    VAC Master VP112 problems

    It is sealing fine. You can see the lid flex as it pumps down. Gauge holds stable too so it is not leaking down.

    VAC Master VP112 problems

    It has hardly even been used. Today it worked fine. But I also used bags almost 2x the needed size too.

    VAC Master VP112 problems

    I do allow for some of the bag to go past the bar but is blows the bag up so much it causes the bag to buckle and become uneven and hard to make a good seal. If this is normal it is a piss poor design if you ask me.

    Vacmaster 112 problems

    When I put something to vac down while the camber is pulling down the bag inside inflates. This causes sealing and vacuum issues. What is causing it to blow up the bags inside the chamber. Thank you for the help.

    Used Large BGE Smoker

    I found a used large BGE for sale. It is an older model and the fire box doesn't have the split in it for expansion like a new one does. And the diameter of the egg is 20" and I measured a new one today and it is 22". Should I be concerned with these differences? What should I be aware of before...

    Vacmaster VP112

    I'm having a problem with my VP112. When it is pumping down the chamber, the bag inside will inflate causing the machine to not get a tight vacuum on the bag. I even find air in the bag sometimes. What is causing this. I have been so disappointed in this machine. I haven't even sealed 200 bags...
