I have the Food Saver hand-held vacuum unit using the bags, but I notice that it does remove all the air but it only lasts for about 24 hours before the air starts to leak back in. So, you have to suck out any remaining air on a daily basis. I haven't tried the vacuum containers yet to see if they work any better at keep the air out.
I bet this has been one of their best sellers, good video! I just sent a letter to them, suggesting they throw a few dollars towards this type of market, I wonder if they will do it.
Those bags look a lot like the ones with my hand-pump Zip-Loc brand system. Hopefully they'll work out better for you, because I found that mine would lose their vacuum within a week or so in the freezer, best-case scenario. A significant number of the bags wouldn't hold a seal for more than a couple minutes, and most were only good for a few days (without any jostling, handling, etc.)

I have the same on and love it . . . great for kits of all types!
As always, many thanks for the shout out ;-)
I had to watch this twice because I am the "bag man" and there is nothing better than vacuum bagging!
