The Rival VS110 Seal-a-Meal lets you preserve your leftovers, bulk foods, and important documents far more effectively than using zipper-lock bags or plastic wrap. Oxygen and moisture are the mortal enemies of fresh food and other items; therefore, it stands to reason that the best way to preserve such items is by removing the oxygen. That's exactly the approach of the Seal-a-Meal, which vacuums oxygen out of included pre-cut plastic bags or rolls, then seals the plastic with its bag cutter. Now you can keep not only food fresh for far longer, but also treasured photographs, collectible books, birth certificates, or even certain items of clothing. The Seal-a-Meal comes with more than 50 feet of high-density bags, along with an integrated bag/roll holder and cutter. The unit uses Microban antimicrobial protection to inhibit the growth of stain- and odor-causing bacteria, though it will not protect the user from food-borne illnesses. As an added bonus, the sealer offers an accessory port that connects to the separately sold Universal Sealer, which seals items in canisters and mason jars. Other features include a convenient wall mount option and a removable, dishwasher-safe drip tray. --Rivers Janssen

 It doesn't last long! November 23, 2008
Brian R. Jewell
After owning this model for a couple of years, over which time it got minimal use, the heating element became "uneven", so that now it burns a hole in most of the bags I try to seal. A friend with the same model had the same problem.
I think that part of the problem is due to the fact that Rival cheapened the bag refills a while back by making them very thin. So, now they seldomly remain air tight for very long.
I would not recommend this model!

This is a GREAT machine to have in the kitchen. It's hard working and durable. The kit that comes with it is very helpful also, as it gets you started with bags, and the machine is nothing without it's bags.

Rival does not have parts for their vacuume sealers. Customer service is non-existent with this company. Their address is a PO box, and have never recieved a reply. Avoid their products at all cost. Those selling their products, must only see a high mark-up.

I purchase a Seal-A- Meal little over a year ago. The heating eliminate developed a hole in the eliminate cover and was burning the bags . So I call Rival and was told that Rival does not sale parts or provide service repair for its Seal-A- Meal products. Rival was only willing to sell me a discounted new Seal-A-Meal. I have used vacuum seals at work in the past. The heating eliminate always developed a hole in the heating eliminate cover. Most vacuum sealer companies sale replacement heating eliminate.
Beware when purchasing a Rival Seal-A-Meal

My husband bought me the Seal-a-Meal for our Anniversary and I was excited to start using it. My kids have multiple food allergies so we rarely eat out (meaning I rarely get a night off from cooking!) so I wanted to be able to freeze homemade convience foods for once and awhile. The Seal-a-Meal worked great in the beginning but after using it approximately 6-7 times the sealing mechanism stopped working. Not only that but the vacuum will remain on until I unplug it.
I emailed Rival about replacing it but haven't heard back from them yet. At this point it was a HUGE waste of money and I can't recommend it.
