We purchased this unit after fiddling with small countertop units in several configurations from the foodsaver style to small chamber vacs from other companies.
We run a small butcher shop out of our barn exclusively for our own animals and a few deer here and there for friends and family, and purchasing units for several times the price of this unit (even used) wasn't in the cards. Prior to purchasing this unit, sealing was the choke point of our process.
Since purchasing this unit, our sealing process is at least 50% faster, and I can't remember a single package that we've taken out of the freezer that has not stayed sealed - which is simply not the case for any other unit we've ever used.
So far we've used this unit for half a dozen hogs, two lambs, two deer, and at least 100 rabbits and chickens without a single issue.
We also have two vevor sausage stuffers, and a vevor deli slicer and we've had great luck across the board.
Only complaint was the bottlen of vacuum pump oil that comes in the package didn't quite have enough oil to fill the unit, but we had purchased a bottle expecting it to come empty, so it all worked out.
If you do your own butchering, this unit is easily the best option we've come across and we highly recommend it.
