Can an impulse sealer be used on these bags?

Yes you can. You may need a little more heat than shrink wrap though but not much.

I read all of the content that was on the box of bags that I received and did not see it say that you could or could not reuse these bags. These are to be used with the sealing machine: Food Saver which uses heat to create a seal - not a zip type bag. You have to cut the bag open to get to your food after it has been steamed...... I suppose you could try it, but your bag will get smaller with each use, and the company probably cannot give you advise on reuse because they don't want to be responsible in case of bacteria left over from the previous use....

You can cut the bag in half or to fit the item you are vacuum sealing. Then just seal the open end(s) before vacuum sealing. Hope this helps.

Not sure. I only use it to seal bags. Honestly I didn't even know there was an option to seal canisters.

Doubtful. There is no sealer around the various pieces. Just plastic upon plastic.

Yes you can. I suggest double seal on both ends. Also I suggest food saver bags, some other brands are just not up there in quality. The price difference is well worth it.

The bags are not pre cut so you can make any size bag. We use this vacuum sealer for freezing meats and fish. I am very happy with it. Very easy to use.

Vacuum chamber pouches are mde of a different plastic than the ones for sealers without chambers so I think the answer is no.

I have a Rival vacuum sealer and I really like the bags. I've used the sealer bags where you cut the bags to the desired length and seal both ends. These eliminate the extra step.

Yes you can just seal s bag, just hit the seal button once you insert the bag. I have never tried using regular bags, but I think they would be too thin and not melt properly, and possibly ruin the vacuum slot. Not recommended by Foodsaver.

A foodsaver vacuum sealer works, you can also use an impulse sealer. I have heard of people using an iron as well but I haven't tried that.

You could if they worked. They do not seal properly and they don't hold the vacuum seal. I would have sent them back, but I threw away the return info. They are junk!

My understanding is the bags are not for freezer use, so the answer is no. To do that you'd need to purchase their bigger food saver sealing machine.

Sorry ! Not sure. I thought that Mylar bags used an internal double stick tape to seal. Ie balloons If you were going to try to use it on something like a potato chip bag, it might work.In general, this is a great machine.

They are too big to fit. The first time I ordered these I "re-rolled" some onto an old spool so they would fit into the sealer. Now I don't even bother - I just use the cutter to cut off what I need and make bags. Much easier and much, much cheaper than the other brand. I use these all the time.

Lots of brands will work. Weston bags (available from Amazon & prime eligible) work very well and are pretty inexpensive. Of course, if you mean to ask "plain bags", then no- you need ones designed for a clamp vac sealer. But the Weston are about as good as you'll find.
