can u attach the jar sealer to this unit.

I use this all the time to seal mason jars. No attachments needed. Put the mason jar sealer cap on your jar. With no added attachment, place the jar sealer over the port and press slightly as you run it. You will feel air coming out of the small air release hole in front. When you no longer feel air and/or the sound changes you know your sealed. Works every time.

Not as it comes out of the box. If you are mechanical you can make an adaptor so it works.

Yes you can. Just put the adapter that came with this unit on the bottom and connect the plastic hose. I don't know if you will achieve as good a vacuum as you would with one of the regular bag sealing units but it can be done. I can get pretty good results with other plastic container food saver units using this small sealer. The best answer is to go ahead and give it a try and if it works for you, do it.

While I haven't tried it myself there is a review http://www.amazon.com/FoodSaver-FSFRSH0055-FreshSaver-Handheld-Vacuum-Sealing/product-reviews/B002NGNBR8?pageNumber=2 that says no it will not work.

I have used it and the Food Saver Meal Saver with the adapter. I have even used the manual Ziploc with the jar adapters and the jars have stayed sealed. Make sure jar tops are clean and free of blemishes or chips.

Yes you can, it's not suppose to fit but if you hold it in place it will suction jars. You kind of have to shove the attachment into the rubberized part and make sure it's airtight and hold it there

I don't see why not. My son has different bags and they worked on this sealer.

it is used with the food saver machine.. it's the same as the one for the wide mouth jar only for the smaller mouth jars.. it fits on with the same hose as the wide mouth jar sealer..

Yes. Let me forewarn you, however. This extension is a piece of crap. It has very poor sealing, and it leaks with minor movement. We took it off just a week after trying it. Buyer beware!

There's an attachment that fits into the hole at the top of the jar sealer. The attachment is a 'nozzle' and tubing. If your hand held doesn't have this attachment then I don't think it will work.

Lance, I believe this would work with the FoodSaver T03-0006-02P Regular-Mouth Jar Sealer or T03-0023-01 Wide-Mouth Jar Sealer. The MV8000 can draw 25 in Hg, 20 Hg is needed to seal a mason jar. I'm going to purchase a Sinbo DZ-280/2SE bag sealer but I'm told from seller that it will not work with the FS jar sealers. I want to be able to seal mason jars as well as bags and I'm going to use the MV8000 and FS jar sealer to do it. If you look on Youtube there are videos of people using similar hand vac pumps and even a modified bicycle pump to seal jars, if that will work so will this pump.

No. That would be a good use for it. It comes with a rubber seal and the unit is metal.

No, I do not. I know we tried to get a sealer for our old Food Saver and finally gave up and just got a new one. Sorry.

I have a number of these in different sizes. The ones I have are absolutely air tight. The ridges of the molded silicon gasket surrounding the top of the jar provide the flexibility to form a seal with the inner rim of the lid. There should be no need to add anything.

Yes. That is your canister seal. It makes the canister air tight and keeps your food fresh and bugs out.

I would check and make sure the rubber seal is in place. Mine comes off after each use and I have to reattach it. Also try the dual lid trick. Otherwise mine works fine. Please note if the plastic has a crack, the jar sealer will not work.

You can however I bought a tool specific for this, it seals from both sides at the same time. Worth the money

Yes, you have to be sure and get the sealon, then screw the lid on tight. It works well for me.

Sorry, but I have no idea if there is a difference. I figured either regular mouth jar sealer had to fit. I chose this one (from Goodman's) because it was the cheapest, including shipping. Still no problems with it at all. Hope this helps.

I think you would have to buy the Foodsaver tube attachment & still am not sure it would work. This is a great sealer, but works best with the bags that it is made seal since it has the "port" to seal it.

There is an accessory that allows you to vacuum seal jars. I bought it but have not used it yet. However, if it works as well as the rest of the unit and accessories, it should be fine.

Yes the hose port and hose accessory will seal mason jars as long as you have the jar sealer to put on the jar and attach to the hose. Can't help you with warranty questions, that is a question for the manufacturer. Also that was not a question, it was a statement. By the way, I haven't had to use the warranty. My game saver bronze is still working great.
