8 Space Saver Bags, No Vacuum Needed, Roll-Up Compression Packing, Travel Essentials, For Suitcases

Great product…

Wow! Very impressed! Bag works great without having to order a separate compressor. Very excited to use for my travel.

These bags are pretty good. I bought them to consolidate space in my suitcase for an international trip. It can be difficult to get the air out of them, even when rolling as it shows. If you have too much in the bag, you can't really roll it and you just have to push on it near the bottom. There are little tiny micro-holes in the bottom edge and that is where the air escapes from.You zip it shut like a Zip-loc bag, but the white plastic tab you zip with falls off easily. I've already lost a couple of them on the first use! It's nice that they are removable so you can borrow them from another bag to close it, but it's also a bummer that you can loose them so easily.They are fairly easy to push out most of the air, but to really get all the air out and do a tight compression to fit more items, you'll need a large boyfriend to lay on it for you, haha. He did a way better job than I could!This has 2 different size options, and the large ones are quite a bit larger than I expected. I will be able to use them to store blankets at home too! A word of caution when packing for flying: when you compress your stuff really well to fit more, you run the risk of going over the weight limit for baggage on planes. Be sure to check the weight limits for your airline and weigh your bag before you go just in case! I thought of that at the last minute and found that my bag was a bit too heavy so I quickly made the decision to ditch more items. When I got to the airport it was about 1-2 pounds overweight, but they didn't charge for it because it was so close.

About me: I travel for business frequently. I do not check bags. Ever. I hate arriving early at the airport to check bags. I hate standing in line. I hate waiting for my checked bags at the baggage carousels. I hate baggage fees. The one time that I checked bags, my luggage got lost. I’ve witnessed baggage handlers stand around as luggage fell onto the tarmac. I’ve seen musical instruments thrown. No thank you.I went to France for 8 days with only a large diaper bag and packing cubes, because diaper bags don’t get checked. That’s how serious I am about not checking luggage.-About 4 months ago, I upgraded from the awkward, heavy diaper bag to a Paris Travel Pro. It has 2 wheels and slides under many plane seats and also seats at conferences.-Packing space is lost to two wheels, a stiff frame, and a telescoping handle.-Without the vacuum bags, but with packing cubes, I can fit about 3 panties, 2 thin, tight tee-shirt dresses, a kuel micro-thin rain coat, thin cardigan, 2 bras, 2 pairs of woolford tights, a tee shirt, 1 pair of leggings, 3 pairs of socks, makeup, note pad, pens, 2 phones and accessories, wallet, and keys.It’s tight. Every bit of space is used.-with the vacuum bags, without trying very hard, I fit: 3 tee shirts, 3 thick long-underwear shirts, 6 pairs of panties, 2 athleisure pants, 2 thick long underwear leggings, 8 pairs of socks, 1 pair of Woolford tights, 1 1/2 slip, 1 bra, 4 camisoles, 1 short Calvin Klein dress. To minimize wrinkling, I rolled up my clothes into a large bundle and slid them into a large vacuum bag. I had room to reach into the bag and reshape the roll. I pushed a lot of air out of the zip-lock side and squeezed the bag flat by hugging and sitting on it. I pushed it into my luggage to get the bundle into the right shape. I could have made the bundle smaller but I sacrificed space for fewer wrinkles. I then fit my old dell laptop, cords, 2 phones and accessories, makeup, a small coat, wallet, and keys into the Travel Pro-I’m pleased by the additional packing capability.I’m going to Manhattan for a week in winter. I think with the vacuum bags, I’m going to be fine.

the bags work as advertised. good for clothes, jackets, blankets, small pillows. the clips dont work well, but are also not needed. i ended up tossing the clips and closing the bags by hand. easy to get rid of air, no pump needed as advertised. worth it for packing luggage or for condensing any type of linen with limited space. the opening and closing can be a bit cumbersome if you are using for repeated use. but if your storing for some time and not having to open all the time, they are definitely worth the money.

I was unsure about these based on mixed reviews, but they worked great. I followed directions for removing air and then slowly sat on the bags to force the excess out. In the course of a two week trip, they were opened and closed repeatedly and the seal kept working. I found that sitting on them on a soft surface (bed) vs a hard chair, achieved more compression. I was able to organize my multi-hotel stay by placing items for each segment in a separate bag. I also took a spare for dirty items that I would not be wearing again on the trip.

I recently bought these and I'm upset that it took me so long! I travel (fly) to my friend's condo regularly and only pack a 'weekender-type' bag. I used these for the first time and they are an absolute space saver! Easy to use. Stayed compressed. Bags fit alot! No complaints.
