Looks like a nice unit.

Jeff, this company is actually located in KC. They are in the caves down by Worlds of Fun. If you truly want a great machine, save up and get the VP215. It is a chamber sealer and it is amazing. Also, give them a call and ask about scratch and dent models. We (my buddy and I who hunt a lot and process a lot of meat) picked up one for $800 if I recall correctly.

Brad, yeah, I know them quite well... they're my employer! LOL! I actually have the VP112 and the PRO260. Love 'em both!

Your company should buy a place in our Commercial Ventures section.
Cheap marketing.
Maybe offer a healthy Brethren discount and see what happens.
We are heavy users (in more ways than one :oops:) of VacuSuck machines.

Looks like a good machine.

Ah, very cool! A couple years ago I had a sealer (it was SS and I think it was a Pro 150 or something) that my buddy picked up from Cabela's. It had worked great but we were brutal on that thing with the volume we were putting through it. As expected it eventually had some issues and I set out looking for parts to repair it. Doing some research I was surprised to find Vacmaster right here in town. I gave them a call and they told me to head to the caves and ask for a gentleman (I have forgotten his name now). Everybody there was quite helpful in trying to figure out what was wrong. They even gave me a parted out unit to pull parts from. When they told me about the possible deal on a chamber sealer, my buddy and I couldn't pass it up. Those chamber sealers are a bit pricey but if you do any sort of volume at all, they are fantastic. Plus, you can get the bags much cheaper that what bags/rolls cost for a vacusuck type design.

Yep, there are some good folks up at the warehouse! And you nailed it with the cheaper bags! The suction machines have to have that textured type bag which is much more expensive to make! As for the chamber machines, I agree with you! I can't afford the 210 or 215 but the VP112 is pretty awesome. I've carried it out to several BBQ comps and shown off! :wink: But if the chamber machines aren't in your price range, this PRO170 is pretty slick and solid! I love that they added a cooling fan so you can go to town sealing bags and not have to stop because of over heating.

Tim, I wish that was my call. I'm just the social media guy. :wink: I can look into it though.

Yep, I imagine I could do that.
