Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I just received mine from Amazon, and I was very pleased at how easy it is to set up and use. It can run on batteries, but I used the included AC adapter. Simply plug in the unit, place your items inside, close the lid, and snap the clasp closed. The machine immediately starts humming as it creats a vacuum: about two minutes to complete the process. I was able to fit in a loaf of bread, several muffins and 6 bananas. To open, simply undo the clasp and wait a few seconds. Only time will tell, of course, if the iTouchless fresh sealer will hold up to constant use. I shall update in a few months.
UPDATE: Update sooner than I thought: the machine works well. However, a brief word about bananas.
If you place a green banana inside the iTouchless, vacuum seal, then let it be for a week, at the end of the week the banana will still be green (or slightly yellowing). However, open the banana and it will be well-ripen. The banana simply ripens as if it were out on the counter for the week. All you do is keep the skin looking newish. The 'green' banana I had this morning had the inside of an almost blackened banana: very mushy. It is obvious that the 'meat' of a banana cares nothing for our feeble attempts to prolong its life.
The iTouchless does work well with bread and apples, to date. Again, very easy to use. I still recommend, just do not purchase for the sole purpose of keeping bananas fresh longer.
UPDATE FEBRUARY 15, 2008: I agree with the 'one star' reviewer: the unit does generate some heat. Not enough to melt chocolate or such, but noticeable. I would not try to keep items like cherries, grapes, etc., inside this iTouchless. When I tried items that have a high moisture content there would soon be moisture inside the bubble top, and leads to spoilage.
After a year of usage I would downgrade my recommendation to 3 stars. It is good within its narrow range, but the heat it generates does, as the one-star reviewer noted, actually speed up molding in some fruits. Pity.

Save time, money and hassle with the Fresh Sealer. Just close the transparent lid, this 12 Liter container automatically sucks out the air to protect breads, pastries, chips, crackers, cereals and more, keeping them fresh longer. Smart vacuum sensor stops the pump when the perfect pressure is achieved and maintains that same pressure at all time.It is also a quick food marinator.Since Fresh Sealer quickly pumps air out, allowing foods' pores and fibers to stretch and expand while marinade gets pulled deeper into the core and better than overnight soak marination.You can marinate meats/foods in minutes instead of hours under vacuum stage.Other vacuum food sealers on the market require to purchase special bags or keep pumping the air out manually.If you are looking for a better and touchless way to store foods longer and marinate foods faster, the Fresh Sealer is your solution.Removable dishwasher safe tray for easy cleaning.Powered by AC adaptor (included) or 4 D sized batteries (not included).
