An even bigger plus is that with the foodsaver I always had to worry about making sure all of the air came out of the bag when cooking Sous Vide. With moist ingredients you could not draw a hard vacuum for fear liquid would get out. Thus some air bubbles were left behind and the bags floated. With the chamber vac design the air is drawn out leaving nothing to really float the bag except the natural buoyancy of the material being sealed.
I can fill up a dozen bags of food and then seal them one right after the other without any worries about overheating. With the foodsaver I would have to fill a bag, seal it, then wait for a few minutes for it to cool down. If not, it would get very hot to the touch after a few bags and then would not draw a vacuum or it would start having issues sealing until it cooled down again.
A final plus I will list is that I like to share my cooking. Giving someone a vacuum bag with the grid lines it is hard to tell exactly what is inside due to the texture of the plastic. Some people might be a little leery of opening the bag let alone eat it. With the Vacmaster bags, you can see everything inside in full glory. It actually makes things look great to eat right out of the bag. Compress some watermelon and you will see what I mean.
Pros: It works, great. It looks like a tank and built like one. Simple to operate, and clean.
Cons: Size, and weight. Its not as simple as tossing this in a closet like some would do with a traditional sealer unit. Its also not exactly portable. I have a cart dedicated to rolling it around the kitchen and storage when needed.

This thing works amazing. It's fast, simple, and quiet. Plenty of space for sealing servings for a family of 4. The double bag seal is excellent, just make sure the bag sits perfectly flat on the seal bar for a perfect seal. If you see crinkles on the edge after sealing, it will most likely leak. It's expensive, but is worth it. Now we plan on doing some sous vide cooking.

Amazon's delivery was terrible and cost me money. They missed their "Guaranteed Delivery Date", twice. Because a signature was required, I took time off work both days only to learn it wasn't delivered and no notice was provided. Having to reschedule work, I could not be available on the third delivery day, I called Amazon and they assured me it would not be delivered on that day. To my surprise, on the agreed-to 'do not deliver' day, it was delivered first thing in the morning and was left on the front step, outside, unprotected without a signature. Having received the 'your item has been delivered' email, I had to make a call to a courier and pay a premium to have the item retrieved. I ended up being out 2 days of work and pay for premium courier charges [~$200]. Amazon dropped the ball on this one.
The oil pump of the 215 is amazingly quiet, almost half of the volume of my FoodSaver unit. It requires occasional oil changes but it is much better for those in humid areas than the dry pump of the 112. It is also better if you plan to do longer sealing sessions such as processing a lot of fish/game. You can keep going with the 215 while the 112 might need to cool down occasionally. The 215 is also slightly faster than the 112S
The height of the 112S with the lid open is about 12 inches. The 215 is about 24" tall with the lid open so it requires a lot more clearance which is the major downside to the 215.
The 112S weighs around 46 lbs while the 215 weighs 84 lbs. If you are looking for a unit that you can store and bring out when needed, the 112S is for you. I personally bought a little 3 shelf rolling cart that I put my 215 onto. This allows me to easily move it around if needed
With the 215 you can order spare parts including the pump, motor, electronics, filters etc. From what I have seen with the 112S you cannot so it is not "user" serviceable, you will have to pay to send it in for repair. My 215 included wires to repair the seal bar should it ever wear out. It is possible to do the same with the 112S but I do not know if it includes a spare wire or not. If the seal bar on food saver or seal a meal sealers ever goes you you have to buy an entire new machine.
I love my 215 and I have barely used it so far. The ability to seal liquids as well as the cheaper bags is a huge boon over suction sealers.
