I put my prawns in a plastic container with wax paper to hold them in and seal them in my VP215I use a VP215 (and have used it heavily for about 10 years now). 4 ml bags and also do retort bags for canning tuna using a pressure cooker.
Good tip when packaging spot prawns is to first wrap them in wax paper to keep them from puncturing the bag.

I have a 215 and it has never failed me in about 10 years.
Did they ship to Canada?Thanks for the information. Ordered one came to$1202 Canadian vs almost $2000 from Canadian supplier.
Which Vevor did you end up ordering and how have you liked it? I am looking at one of the DZ 260C models. Looks to do the same job as the VP 215 but at about 1/3 the price here in Canada.I wanted a vp215 but the price kept scaring me away. I ended up buying a chamber sealer from Vevor which was just over $400 shipped, cheaper than almost anything out there. It takes oil. It can only do 10 inch seals but it works really great. I like the 4mil bags. I bought some from Halfords and Cedarlane Culinary , but now the border is more open, I will probably order from the USA as 4mil is easier to find there. A bigger machine would be nice but this thing is already kind of a beast. I love that I can freeze stews and soups, crab/prawn bait( fish guts), just hard to do anything over 10 inches.
