As the only vacuum sealing system on the market to include a detachable cordless handheld unit, users can easily vacuum seal, heat seal and marinate all with one device. The vacuum sealer is ideal for keeping meat, seafood and vegetables as fresh as the day they were purchased, while the detachable handheld device creates an airtight seal to lock in freshness by removing air from containers, jars, reusable bags and even wine bottles. Using the power of vacuum technology, the detachable handheld device can also marinate proteins and vegetables in minutes, not hours with a 12 minute marinate cycle. Its lightweight, compact design stores in a cabinet, pantry, or drawer when not in use.

"We recognize that consumers are concerned about rising food prices and are looking for ways to save money ahead of the holiday season," said Julien McCluney, VP of Global Brand Management, Kitchen, Newell Brands. "The FoodSaver Handheld+ 2-in-1 Vacuum Sealing System helps consumers keep their food fresher for longer, whether stored in the fridge, pantry or freezer, ultimately preventing food waste and saving them money on grocery bills. This innovative vacuum sealer is the first-ever to combine a countertop unit and a cordless handheld device into one compact machine, providing a versatile and user-friendly solution for everyday food storage needs."

The FoodSaver Handheld+ 2-in-1 Vacuum Sealing System is compatible with all FoodSaver® accessories including bags and rolls, Preserve & Marinate containers, bottle stoppers and jar sealers. For added convenience, the sealer features a dishwasher-safe removable drip-tray for easy clean-up and a long-lasting rechargeable battery that can seal up to 35 zipper quart bags on a single charge.

The easy-to-use 2-in-1 Vacuum Sealer comes in three colors and a variety of vacuum sealing bags and accessories to get you started. MSRP ranges from $149.99 to $169.99, and the Handheld+ is available now at FoodSaver.com, Amazon, Target, Kohl's, and at Walmart in-stores and online this month.
