I’m pleased to have come across this item. I bought a few bags including a couple of the “other”, to compare for myself. My conclusions: quality is a noticeably better upon first impression…bag feels sturdier, screw on cap vs “pop-on;” price is most certainly better, yet the previously mentioned problems with these bags are the same. I did find a leak…nevertheless, at least I didn’t pay twice as much as I might have if I bought the “other.” Honey-Can-Do is definitely a better offer…. By the way, I did notice a marked vacuum improvement using my hand-vac, vs upright…both which have 12amps of power. Probably, because I use handvac less regularly…for stairs and such.

So far these bags are holding the seal, but when they first arrived I was shocked at how small they were. If these are supposed to be medium and large, I cannot imagine what the manufacturer expects you to put in a small. I was only able to put two (2) regular pillows in the large, when I was hoping to store a comforter. It would have been helpful if the description had included the dimensions instead of what I perceive as misleading generic terms such as medium and large. Hence I will include dimensions here. The actual storage area of the large is 20″ x 27″ and the medium is 16″ x 17″.

I had tried these space bags years ago and they leaked and did not hold the vacuum…But I thought, ok, it has been several years now, certainly they have improved the product…wrong!!…within 30 minutes of putting my sweaters in a bag for the summer, the vacuum was gone…I would not recommend these type bags at all, they are simply not worth the money…

Did as promised. I know that others were upset by the size, but It met my expectations. The extra large are the best buy for the money! I pack away clothing that my kids have out grown. It really saves quite a bit of space.

Not a bad item, it actually worked very well. It certainly saves you space. And let’s face it, that’s the most important thing when you buy these. However, there are a few things that are not all that great; the cap meant to close the air lock when you turn off the vacuum stinks. There are a few seconds when air is certain to leak out because you need make a switch from vacuum tube to the cap. Even when you frantically twist on the cap as fast as you can, you are going to lose that tight vacuum seal. That could have been better, perhaps with a snap on cap for fast closure. Also, the sizing is fairly small and you can’t fit much in the bag. It only occurred to me after the fact that no dimensions were disclosed in the description it just says “medium” and “large”. In order to fit anything big, you’d probably need the XL size which is sold seperately. That aside, I’d probably get these again, they were much better quality than the brand you see sold at major stores.
