 No Useful Life. May 28, 2007

No gurantee. Manufacturer will not stand behind product. Purchased few years ago. Product imploded upon initial test. Manual does suggest nor warn user that over pumping the pump to create the vacum can cause the plastic container to break (implode). The product itself does not offer enough resistance nor give indications when to stop extracting air to form the vacum inside to marinate the meat. Contacted manufacturer for replacement. Manufactuer refused to replace product while it was still new. Never had a chance to test product on meat. Spent over $30 (probably close to $40). I would not give this product any stars. But I'm forced to give it at least one star. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT! SAVE YOUR MONEY! No matter how favorable the reviews. If the product does not last and the manufacturer does not stand behind what it sells, the product is USELESS.

Great product. Strong and robust, I have had meat marinating for several days and the vacuum remains strong. Hasn't improved my cooking any, but the marinade part works great.

I had one of these for 4-5 years and it worked great week after week, then it cracked. After tht amount of time it was a no brainer, I was a believer and ordered a new one. It was the same model I had all those years and it ended up cracking like the 3rd time I used it. Too bad it was an excellent product at one time, but way too pricy to give another try.
Flavors the meat fast November 29, 2006

This new larger and stronger model works even better than the discontinued one. The larger size will hold roasts and the larger pump pulls the air out faster. The marinater works great: The flavors of the marinade taste fresher and things like lemon zest really sing. It really speeds up the marinating and tenderizing process.
I found the lid hard to remove because the suction was so strong, but pulling out the whole stopper helps it come right off. The container and lid are very strong and durable, so the problems of the older model have been eliminated. This Instant Marinater is a great timesaver in the home and for the outdoor BBQ.
BUY IT ! , WE USE THEM this must be the new and improved model September 17, 2006

The wife and i have been using the older version of this new and improved model for years. I am writing this now because I came to amazon to re-order several to replace our esisting that eventually failed after years of use, hot dishwasher cleaning etc.. I would re-order even if they had not improved the design..they are that good ! THE ONLY PROBLEM experienced with the old one was, that they would develope a crack in the bottom of the base, (again) after much use // we love their 'rapid ice' drink can and wine coolers we use them to slightly chill pinots and merlots from room temp to slightly chilled in minutes !
