I need one I can leave under my fish fillet table outside but it won't be subject to any rain/water.

If I bought another it would be a cabellas brand.

I have the foodsaver gamesaver but there are things I don't like. It waste to much bag on ever seal, you can control the first seal when making bags but the final seal there is way to much waste. It will get hot and shut down when making a lot of seals quickly. I would look at the cabela's best unit, looks very well built two pumps and they run it on sale often. Foodsaver will work with you they sent me a replacement unit but not much better then the one it replaced. My first foodsave I had was a older unit my parents gave me it was a much better unit with a very strong pump the newer ones are not nearly as good.
