Zevro Vac 'n Save Ruby Bowl-Shaped Vacuum-Sealing Food-Storage Containers

We're always on the lookout for storing leftovers from a BBQ, party, or just dinners where the kids don't eat. These 3 polypropylene food-storage containers in 2/9-liter, 1/2-liter, and 1-liter sizes work with a handheld vacuum pump that removes moisture and air to lock in freshness. The high-resistance silicone gaskets provide airtight seal with snap-down side buckles. The best feature? They nest for convenient storing.

Sure we don't feature many large appliances or restaurant grade stuff, but this dishwasher for a commercial kitchen has it all and really impresses. From top mounted controls to standard 20x20 inch racks it even has a deep-well scrap basket located on front of machine.
