-size). Another nifty feature is that there is a "moist" setting so that you can vacuum pack foods with a little moisture like a raw steak. I also love that it comes with ready-made bags. I am giving these to my kids!
