Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)These are pretty impressive when you see the vacuum cleaner sucking all the air out of the bag, saving you all that space.
But in practice, about half of the bags have holes in them, and the air gradually gets back in by the time you arrive at your destination.I bought about 10 of these for moving a ton of clothes overseas recently, and when we arrived about half had expanded again.
In defense of this product, however:
1.This may not be because of a manufacturer's defect so much as that the unavoidable jostling of other items in your luggage during flight is probably going to pop a hole in the bag.[Some were confirmed to be manufacturer's defects, however.]Be that as it may, from your point of view it doesn't matter where the hole comes from.
2.Hole or no hole, they still might do the job for you, since the air comes back in gradually.Simply suck all the air out, pack your luggage and close it, since it's unlikely disaster would ensue should the bag expand while your suitcase is closed.
A final warning:you might think you're saving space by using these.And so you are.But that invariably tempts you to load your luggage past the weight limit and hence incur the attendant fees, leading me to question whether saving money can really be considered an advantage of this product.

Product Description:
Designed for travel or at-home storage, this set of three large vacuum-seal bags helps create extra space by removing the air from bulky or seasonal items. To use, simply pack the items to be stored, zip up the bag using the easy-to-seal Sure-Zip slider, and remove the air by either rolling out the air toward the bottom, expelling air through the one-way valve, or using a household vacuum cleaner (any standard vacuum-cleaner hose will work). The durable multi-layer bags not only compress items for more compact storage, but they also create an airtight seal for ultimate protection from dirt, moisture, mildew, bugs, and odors. The bags take up very little space and can be stored away in a closet, garage, or basement--worry-free. Each reusable bag measures 21-1/2 by 33-1/2 inches.
