Chef Extraordinaire
I've had some of the Reynolds bags allow air back in. These had items in them that were stored in the fridge, so it wasn't from freezing and getting bumped around. You could plainly see that the bag had lost its vacuum after a couple days. I'm still going to rely on my Foodsaver unit for anything I don't need to get at all the time, like cheeses and such. And items going in the freezer. I'm curious whether the zip-loc failed or the valve.... It has only been the smaller bags.
Me too. And have sometimes found them impossible to seal.
And guess what? I got a real FOODSAVER for Xmas!
I still think the Reynolds unit is good for things you want to open and reseal frequently.
