Buying guide

Vacuum Drawers: what to know before you buy

Types of vacuum sealer

  • Vacuum drawers: a slim drawer, about 14cm tall, built in below a compact appliance such as a steam oven or coffee machine.
  • Handleless vacuum drawers: a push-to-open version for kitchens where the appliances above have no handles.
  • Pop-up worktop sealers: fitted into the worktop; they rise up for use and drop back down flush when you're finished.

What a vacuum drawer is for

  • Sous vide: bag up meat, fish or vegetables and cook them low and slow in a steam oven. Browse steam cooking.
  • Marinating: under vacuum, flavours soak into food in a fraction of the time.
  • Storing and portioning: vacuum-packed food stays fresh for longer, whether chilled or frozen, and packs down smaller.
  • Resealing: on some models you can close opened bags again or empty the air from reusable vacuum containers.

Making the choice

Vacuum levels and bag size

Soft or delicate food needs a lighter vacuum, so compare how many strength settings each drawer has. Check the biggest bag the chamber accepts as well, particularly if you like to seal whole joints or large fillets of fish.

Matching the column

These drawers usually sit at the bottom of a stack, so choose the appliance above first. Ranges with a matching vacuum drawer include Fisher & Paykel's Series 9 Contemporary and Minimal styles, Miele's ArtLine and VitroLine fronts, AEG's 9000 Series and Smeg's Dolce Stil Novo. Stay in the same family for matching glass, handles and lines.

Drawer or worktop sealer?

A drawer is worth the space if you seal food every week, whether for sous vide, bulk buying or batch cooking. For occasional use, a pop-up sealer in the worktop keeps the housing free for another appliance.

Before you order

  • Measure the niche as one space for both the drawer and whatever sits on top of it.
  • Check the bags. The product page lists which bag sizes each drawer takes; order some with it so you can start straight away.
  • Match the finish to the appliance above.
  • For a worktop sealer, check the cut-out and the depth it needs underneath, and mark its spot with your kitchen fitter before anyone cuts the worktop.

Questions

Vacuum Drawers: your questions answered

What is sous vide?

Food is sealed in a bag and cooked gently at a carefully controlled temperature, in a steam oven or water bath. The result is even cooking and moist, tender food.

Is a steam oven essential?

Not at all. The drawer seals food for the fridge, freezer and marinades on its own. Sous vide itself needs either a steam oven with that setting or a water bath.

What bags does it use?

Vacuum bags sized for the chamber. The product page lists the sizes each model takes.

Vacuum drawer or pop-up sealer: what's the difference?

The drawer lives in a housing under another appliance and pulls out for use. The pop-up sealer is sunk into the worktop and lifts up when you need it.

Is it worth having if I don't cook sous vide?

Often, yes. Freezer portions, speedy marinades and longer-lasting leftovers are everyday jobs that don't need a special oven.

Can it seal liquids?

Because the whole bag sits inside a chamber, these drawers handle marinades and wet ingredients better than hand-held sealers. Choose a low setting, leave room at the top of the bag and follow the product page's guidance.
