Review: Orblue Bag Heat Sealer



Product Description
Place edge of poly or mylar bag in your sealer and slowly pull the bag through. Magnetic bottom so it easily attaches to refrigerators. 

My Review
If you like chips then you know what a pain it is to roll up the bag and find a clip to seal it. The clips really don't keep air out and they don't stay fresh for long. But with this bag sealer you can squeeze the bag and seal it so that no air gets in. Just hold the bag closed and pull the sealer along the edge of the bag. 

I found it easier to start in the middle and pull it to one side and then back to the other and that seemed to seal it really good. I didn't find that this worked with sandwich bags or the like, it just cut those bags but it works really good on potato chip bags which is why I wanted it in the first place. 

I also really like that it has a magnet on the back so you can keep it right on the refrigerator where you can easily find it. It's nice and small and doesn't take up much room. 

I was able to use this heat sealer right out of the box because it comes with batteries already installed. 

If you'd like to buy one of these heat sealers, you can find it here

I tried this heal sealer out of a few different bags of stuff that I already had. This snack pack was a thicker plastic than a sandwich baggie and I had no problem sealing it.

I cut off the end and slid the heat sealer across the opening and it sealed it right up. 

All sealed up. 

I tried it on a bag of Bugles we had. I had to cut the top off because it was so wrinkled that the heat sealer wouldn't slide across real easily but it sealed this too. 

All sealed up.

  4. A handy gadget because you can never find a tie or something suitable to close a bag when you want it!

  7. Interesting gadget... We have a vacuum pack sealer, but it is a big production to get it out to use it

  8. Oh that could be handy. I'm like Sage. I have a vacuum sealer but I rarely use it. It just sits in the drawer.

  9. Interesting product! Can you keep opening the bag and reselling it with this? I hate those fake ziploc enclosures so many products come with these days.....they never work!

  12. That looks really handy. I just recently learned that you can actually put opened packets of crisps in the freezer to keep them fresh when they've been opened!

  15. RO- Thanks. I really like it and use it all the time.

    Click- I didn't know that. Might have to try that too.

    TheJerseyMomma- It really does. I love it.

    Chrys- I have so many clips and still use them for some things.

  16. Oh this looks neat, nee rheard of a heat sealer before, but it sounds like it would be handy. We have lots of IKEA clips lying around whcih work pretty well, although they often get out of shape after a lot of use. This heat sealer seems nice for things you only have to open once or twice, but for things like rat food bags I think clips still work better.
