I brought this so can travel boy am I'm glad I purchased this. Easy to used bags were very big and durable.

I think it's worth buying for sure. I wish the vacuum was a little stronger. It definitely get the job done. Don't over pack the bags for the best results.

i felt like there weren't enough good reviews but these worked very well for me, and were very affordable for the price. i have a thing where if i wash something and put it away for storage, in my head it won't be clean when im ready to use it, which is why i bought these. i'm no longer using my winter blankets and wanted to put them away however i do not really have any place for them which is why i looked into something like these bags. luckily they worked very very well. i didn't expect them to shrink into the size they did. overall i really like these. i'd definitely buy them again if i needed them for moving or extra storage. i have a cordless vacuum and a regular plug in vacuum, the plug in worked to get the air out and the cordless did not at all, so something to keep in mind! instructions are very easy.

I purchased these jumbo bags to transport my blankets, clothes, and stuffed animals during a cross country move. Out of the 7 bags, 1 tore and was unusable- so be mindful about delicately opening them. I decided to vacuum seal 4 bags four weeks before moving. I saved the last 2 for bedding and clothes I intended to utilize until the last minute. The day of moving is when I sealed the final 2 bags. // once they were unpacked from the moving truck, 3 bags had lost their seal. (It is unclear at this time if there are any tears or if the seal simply didn't hold) However, in spite of them not staying sealed, they still kept the items more compact than had I not used the bags at all. During the four weeks of storage, they all held the seal. Of the bags that lost the seal during the move, 2 were packed a month prior and 1 was packed the day of the move.

Ultimately, I am glad I made this purchase. The amount of space saved was overall beneficial. I feel that if you are very careful to open them and store them in a stationary and temperature controlled environment, they should mostly work as advertised. (Instructions say you will need to periodically vacuum seal them even when stored properly.)

I used these to reduce my winter bedding to save space in the linen closet. They worked brilliantly. It took a little longer to suck the air out than I expected, but they worked fine held a good seal so far (a week), and best of all didn't have a bad plastic smell. I did put dryer sheets in with the quilts however. I don't know if I would use them for coats or other clothing because I am afraid it would emerge very wrinkly if stored for any length of time. They are an A+ space saver.
