Tight Vac 12 Liter 1 Oz Mini Vac Storage Container

Description

Introducing the Tight Vac 12 Liter 1 Oz Mini Vac Storage Container, a practical solution for keeping your items fresh and protected. This patented partial vacuum-sealed storage container offers several benefits, although the marketing may contain some exaggerated claims. Here’s a breakdown of the key points:

Vacuum Sealing: While the Tight Vac creates a partial vacuum by removing the same volume of air as the cap, it is not a complete vacuum. The partial vacuum created is sufficient for most goods to remain fresh and edible for extended periods. It’s important to note that the container does not vacuum out all oxygen, as some oxygen will still remain inside.

Smell Proof: The Tightvac system effectively preserves goods by allowing them to breathe and degas. Most food items are smell-proof inside the container, but certain products like freshly roasted coffee and medical herbs may release their odor. The 2-way valve allows gas build-up to escape gradually without allowing oxygen in. For sticky and smelly substances, it’s recommended to use a strong zip lock bag inside the container to contain the smell and keep the areas where the body and cap meet clean.

Moisture and Oxygen: The Tightvac patented system effectively keeps moisture and oxygen out of the container, provided that the cap remains on. However, it’s important to remember that when the cap is removed, the container allows oxygen to enter. The marketing language may give the impression of an oxygen-free environment, but the container does contain oxygen.

Durability: The Vacs are made with strong NSF and FDA-approved PS #6 plastic, ensuring their durability during shipping and handling. If your Vac arrives damaged, it’s recommended to report it immediately for a replacement.

Cap Fitting: Different sizes and styles of Vacs may have slightly looser or tighter fitting caps. The functionality of the cap is not determined by its tightness, and loose caps function just as effectively. Caps may tighten over time and with regular use.

Cleaning: The Vacs should be hand-washed using mild or natural cleaners. They should not be microwaved or put in the dishwasher. Keeping the interior of the cap and the top of the container clean ensures easy opening and closure.

While the Tight Vac 12 Liter 1 Oz Mini Vac Storage Container is made in China, it still offers great value, durability, and an effective storage solution. It may not fully meet all the marketing claims, but it remains a reliable choice for bulk storage at an affordable price.
