Brick,

how do you like your Sinbo?

In fact, since most folks around here have mainly talked about the
tilia brand sealers (I got a Professional II when I was accessorizing
while waiting for my Kamado to be delivered ) , we should see how many
are using other sealers and get some comparisons. If there are other
types of vacuum sealers that are equal or better functionally and have
lower operating costs (bags, rolls, etc) that'd be some good info to
share.
