I guess I'm wondering about
getting the Italian' (flaem's) company's current offering -- the Magic
Vac..
Anyone have one of their current models and like it (or not)?


I'd consider one. They are approved by Federazione Italiana Cuochi so they
must be good

I was trying to weed my way through their site as well.. I was able to get
into their e-store, but didn't see prices.. But then again, I don't speak or
read I-talian..

Aside from Ebay, do you know of any US sources? Flaem's web site does not
give distributors or dealers.

I found several places on the web that appear to be selling the MagicVac Maxima
model including the following :

http://www.profmarket.com/maxima.htm (in Washington state)
http://kodiakhealth.com/catalog/prod...oducts_id/2681 (in Idaho)

It seems to go for about $300 give or take.. The thing that bothers me is that
some of the sites have REALLY old pictures of this unit that no longer match
the pic on the Italian site -- I'd want to make sure that they're not selling
old stock or something. I believe the KodiakHealth site above seems to have the
same photo that the Italian site has when I checked yesterday. YMMV.
