I use a soapy wet rag and then rinse the rag and make sure I get any suds left off. Works well

I shake it out. If there is anything left on it, then I just wipe with a wet paper towel. I have also vacuumed mine if the bag on the vacuum is ready to be changed. I have had mine since October and it shows no wear at all.

I just took the easy way out and cut the top of the bag off. Didn't want to struggle with the manufacturer's way of doing it. I was going to pour it into a plastic container anyway, so not concerned with keeping the bag intact.

With a stainless steel inside, hot water and a cloth should be used to clean it. Any type of a brush could scratch it.

I took apart bag area cleaned real good with hose then threw the bag in the washing machine. The rubber rollers I also cleaned with a hose then wiped down with cloth. Wrapped up whole unit in plastic bag and stored in outside shed. I am not sure if there is anything made to keep the rubber rollers soft as I can see they will get brittle in a couple years.

I don't have this particular model, but for my Maytronics pool cleaner I bring it inside to let it dry out, straighten out the cord and clean the fabric bag in my washing machine on gentle. Then I reassemble everything and store it in my basement over the winter. Hope this helps!

This is something I haven't tried, so someone with more experience could possibly provide a better answer. Considering the package is mylar and for what the product is designed to do, it is pretty obvious that moisture would be the problem. So if you could reseal in a similar type bag and eliminate the possibility of moisture contamination, I would think it would work.

I use a cotton swab to clean below the roller periodically and wipe down the bar more frequently. vacuuming is a great idea.

I seal anything with some liquid that could get sucked up in another bag first. I either use a cheap zip-lock bag & push the air out of it, or a regular food storage bag and do the same push the air out and twist it, then put it in the Waring bags & seal it. This keeps the liquids from being vacuumed into the machine, or at least you can see it seeping out & can stop before they start seeping up to the vacuum. I usually get a pretty good seal before that happens. This makes cleaning your resealable bags easier.

I put a grocery bag over my hand like a glove, fold up the pad, then pull the bag over the wadded up pad, tie it and toss it. Then I use a pre-moistened cleaning wipe to clean and (sort of) deodorize the tray.

With the device upright, pull on the top of the front panel and remove it. Using both hands, pull gently on the bag from behind it. I find that using a twisting motion works best. Dispose of the full bag. Replace with a new bag by gently (again with a twisting motion after separating the new bag folds) pushing from the front of the new bag and holding the cardboard facing around the hole. Be careful not to rupture the receptacle on the new bag.

I clean racks with wire brush, and I placed a disposable foil pan on the bottom rack to catch any drippings. I wipe the door seal with a damp cloth after every three or four uses. Great unit, Enjoy!!

Actually, there is a way to do it: cut strips of Foodsaver bags about 1" x 6" and discard the smooth side. Insert the checkered strip lengthwise into the bag, leaving about 1/2" sticking out. Seal as usual (with oxygen absorbers), making sure the strip is pushed down into the vacuum chamber. The checkered strip serves as a pathway for the air to be pulled out of the bag.I have an almost 100% success rate using my $30 Rival vacuum sealer. Never had a problem with the sealer not being hot enough.

USE LARGE FRONT LOADER! NEVER AGITATOR MACHINE; top load agitation damages bags!! [Beware of laundramat machines if there are bed bug problems in your region!!---sorry, but I've read of nightmares.] Read labels/wash instructions BEFORE DRY CLEANING; I seem to recall it's not recommended---specifics not recalled. Maybe ok.

Sorry, haven't had to clean the inside of mine yet, although I have worn them a lot and they are great! The insoles are removable, and I would try washing them by hand in cold water and air drying.

Don't unzip them. I did and all the padding inside had deteriorated after 6 months and fell apart. Just spray and wipe them on the outside.
