Does this work with the jar sealer?

I don't know.. I'm so sorry.. I don't have the jar sealer and I didn't save the box or instructions for this product. I would suggest doing a google search on this particar model. I can tell you though that I'm satisfied with the ease of operation but only semi satisfied with the suction of the item.. It seems it could have taken out more air.. Maybe slightly underpowered, but the price reflects it.

I haven't used jar sealer personally yet , but the instructions inside said it would.

It does actually only work with regular mouth jars. I wish it worked on large mouth! For some reason I didn't realize that it had to be used with an adapter type piece that fits between the machine and the jar and therefore, in my opinion, doesn't work as well as the plastic containers that come with it and go directly on the blender. But It's the only thing I've found to work with jars and so i do use it some that way.

The regular mouth will NOT fit wide mouth. A regular mouth sealer will fit a regular mouth jar and a wide mouth sealer will fit the wide mouth jar. Glad you asked!

Yes, it works with the foodsaver bags. I ordered a roll when I ordered the sealer, and cut the rolls down to smaller sizes when I need them. The only problem I have run into is sometimes I dont get a side sealed correctly when I cut them down, and the sealer will just keep vacuuming and not seal. Now I know to just reseal the side I cut, and once I do that it works perfectly.

Yes, it screws on to regular kerr mason jars with no problem. Wont fit any of the old pasta marinara jars that I have laying around though.

To my knowEdgE YOU can not seal jars. I have this unit and don't see how. It is great for everything else as long S YOU USE THE BAGS.

I am not sure what it is you are asking me,but I ordered this Tila Foodsaver hose for my Weston (Live To Cook,Michael Simon) vacuum sealer.This will attat ch to a port on this sealer to use my Foodsaver containers & jar sealers. I do have a hand held Foodsaver vacuum sealer also. You need nothing extra to seal your foodsaver containers. They have this hole on top & you place your hand held vacuum sealer over that & suction the air out.You have sealed the container. My hand held is electric. Hope this helps.

I have the Rival food sealer and these work perfectly for me...I'd assume they would work with the Foodsaver as well?

A quick check at the manufacturers site at http://www.westonsupply.com/Weston-Vacuum-Sealer-PRO-2300-Stainless-Steel-p/65-0201.htm says NO it does not come with an attachment for vacuum sealing mason jars and canisters. HOWEVER, you can look here on Amazon for Weston Vacuum Sealer Canisters and find RT Vacuum Canister Set 1.5 Qt and 2 Qt OR use the manufacturers site to find and acquire them.

No - According to the company (I contacted them 3/15/2011). It works with the more expensive heat sealing type FoodSaver machines - the ones with a special "port" - Not the FreshSaver. If you read the comments on my review, I address it there. Unless the company has a new version of this machine (I don't think so) - the FreshSaver will not work with the lids. It works with the FreshSaver ziploc bags & deli containers. This machine is meant for short term storage - not canning or freezing long term.

The FoodSaver Bottle Stoppers are designed for use with FoodSaver Vacuum Sealers. We have not tested them with any other brand sealers. We would advise checking with the manufacturer of your sealer to see if they would be compatible.

Yes it seals mason jars, but you have to buy the attachments for the jars. Basically you put the plastic attachment on the top of the jar with the rubber ringed top, push the button, and when it's done you just remove the plastic top and the top is down tight. I use it all the time. This is a good example: http://www.amazon.com/FoodSaver-T03-0006-02P-Regular-Mouth-Jar-Sealer/dp/B000UQ428A/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1395016846&sr=8-3&keywords=mason+jar+sealer

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.

Without knowing the dimensions of the Tattler and Weck lids, there isn't any way to know. The sealer appears to be pretty size-specific, both in diameter and in height. The one I have fits wide mouth (~3 1/8") Ball and Mason jar lids just fine but won't fit the standard lids - though there is a different sealer that will fit them but not the wide mouth. I think the Tattler lids will work with any band which would seem to indicate that they would work with the sealer.

Yes, you can use a VACUUM-type sealer that sucks all the air out of the jar -- I do it all the time. Food Saver® brand does it very well, as long as the unit is capable of sealing 'cannisters'.

No it will only work on the true wide mouth jars. What you want is a regular mouth canning funnel, which inexplicably are usually called wide mouth as well. Measure your jar and then check against the measurement on the funnel. What you want should be very easy to find, much easier than this.

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.
