Anova Precision Vacuum Sealer Pro vs FoodSaver Elite All-in-One Liquid+

Both are one-handed external vacuum sealers with a five-year warranty, a bag roll and cutter, and a wet-food mode. The Anova Pro is the smaller, simpler machine and adds an accessory port for jars, containers and wine bottles. The FoodSaver Elite All-in-One Liquid+ is larger and heavier, but it offers more modes, including marinate, pulse and sous vide, and its Liquid+ design is built for very wet foods. Owners of both report seal failures, so build quality is a wash. Buy the Anova for counter space and container sealing. Buy the FoodSaver if you marinate often or want finer control over delicate foods.

• Choose the Anova Precision Vacuum Sealer Pro if you want a compact one-hand sealer that also seals canning jars, containers and wine bottles through its accessory port.
• Choose the FoodSaver Elite All-in-One Liquid+ if you seal a lot of juicy or liquid-heavy food and want marinate, pulse and sous vide modes.
