4 out of 5 stars Overall pretty good   August 11, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This sealer works pretty well as a kitchen gadget. It does what it is supposed to do. It won't work with rechargeable batteries because of their lower voltage but works pretty well on alkaline batteries. There is a balance to be found between sealing speed and the pressure that you apply but it only takes a minute to figure out.

Now... for those of you using this in unusual ways (like myself), this sealer doesn't do a good job at making large airtight bags. It would be perfectly fine for sealing up a bag of chips if there was a pinhole leak but if you want to make a perfectly airtight seal then you are going to have to find something else unless you are some sort of super heat sealing ninja. There are always going to be tiny leaks here and there with this device.



1 out of 5 stars Awful Product...   February 15, 2008
  4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This product is not worth purchasing. If it were an option, I would have given this product 0 stars. I attempted to use the product as directed but, after 30 minutes of trying to seal a bag of chips and a few battery changes and bag changes, very little of the bag was "sealed." And the part that was "sealed" was entirely too easy to reopen. I bought the product in hopes that it would help prevent a moth problem in the kitchen. Moths are resourceful and this product was no help whatsoever. My biggest regret is that I bought it as a holiday gift for the household and by the time the holiday came around, it had been past the 30 day return policy in order to get my money back.


1 out of 5 stars itouchless is desperately disappointing   November 11, 2007
  8 out of 10 found this review helpful

Bought these to give as part of a house warming gift and was so disappointed and embarassed. They do not seal at all - I tried it out on chips bags, thinnner plastic bags, nacho plastic bags, pretzel bags, even bread bags it does not work on any(even tried different battery brands). Unfortunately I got them way in advance of the house warming and so by the time I found out they are useless the return date to amazon had passed. Don't be fooled as I was and if you decide to buy them then test them immediately- there may be one or two which work, though I don't hold high hopes of that.


3 out of 5 stars cool gadget, time consuming to use   October 17, 2007
  4 out of 4 found this review helpful

Good price, quality item, however, you have to insert the batteries every time you use this and take them out when you're not using it. There is no on/off button or switch, it's just powered by the batteries. It does heat up quickly, but I just felt as though my excitement fizzled when I put it together and used it. Overall okay, but kind of more of a hassle than a quick helper.


4 out of 5 stars Seals if done right   August 9, 2007
  10 out of 10 found this review helpful

This product seems very easy to use and should be, however, it is tricky to get a consistent line to seal from edge to edge. I am still playing around with it to figure out an easier way. When done right it definately seals and keeps your chips fresh longer then just rolling and using a chip clip would. I would recommend for sure, but remember that practice makes perfect on its use.
