impulse sealer 12"(300mm) impulse heat sealer Machine Bag Heat Sealer Capper For Plastic Mylar and Cereal Bags Snack Food Saver Storage with Replacement Element Grip

The media could not be loaded. I ordered this unit in order to seal Polypropylene bags for packaging t-shirts. The thing works like a dream. Finding the perfect temperature can be a bit of a chore, but once I got the hang of it I was sealing everything from Tater Chips to powdered sugar. I never found anything that needed a temperature setting greater than 4 so keep it low. The only down side is it's a bit bulky and takes up a lot of counter space. If you have the room for it and you don't need it to vacuum seal it's definitely worth buying.

Works great, super easy to use, makes a clean seal for my cookies. I also love that it’s only hot in use. Great product

works so far wish the seal was wider but I knew that when I bought it for mylar bags

This is a no brainer purchase. Works great. Use it everyday!

I was very excited to start using it. Didn’t work from the start. A friend of mine opened it up and said it was cheaply made. He fixed it, but it stopped working after two days... I would not buy or recommend. I will be buying a new one from another company...

The unit looks like a cheap toy that you would buy at the dollar store. There is a lot a play in the arm and you have to be careful when you close the arm to make sure it aligns with the heat seal strip. For some reason the right side of the heat seal strip gets hotter than the left. I flipped the strip over and it still does it, so I think the right side of the arm just presses down harder than the left. There is no way to adjust the pressure between the left and right side, so the easiest way to overcome this is to seal the bag then flip it 180 and seal the same spot again. It was 1/4 the price of comparable models, so you get what you pay for. For the most part it works as advertised... so 3 stars.

Have had this for a year - no problems at all.

This impulse sealer is perfect for those times you don't want a vacuum seal. Dialing in the correct temperature setting is the trickiest part of using the sealer.One improvement I made was adding two guides to ensure the lever comes down centered on the heating element. Took just a few minutes to add guides with a 3D pen. Now, the lever always clamps down well centered.
