Anova Precision Chamber Vacuum Sealer review

The Anova Precision Chamber Vacuum Sealer is the most affordable way on this list to get chamber sealing, which matters if you bag liquids. Because the whole chamber is evacuated, Anova says equalized pressure keeps food or liquid where you put it in the pouch, useful for fish, soups and marinated foods. The spec sheet lists -0.95 bar, a 70 L/min dry pump that needs no maintenance, an 11.8 inch seal bar and a 12 x 8.6 x 3 inch chamber, in a glass and coated stainless steel body drawing 280 watts. Preset modes cover sealing and tasks like quick pickles, infused alcohols and flavored oils, and manual controls adjust vacuum and seal strength. Chamber pouches skip the mesh liner of suction bags. The limits are pouch size, set by the chamber, and a footprint of 13.6 x 11.2 x 8.9 inches. The $279.00 price is shown as a sale from $374.00. We compared documented features and published prices and did not run sealing tests.
