Welcome aboard, Scott! IMHO what problem you are experiencing is more with the freezer bags AND the machine. If you are accustomed to using a Food Saver along with their proprietary channel bags those are easy to get an excellent tight seal. Otherwise the non-channeled material tends to collapse the bags up close. That is not always bad – for instance I frequently will reseal potato chips, snacks and cookies with my snorkel machine as it keeps from crushing the contents. Otherwise it takes a little practice.
