I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect small space chamber vacuum sealer for years. Unfortunately, most of the units on the market are clunky, heavy, and mainly built for commercial use. And honestly, they’re a bit of an eyesore.

Chamber vacuum technology picks up where the standard, suction-type vacuum sealers begin to fall short. A typical suction vacuum sealer doesn’t allow you to vacuum package liquids so for this reason, I’ve been recommending the water displacement method or mason jars for Sous Weed purposes. Chamber vacuum sealers are a proven technology used for many years in the commercial packaging industry.

The team at Avid Armor has created a beautifully designed, space-saving chamber vacuum system that sits nicely on a countertop and tucks away easily in a cabinet. The Avid Armor Ultra Series USV20 Chamber Vacuum Sealer System is made to create a maximum level of vacuum when sealing all types of food, but also excels at effectively vacuum sealing any liquid or liquid rich food. Everything from your Sous Weed cannabis infusions, soups, sauces, and marinades to your favorite infused cocktail.

This machine is sleek and well-constructed. The tempered glass lid is a really premium addition compared to the competitors on the market that use plastic. Like most chamber vacuums, it is quite loud when in action but my 6-month-old baby was able to sleep through it as I sealed all this meat for our freezer.

I’m stoked to finally own a chamber vacuum that fits into my small kitchen with limited storage space. Stay tuned, I’ll be sharing how I use this tool to infuse my meals in the coming months!
