I'm interested in this thread from a UK perspective. I've tried to interest Amazon UK in selling the VP210C without success. Amazon US sell it for around $1000 but the cheapest UK source I can find is nearly £2000, so I've been looking at cheaper alternatives. One such is the VacStar Mini-Vac (RRP c £1300) which looks a well-made machine but I'm slightly concerned about the relatively small sealing chamber and the short seal bar (200mm) which looks as if it's really only suitable for single portion packs. Another alternative is the Foodtek Cucina 300 (RRP c£1550) which has a similar chamber and bar size to the VP210C but somewhat smaller overall dimensions which looks convenient for domestic use.
Does anyone have any experience with either of these products?
