Weston Pro-2300 Vacuum Sealer Reviews

The Weston Pro-2300 is a specialty vacuum sealer that is more machine than most people will need. Like all Weston products this model features a mostly metal construction making it a lot more durable than the plastic polycarbonate found in most Vacuum Sealer. This model can accommodate bags up to 15" wide (the standard size is 11"). This additional width makes it perfect for hunters or people who are sealing larger food items. If you're looking for high quality metal construction, but don't need the extra wide sealing capacity look at the Weston 65-0501-W. This model can handle both wet and dry food items and has an angled sealing bar to prevent moisture from seeping up during the sealing process. The controls are easy to understand and use.

There are some negative points about this product you're going to want to be aware of. The biggest negative of this model is the price at $399.99 it's the highest price model we reviewed and is double the average vacuum sealer. The next thing to be aware of is the lack of on-board bag roll storage, this convenient feature is something you'll miss not having. Additionally this is a manual sealing machine, the vendor claims it's automatic, but it's not, vacuum sealers that are truly automatic grab the bag and seal it for you, this model doesn't do that. The last thing to be aware of is the size, at 15" x 23" x 9" this model takes up a lot of countertop space and isn't an easy thing to store. This really is a specialty model and more vacuum sealer than most people will need, for most people the Weston 65-0501-W or FoodSaver FM5200 will make a better choice.
