will this work for freezing foods as well?

I have not had any luck freezing food in these bags. Great for cold cuts and cheeese.

Yes! The bags hold for enough for the freezer, I have frozen almost anything on the bags.

Sure. We just use ours as a fridge currently. You have the ability to make it cold enough to be a fridge or a freezer, but not both at the same time as it does not have a separate freezer compartment. You would have to use it as one or the other. Freezes great! We have used it both ways

Never tried it on frozen food. I use the hand blender to mix cake batter and blend beans on the stove.

This works like it is advertised for water. It get gold here and I have never had my pets water freeze. I think it would work food if it isn't too thick/deep, if you use canned food. I wish I knew for sure, but I don't have any to experiment today, as it is in the teens right now.

If you go slow it works well for cold meat, I haven't tried frozen. It's not that strong a motor so you would probably want a stronger one, or thaw the meat a little first.

No, these bags just fold shut. Since there is no air-tight seal or actual closure, I would not recommend using these bags to freeze food.

Yes, I've done it several times and had no problems. It works great to take food from freezer to fridge to use the next day. They also said freezer safe on package.

I have used them to freeze leftovers. As long as there is enough room left for the contents to expand when frozen, it should be fine.

T/here are no specifications in the text. I guess I would not use it in the freezer as I am convinced it would devastate the instrument. Now if you want to keep tabs on humidity and temp in your fridge. I would imagine it would handle that ok.

yes - it would if you don't need a separate freezer compartment. It is a single compartment that can be set to work as a refrigerator or freezer. seems to work fine, but with a somewhat large temperature range of control - maybe plus or minus 5 or more degrees F.

I would say no. I use old ice cream buckets for that. I don't think they are made for the freezer.

Absolutely. We travel from Pa to Fla in a Cadillac SRX and use this freezer to bring our meat. It will freeze to "zero" while traveling. When we stay for the night we unplug the freezer from the 12v power plug and it remains frozen overnight only warming to 18 degrees by the next morning. Have also used it to bring frozen buffalo from Wyoming with the same excellent results. Enjoy.

you'll need a food Saver sealing machine, that seals and sucks the air out of the bags before freezing. I guess if you are windy enough you might be able to suck the air out.

Yes this would work for that however I don't think it is NSF approved which all food storage items have to be for any commercial operation. If this is just for home use I would leave it up to you. It is pretty large be sure to check the dimensions so you know.

I would imagine so if you have the special attachment lids for the jars. HOWEVER, as an avid canner myself, I would NOT recommend sealing jars of food in this fashion. The hot water bath and/or pressure canning systems do more than merely seal the jars. They kill microbes that would otherwise destroy the food and/or make people ill. This is a good unit for saving leftovers, splitting up frozen foods into smaller quantities, and preserving dried foods. I, personally, would not use it for long-term storage of fresh or wet foods.

I wouldn't recommend it. The coating seems more like a polyurethane glaze and, unless it was submerged in the stuff, I doubt that the metal is impervious to the cold and moisture in a freezer. I would recommend something made of rubber, coated with an epoxy substance or a freezer-suitable plastic for such use.
