Vacuum sealer?

Ok, I have just about killed my LEM vacuum sealer. I’ve had this about 8 years, and it was their cheapest model at the time. It was replacing a Foodsaver that I worked to death with almost daily usage.
Besides Foodsaver and LEM, does anyone have recommendations? I’d love to do a chamber sealer, but those are huge and I don’t have space for that

Second the foodsaver
Its been an essential accessory for salmon fishing for years along with an electric carving knife both can run on a 12V to 120V inverter we use it when and where we need it.

Food saver, my son and I have had them for years. My nephew has the upper-tier food saver with the bag roll held in the sealer and a slide cutter. If I used it a lot, that's the one I would buy; it's a lot more convenient.

Same. Bags by the roll are cheaper and more versatile.

This.
It's handy when you're making a lot of bags.

I will be using the heck out of our Foodsaver tomorrow. Every time the bulk food store has the 40# box of boneless skinless chicken breasteses under $60 I get one.
