A funny coincidence

[Guest guest]

I quit the Foodsaver group about a week ago. That was about the

time that the discussion regarding Foodsaver vs Pump-n-Seal started in

this group.

There is not escape!!!!

My Foodsaver is great and so is my Pump-N-Seal. The Pump-n-Seal works

with all Foodsaver accessories and with almost any jar--it doesn't

have to be a ball jar. The Pump-n-Seal pulls a much stronger vacuum

than the Vacu Vin (I have one of those too). The new Vacu vin stoppers

are great, but they can only be used with a Vacu vin.
