Great for stretching life of food as long as possible - goodeats, Jul 03, 2008

Saw the frisper at a Linen's N Things and was intrigued so purchased one here on Amazon, and have been using it happily a few weeks ago. The bags are pretty costly, but I try to be choiceful about what I'm sealing in it. Use it mostly for meats, cheeses, and lunch meats (the kind you get at costco in gigantic packaging). It also works really well on salami and semi-precious-ish veggies like asparagus, or Californian's beloved avocadoes.

The machine itself is pretty nice looking and simple to use. I'm a sucker for nice graphic design as well, and love the easy to follow instructions. I've only had about 4-5 times where it didn't work properly, but they have a very responsive customer service team that walked me through fixing it over the phone.

Overall this is such a treat to have and its so nice to have my bulk items in neatly packaged items (just like when you buy them from the store).

nice idea...but - kkards, May 24, 2008

Like some of the other reviewers, I can not get the frisper to work consistantly. And when I do get what seems to be an airtight seal, when I take the item out of the frig a day later...it is no longer vacuum sealed.
This product is a waste of money.

Didn't live up to expectations - Randal Lathrop, May 20, 2008

I bought one yesterday at LNT and it is going back tomorrow. I liked the idea of having a reusable bag and figured I could save some money. I tried it out and I was not impressed. It is loud and rattles around quite a bit. It doesn't adequately remove the air from the bag before sealing it. I tried several times but just couldn't get all air out. I figure the sealing mechanism is a count-down timer and not based on the amount of air that can still be removed.

Great product, once you learn how to use it - Stephen Lee, May 13, 2008

You'd really hope that a product like this would "just work." It seemed simple enough to start - line up the circles, close and let go. Yet in my first 10 attempts I only got it to work maybe 3 times. I was getting pretty annoyed by this point, so I talked with their support and found out all the things I was doing wrong. Basically to get it to work correctly I needed to put the bag smooth-side up, horizontally-oriented (I tried the corner circle a few times by putting the bag in diagonally - which apparently didn't cover a hole that it needs to to trigger the vacuum), watch for wrinkles near the air hole that might impede the suction (if there are some, pull them straight).

Now that I know what I'm doing I'm actually pretty happy with it! It's very compact, the ziploc-style bags are heavy-duty and reusable, and the vacuum seals are holding well. Overall, I'm giving it four stars because although it really is a great product, there are too many opportunities for users to make mistakes.

Fits in my kitchen and works! - scott, May 12, 2008

Oliso FRSP-500 Frisper Freshkeeper Vacuum Sealer with Reusable Bags

I recently received my Frisper and I found it to be contrary to the average review here. The first thing I noticed was its tiny size which neatly fits atop my kitchen counter. Tracking down something i could quickly "frisp" I chose to ignore the instruction manual and instead followed a brief but concise instructional video on youtube. Threw in some vegetables and a minute later I had a vacuumed seal celery.

A couple things to note, the bags are pretty awesome, the zip lock features works very well and even sticking a meal and poaching the bag works out nicely. On the rare occasion of an incomplete seal the manual has explicit instructions on how to correct it and even indicates with diagrams on diagnosing if your seal was done incorrectly. The one thing that did i found to be slightly frustrating is that for liquidy products you have to be much more careful with the seal placing.
Hope this review helped.
