Can this be used on those vacuum storage bags?

Any vacuum will do...just make sure it has a hose attachment. The hose can vary in diameter, as the space around the suction point on the bag is smaller than the vacuum hose diameter and the space also includes a hard plastic ring that will support the vacuum hose without sucking in the plastic bag.

I don't believe so. It is designed for: Mylar, Polypropylene, Static shielding, Nylon, Polyethylene, & Polyurethane bags

Yes, but they must be the Ziploc VACUUM seal bags, not the regular Ziploc bags that come with pre-attached sealers.

No, these are not for hand held systems and don't have the vacuum circle. However, they do work with a FoodSaver vacuum sealer where you lay the bag into the vacuum chamber.

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.

Dear J, I use different brands of food saver bags with my unit. As long as the bags are designed for vacuum sealing you should be fine. Enjoy!

While I've not tried either, I would think not. They are specifically designed to be used on a powerful vacuum seal machine. I doubt you would get much benefit without the sealer.

These bags are intended for vacuum sealers that use a water chamber (which are common in commercial kitchens). If you have one of those, then this will work fine. However, if you have the type of vacuum sealer that only uses air (these are most common in households) then these bags will not work.

Absolutely, then go on amazon and buy cheap vacuum sealer bags, they are less than half the cost and work just as well.

We have a Dyson vaccuum and it worked fine. However, I would not recommend these bags. The seals on the edges are not great and they expanded back out overnight! Very frustrating

I believe it can, as I think vacuum system can be used. You just have to be able to connect the vacuum system with the unit and so, must have the appropriate connector. So, if you can use the same connector hose it will work fine.

Yes, these bags are designed for the handheld FreshSaver units and the attachment that goes on the hose for the heatseal units. The attachment for the heatseal hose is available on the FoodSaver website, not on Amazon. These bags are 'hit and miss.' Sometimes they work great, sometimes not at all. Sometimes they allow a vacuum but lose it quickly or over several days. With these bags, you take your chances if they will create or hold a vacuum.

I have used it with Sears canister and an Oreck upright. Make sure you vacuum well first, then change to a new bag.

It should work with any vacuum. If the nozzle is a different size you could use some quick removing blue painters tape to seal it up to your vacuum, then easily remove the tape once done. This tool really isn't very good though. There has to be something better out there. It's a little too wide to fit between some refrigerator elements and it collapses when clogged. When that happens you have to unclog it or it doesn't work at all. I would not have bought this product if I knew then what I know now.

I would like to tell you yes, but I can't. If your vacuum has a 1 inch diameter port, it should work fine.

Yes. These bags will work with all standard vacuum sealer machines (like Foodsaver, Weston, Cabela's. Seal-A-Meal, VacMaster...). They are a universal bag and a great value!
