I purchased a cabelas proffessional model about ten years ago for $399.
Sure looks likeca weston to me. I sucked too much liquid down it and it finally crapped out. I replaced it with a food saver 4800 series for $169. They are different prices and different model numbers depending on what package you choose but all start with 48. I have iused the new one quite a bit since purchasing and I am much more pleased with it than the more expensive model.
It will seal my cabelas bags which is great as I just brought in a large supply just before my old one crapped out. I like the ability of using the rolls. In fairness I have not put it to the test of all day use. The most I have done with it is about thirty items at one time.
Time will tell.
The nice thing with that cabelas machine, if you still have it, is that every part is available online so you can rebuild it.
