To avoid confusion while vacuum sealing various food items, the Megawise Vacuum Food Sealer offers two modes, dry and moist, that you can use according to your food type. It is a handy feature to prevent spending money on two types of vacuum sealers meant for dry and moist sealing individually.
You can easily touch the Food button from its upper and lower side for the moist and dry mode to easily vacuum different kinds of food.

The external cutter of Megawise Vacuum Sealer 80kPa adds an extra element to the anterior of this product and does an essential job while using this vacuum sealer. The blades of its cutter are at the inward side, making it extremely safe to use.
While using any vacuum bag, sometimes it runs larger for a small food item. To save a lot of space, you can use this cutter to get a bag of your desired size and then seal the sides by pressing its Seal button. This prevents you from running low on vacuum bags at the time of emergency. Thus, it saves money and also produces less waste.
5. Design
This best vacuum sealer for the money has a sleek body that makes it look extremely stylish. It has one-touch buttons and an external cutter at the top for convenient use. Most of the efficient and multifunctional vacuum sealers are big and heavy that limits their use to one place only as they are difficult to move.
However, this Megawise Vacuum Food Saver has a very compact and lightweight body. Its dimensions are 15.2 x 4.1 x 2.3 inches and 2.3 lbs weight that allows you to move and carry it from one place to another or store it in a compact place if you use it less often. Thus, this Megawise lightweight vacuum sealer is one of the best vacuum sealers, which we can guarantee based on our experience and as per many customer views and review articles.
6. External Vacuum
This vacuum sealer has possessed many functions that help you preserve your food items for more prolonged use and comfort your lives by saving a lot of money. It not only seals food items in vacuum bags but can also be used for vacuuming a jar, container, and wine bottle. This vacuum sealer will store your food 5 times longer than most regular vacs.
This appliance comes with a silicone exhaust pipe that needs to be connected to this machine. This external vac pipe, when connected to any container, sucks out air from it to preserve the food item inside. This feature is effortless to use and also helps in the faster absorption of flavors into the foods that need to be marinated.
7. Heating Strip
Most of the vacuum sealers have short and low-quality heating strips that do not give a clean finish to the seal. Nevertheless, this best vacuum sealer for fish has a high-quality long heating strip that seals our vacuum bags neatly and tightly without causing any wrinkles or unevenness on the line.
The length of this heating strip is 12 inches that helps you seal many bags at a time. Sealing several bags(3-5) collectively saves a lot of time. While sealing these vacuum bags, this strip does not come in contact with the user, making it extra safe to use. So more hassle or worry in sealing food bags.
