Spacesaver Premium Vacuum Storage Bags. 80% More Storage. Hand-Pump for Travel. Vacuum Sealer Bag with Double-Zip Seal and Triple Seal Turbo-Valve for Max Space Saving in a storage bag (Jumbo 10 Pack)
Really spacious, I fit two single duvets easily in one (with a little room to spare) and 4 standard size pillows plus a couple of smaller pillows in another.
Very good quality, I didnt use the hand pump though I used a hoover.
Wish I’d bought these earlier, the size is just as stated , just what I needed and the pump – well it’s such a bonus as when I go abroad I’m not looking for a vacuum . Love them and will be buying different sizes too!
The product itself does exactly what it says it does!
I recently had a problem with one of the bags re-inflating. I contacted customer service who responded to me very quickly and once they had the details of the problem immediately dealt with it in a highly professional manner.
These bags are easy to use and store lots of clothing . I have stored lots of bath towels and sheets and bedding duvet and pillows . They are great for most things . Thoroughly recommend .
Put all our babies clothes in to one large bag, they grew out of so many clothes and this was a great way to store them and not have too much space taken up.
The hand pump is great too if you don’t want to get the vaccuum out and disturb a sleeping baby.
These are really good at staying sealed, however when I opened one yesterday to reorganise my clothes into categories that suited me, the clothes were really creased and I had to iron with more than usual pressure to get rid of the creases caused by the vacuum. Call me stupid, but I genuinely thought that once the air got into the garments they would ‘reinflate’ to what they were before they were placed in the bags and vacuumed: they didn’t. My advice is to not reduce the bag to its minimum size; take into account the type of fabric you are storing especially if the fabric is delicate, as you may have to iron later to reshape the garment and the fabric could be overstretched depending on the creasing level. Bedding would be okay for extra ironing pressure: if required. Lesson learned. The bags are of good quality, do the job as intended and will not reinflate with air until opened again, as long as you follow the instructions. You should also manually press along the two top strip sections of the bag to ensure they are properly clicked together, then use the little clip to ensure it is fully sealed as per instructions.
Bought to pack away my daughter’s Uni duvet and bedding and extras that won’t be needed till she heads back in autumn. Absolutely brilliant. Super easy to use – the hand pump actually creates a better vacuum than my vacuum cleaner. A fabulous buy!
I purchased these bags and after using them I have so much space in my draws now. So easy to use. I had an issue and contacted the sellers and they resolved the issue immediately without any question which I found amazing. The package comes in various sizes which helps. It squeezed my duvet flat so now instead of a duvet occupying a whole draw I can fit many items on top of the packed away duvet. Highly recommended
Have purchased quite a few of these in the past and never had a problem. I noticed some have said they leak air back in, but i have never had a problem with them
Would always buy only these space saver bags as have tried other brands & none stay as they should ONLY these ones work.
Company very good as always get them early or by date expected
I have only used a couple of them one I have put my sons old teddies in, I used one of the jumbo sizes and it’s brilliant. The other one was a large and they are working great. Going on holiday soon and going to use some efor then. But would definitely recommend.
well these are pretty good – packed three so far – these are the jumbo plus size
packing some super-king bedding – the mid weight duvet fitted easily and worked well
the 13.5 tog high volume duvet took a bit of squeezing into the bag, but once in shrunk to proabaly less than 20% of its origninal volume.
nice quality – they won’t last for ever but should last a couple of uses or more – so pretty pleased and would recommend
Excellent space-saving bags. Bought jumbo size ones and was able to fit double duvet in one of the bags perfectly. Shrunk amazingly flat. Perfect for camper-van use. Easy to use with vacuum cleaner. Suspect hand pump would be hard-going but not tried yet. Will definitely buy more for storing winter clothes etc. Great that they can be re-used multiple times, as long as the zippers/closings hold out!
Purchased a second lot as so good. I was moving home and a great way to move my clothes, whilst keeping them dry and clean. Clothes easier to store whilst in these. Great for my spare bedding, towels and out of season clothes.
Very good. Heavy grade tough plastic bags, big enough to reduce volume for storage in the loft and thick and secure enough to deter mice. 2 of the 10 bags supplied had a crack in the plastic. Dyson vacuums have a tool clip on the hoses that doesn’t allow the end of the nozzle to lie flat so don’t work – so Dyson owners will need to employ a bit of pump action. Fortunately they worked fine with a Henry and the Miele. They don’t reduce weight of course, so be careful you don’t pack things so they are too heavy to lift safely. Better quality than ones I bought previously. I will by these again.
I have just bought a second pack of these as I easily filled the first 8. When you see how small something bulky like pillows and duvets packs down to, you can’t wait to find something else to test it out. I had a double duvet in a large stacker box and it was as flat as a pancake in a space saver bag. Some clothes don’t pack down very small unless they are thick to start with and the packs can be deceptively heavy. You can press the hose from a Hoover over the valve and suck most of the air out and then use the pump included to remove the last bit. It is best to smooth the back out a bit as you go to keep it as flat as possible. I haven’t yet unpacked a bag but expect clothes to be very creased.
My daughter was sceptical about it, i packed all their suitcases they going to south Africa with kids lots off presents and 2 kids. They were happy with the bags easy yo use!
Brilliant product I went for the jumbo size to fit all winter clothing in and amazed by how much you can get in them .
Money well spent and great quality .
Have many left over to use when switching from winter to summer quilts !
Would highly recommend
I was on holiday/vacation in Ireland with full suitcases. These vacuum sealed bags allowed me to satisfy my shopping addiction. I strongly recommend these. Please note The large bags are more than enough for my large suitcase, but unknowingly purchased jumbo bags.
There was nothing not to like , as they say it does what it says on the tin ; easy to use , l used mine to pack away clothes not in use to make room in my wardrobe Thanks would recommend!
Very useful space saving storage bags. Unfortunately the supplied pump didnt work. I didnt raise this issue as my vaccuum cleaner achieved the desired result, so wasnt a problem for me.
The bags seem to be good quality and are the size advertised. I bought the large ones which i think are probably a bit big for travelling with but they are ideal for under bed or loft storage. Not tried the pump yet but i’m not really bothered if it works or not because i will just use the vacuum anyway.
Needed smaller vacuum bags to fit into a cabin sized suitcase. These work well as long as not overfilled so that the end can be folded over. Tried one out a few days ago and no sign of air leaking in. The hand pump that comes with the pack is as good (if not better) than a small electric pump I had also bought. It is also lightweight so not a problem to pack in the case for the return journey. I expect some of the contents will be creased when I get them out but with ski gear I am not too worried about that. I would recommend giving these a try.
These bags are good. I’ve used them before but it seems every pack I’ve bought has a broken bag that won’t stay delafted. Bit disappointed to be honest. I can’t seem to find a way to contact anyone for a replacement bag. If it was easier to get a replacement id give it 5 stars. But if I can’t replace that bag (and any others that maybe broke) then its a 1*. If they don’t work then its a waste of money. If things change ill update my review
Update i found an email on the website. They responded very quickly and sent out a replacement. I think ill stick to these in future. Very good customer service
These Vacuum packed bags were great for storing away summer clothes and it was very easy to use.
Every bag was enormous and it had enough space to fit in a lot of clothes. Once packed and sealed you just open the cap and suck all the air out. Its as easy as that. Once finished if you hear air coming out its prob your seal isnt zipped up well enough or the little rubbery mould has been misaligned. Align the rubbery mould and the air should stop and suck more air out.
Brilliant bags. Over time air would prob fill it back up but these have been the best vacuum bags i have used in a long time.
Good product, we used them to put cushions for outdoor furniture in so they go in the loft.
Quite difficult to connect the pump, and you need to make sure the seal is closed correctly.
I used for storing summer clothes, towels and bedsheets that would otherwise take lots of space. They were easy to pack in boxes for cargo, sending to the needy.
Was really apprehensive about this purchase, as an avid traveler I needed to find something to help with my space in the packing department. What I got was an easy to use, space saving answer.
The bags come in different sizes which were perfect for all of my clothes. Perfect for crease avoidance, once in and rolled tightly my clothes came out the otherside ready to hang.
If you’re looking for a product to help you take a few more other items then try this. I had space left over in my case once I had rolled out all up.
Awesome product easy to use and does exactly what they say they do.
Brilliant. We packed 8 pillows, 2 King size duvets, 2 sets of single duvets plus covers and 4 king size sheets into 5 jumbo bags. All stored ready for caravan next year.
These bags seem to be quite strong.
I’ve tried many other vaccuum bags for camping or for storing clothes or bedding, and these seem to be quite strong plastic compared to them which have either split, or got holes in after one use or the valves have failed and caused a nightmare when trying to pack up.
The only issue which is slight is that with the pump I found it took quite a long time to suck the air out of the bags, but with a hoover it was seconds. I would use the pump if I didn’t have access to electric or a hoover at any point though, so it’s nice to have the option.
I would definitely buy them again.
Out a pack of 10, I have only 4 that do not re-inflate in a matter of minutes. You can clearly hear the air escaping out the side ‘sealed’ seam so it’s not the top sliding zip or screw on valve that’s at fault.
The plastic itself feels thick but is in use, quite delicate. I had some of the bags re-inflate to full in the cupboard which meant pulling the top one out with a bit of effort as they now were totally stuffed in. It rubbed against the top of the shelf on the way out and got a split / hole (even though I was being careful).
My upright Dyson hose works with the valve. I’ve never used the pump. When the bag works, you know the bag works as the air shrinks the item down almost immediately. If you have a leak, the bag will start shrinking but much slower so you know something is wrong.
Getting a flat, even shrunk package is a bit of an art. Sometimes, the shrunken result takes up as much shelf space than the item folded would have.
Great for keeping dust and moths away when things go into storage. I will buy more but the fail rate is disappointing.
I bought these vacuum bags to store some valuable clothes in the attic, while also protecting them against dust and damage by moths. They work incredibly well for this and were quick and easy to use, and feature triple zip lock seals. The fact that they reduced the volume of the clothes by about half meant that you can pack much more into a smaller space – great for travel if you have unlimited weight on hand luggage ; )
I bought these for moving house as I normally end up packing everything in bin bags and hauling them around, however, this time will be different!
Firstly, the advert said this bag size was “10cm” which makes no sense, they are in fact 80 x 100cm which is a really ample size. So far I’ve packed 3 bags, one with a high tog/winter superking duvet (which fit in with plenty of space, probably could’ve packed a pillow in too), I’ve also packed (as shown in the photos) 1 x double duvet, 2 x pillows and 5 x cushions all into one bag, the third bag I fit 60 x t-shirts, 2 x jeans, 3 x shorts, 3 x PJs and still had a little room for more. Basically you can fit a lot into each bag, so 10 of them gives you plenty of packing space.
So far I’ve seen the main benefits come from packing duvets and pillows due to their high air content they give a great size reduction. Clothes go in great too, show a slight size compression, but I’ve found it most useful that in holds them tightly together as a solid block which make them easy to transport, stack or store.
The box comes with 10 bags, 12 slide shut clips and one pump. The bags are a good quality plastic, well sealed around the edges with a double seal top, their valve is also a good quality plastic, as are the clips and pump. The whole kit feels well made and I have confidence they will stay working long term (the lifetime guarantee helps support that too!).
All in all I’m happy with this purchase and would recommend for moving or storing bedding or clothes.
This is so useful! Usually storing bedding and duvets takes up space and doesn’t guarantee it stays dust free! These bags are durable, easy to use and shrinks everything down to a quarter of the normal size! I had a lot of fun doing it! The only downside is that it says on the instructions for shrinking the product that the opening where you would need to attach the Vacuum cleaner fits all sizes, however that isn’t true because it does not fit the Dyson. Luckily, I also have a Henry and that fitted perfectly.
Very straightforward principle, a sealed bag with a pump to suck out the air, allowing items to be stored in a more efficient space saving manner. I used mine to store a double quilt and 2 pillows. Bag size is more than adequate for such large items which now sit neatly stacked on a shelf in the airing cupboard. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to de-clutter a cupboard.
I bought a set of these bags 6 months ago. They are made of good quality plastic and have proved easy to use and very durable. They are easily deflated using the enclosed hand pump. I’ve used them to store clothes which do get pretty creased admittedly but a good session with an iron soon sorts this out. Perhaps the best thing has been the absolutely exceptional customer service I’ve received from this company. Shortly after purchasing one of the medium bags developed a small hole and wouldn’t deflate. I emailed the company one evening asking if it would be possible to receive a replacement under their lifetime guarantee. To my surprise later that evening I received a reply saying yes, no problem (around 10 pm!) An even bigger surprise was to receive an entire set of bags as a replacement, not just one bag to cover the defective one which was what I expected!!! So generous!!! I was so surprised that l had to contact the company again to check this wasn’t a mistake; it wasn’t!!! I think this is simply terrific service and would have no hesitation in recommending buying these bags from this company. I don’t think I’ve ever received such good service!!! My only request would be this, would it be possible to buy a set of the small bags on their own? It would be great if the company would consider/do this as not not all items requiring to be stored are huge.
I’ve used vacuum bags in the past (10 to 15 years ago) and more recently some less expensive bags from a popular high street household goods chain. They weren’t very good, and indeed the reviews of the latter from their own website agree.
These SpaceSaver bags, however, DO work! and I would highly recommend if you’re looking.
I’ve had them almost a week, and saved a tonne of space already. So far, no issues of reinflation or faulty bags but – even if there were – there’s a lifetime warranty / replacement!
As I haven’t had the bags in use for long, I will amend this review in the unlikely event of any issues occurring; So you will see if/that this review will stand testament to the quality having not been amended.
I purchased this whole box of Jumbo bags as they are about the same size of a 90L storage box (from above said high street chain, albeit these bags are flat). Being honest, I should have maybe gotten one of the SpaceSaver Variety Pack of sizes on offer instead as I wasn’t able to fill all the bags as they are just that huge haha. My fault there, though, but something to bear in mind (getting a variety pack of sizes) 🙂
Regards the actual space saving ability; It shrunk a 90L storage box full of clothing down to around 45% of it’s volume, and a sleep bag down to around 25%!
Second time I have bought these BIG excellent quality bags (not because the first I bought had any problems but my daughter came home from uni so needed more for all her storage!).
Easy to fill and great with the hand pump if you want to work the arm muscles (but easier with the vacuum 🙂 )
Will buy again if I need more which is more than likely!
I am so please with these bags. They really do save a lot of space in my wardrobe. I used the large bag to store a double quilt and medium for summer clothing. Very good product.
Brilliant….2nd time buying these, got the largest size & got a lot of stuff in, no problem, bit awkward at first as you have to put your nails into the plastic seal to open bag initially, kept sliding zip along but it wouldn’t open… still, would buy again…also got a personal email from Cindy, thanking me for buying..nice touch… . how often does that happen? Will be recommending to everyone…
These bags are required, well ahead, for some holiday packing, where we are taking more clothes than usual. The pack included a pump, which is what attracted me, as we would, obviously, need to pack again for our return journey and the pump is handy at our destination.
The first time I used the pump, it seemed like nothing was happening and I was quite displeased! However with some persistence I got the air drawn out and it seems the bags will work well.
UPDATE DEC2017: Packing for real. Unscrew the top of the valve (cover) and LEAVE WELL ALONE the roundal of rubberised material you see under it. It acts as the valve. The supplied pump screws into the valve for very easy use to extract air, which is on the up-stroke of the pump. I would prefer to extract air using a vacuum cleaner, but on our eventual reurn journey we would not have one available! The extraction is fine, though I think a vacuum would make a difference. One of the bags leaked as I was pumping. I could hear the leak which seemed to come from the zip, but I could not stop it. ANOTHER THING: On the zip is a sliding ‘key’. This slides across the strips that interlock, but it may only make a partial engagement of the top & bottom strips. Make sure the key is on correctly and sits above the two strips that lock. Slide the key from one side to the other. THEN, use your fingers to go slowly along the length of the strips and press hard to ensure the strips either side of the back fully interlock. Happy packing.
I’ve bought a number of cheaper versions of this product before and they’ve been a waste of money so… I decided to invest a little more and haven’t been disappointed. Opened the SpaceSaver box and immediately noticed the quality. The bags are of a good quality plastic, a lot thicker than the cheaper ones and the fastening and vacuum nozzle sturdier. Have used two jumbo ones so far and am pleased with the result, they’re enormous. With a lifetime guarantee there’s nothing to lose, although I get the feeling these are built to last. Will be investing in the other sizes in the near future.
I have just packed for the first time with these bags – we are travelling through Vietnam for 5 weeks. I am impressed with the ease of packing in managable packs, that I can unpack and repack easily and repeatedly – and I have so much more room in my case! Great produc
Great big size can fit superkingsize bedding in for excellent space saving have bought many of these over the years this is the best quality I have ever seen or used very strong bags will definitely be ordering more in smaller sizes to store summer clothes in great for saving space in suitcase when going on holidays added bonus of hand pump go ahead and buy now you won’t be disappointed
This is the 2nd time I have ordered these Vacuum bags – as the first batch I bought have proved to be a life saver. Vacuumed all my garden table cushions down for safe storage fro the winter.
Fantastic product! It did what it stated. I purchased this product for my mum because she had a truck load of quilts and no space. With these jumbo space savers she stacked away two king sized quilts and blankets! Thank you the product is great and I will be purchasing more in the future.
These wonderful bags not only save me packing space but enable me to take my goose down pillow in my suitcase on holiday with me great, no more creaking necks with holiday pillows!
Used one of my space saver bags for my children’s bedding. It has saved me loads of space in the divan base drawer where we keep it and so I can now keep it all together. Towels next! And my daughter isn’t worried about how she’s going to fit all her belongings into her suitcase when she goes on her school trip in a couple of weeks. She’s taking the free pump with her to be able to shrink it all back down again for her return journey! Very happy with my purchase!
I bought these for my holiday suitcase packing, and I haven’t been on holiday yet. I did, however, do a pre-packing test, rolling some clothes, putting them in a bag and rolling the air out. This worked very well, compacting the clothes. I then left them alone for several days, and only after about 5 days has some air started to seep back in. So, my verdict on these bags is that they’ll do nicely for reducing the space in my cabin size suitcase and allowing me to get 7 days’ worth of clothes and souvenirs in.
Fantastic quality product. Robust, durable, good size & a perfect space saver. I have recommended the product to others. Thank you Cindy and your team for this great idea!!
very fast delivery, thank you for that. the bags are a bit larger than I thought they would be, but I suppose that’s better than too small. you can lots of bedding, pillows, quilts etc.. I have reduced the space in my cupboards by over half. I will have to buy more clothes to fill my wardrobe up again. BRILIANT, THANK YOU LOTS. Marilyn XXX
Love these bags. Use them for all my holiday let bedding, linen, duvets and pillows.They never let any air in, keep everything damp proof and moth proof and everything comes out smelling as it went in. Have just bought another 10 for all my household bedding storage. I have other vacuum bags by other manufacturers which never work properly and end up re-inflating. These never do.
These vacuum bags are great, either for storage or transporting. They’re heavy duty as they say and thick plastic that is durable. With recently moving we’ve thrown these bags around, cramped them into unusually tight spaces and even scraped them all over the car boot and sides and had zero issues with splitting or air escaping or any Issues of the sort.
They’re a decent size too, we only used 4 to transport all of our clothes and towels and they really compressed down to a very manageable size (Although heavy when filled). They’re easy to use too and provide a recommended guide where to stop filling the bag as to prevent overfilling and potentially unsealing.
The sealing zip/tie is really easy to use and very sturdy. With throwing the bags around a bit and cramming them into our tiny car, they didn’t unseal or open once.
all in all a really good buy and a must for anyone that needs things stored in a compressed fashion. Will try these on bendy ply at some point in the future too as they seem durable enough for that as well.
This product is amazing, I know they say jumbo but you can really get a lot into them.
I’ll be having a baby soon so I have been using them the storage things away to make room and I now have so much room it’s fantastic.
The bags are so so simple to use and very fast to get it all sorted, I am extremely happy I purchased these, they have been a real help !!
Highly recommend to everyone
I ordered these because we are having building work done and I am putting most of my wardrobe in these bags to be temporarily stored during the work. I’m also putting extra pillows, blankets, etc in these bags during the work, as the thought of dust from building work makes me cringe. I started the cull today and used three of these bags. So far so good. They are big. I’m 5’4 and the extend from the floor to just under my chest. I’m not new to using this type of bag, as I use them to store loads of other items. I did find the pump cumbersome, so opted for the vacuum seal method, however the pump would be handy for holidays. In all honesty, these are a bit too big to use for travel, you might opt for half the size for a suitcase. I have only rated four stars simp,y because the bags are new in use as of today so I can’t say they lasted well or held air. So far there are no problems with leaking. These bags can be tricky if you don’t seal them properly. You can tell when you’ve sucked enough air out of them because the bag gets firm and stiff. I love these and have used The As Seen on TV ones years ago. These bags seem sturdy and every bit as good as the others I have used. I got an email from the company after my purchase, saying they have a lifetime guarantee. I’ve only ever had one bag fail me from another brand over the years, so fingers crossed I won’t have any problems and I will update my rating at a later date and increase to five stars if these last. Thank you, I feel happy with my purchase and quantity that came in the box!!
Bags are great, exactly as other reviewers had said, high quality flexible plastic that doesnt crackle or squeak.
My only issue was my hoover (an older dyson) wouldnt fit onto the valve. Fortunately I could use the hand pump (I was a little dubious as my first bag contained 2 double duvets with room to spare) but it was really light work, and did not take long at all (approximately an advert break).
These bags are really, really good. I have only used 2 so far, one for clothes just to test it, and the other to store a thick, duck down kingsize duvet. The duvet was a struggle to fit in the bag but once it was in, the little zipper thing to seal it was really easy to use and fast.
The vent on the bag has a one way valve so you don’t have to worry about air getting back in to it once you have vacuumed it out. When using the pump, it screws in place making a brilliant seal.
I started to use the included pump which it was clear would take absolutely hours to get all the air out. I didn’t want to get the hoover out as one of the main reasons to buy this is to use at the caravan where we don’t take the hoover.
I had the brain wave of unsealing the bag to squeeze some air out. It did occur to me that i might break the bag using this method but then I remembered the ‘100% money back guarantee’ in the description. So I opened up the side of the seal. There are 2 seal strips which both work really well, after opening an inch or so I was worried that the seals might split open along the seam but with most of my 16 stone weight on the bag pushing the air out of the little split I had made I am happy to say the seals didn’t open any more and the bag showed no signs of splitting.
They really are made very well. Once I was sure I had as much air out as I could, I resealed the top and set about attaching the pump again, but again, got sick of using it. The pump is just too small, but its free so i am not marking it down.
I got out the hoover… well… dyson and noticed there is a little thumb button on the end of my hoover tube to attach accessories to so I could not get a perfect seal on the bag vent thing, however this was not too much a problem as it was still working very effectively. I got as much air out as I could then fitted the pump on again to get the last out and it was clear when there was little air left in the bag. The pump got stiff to use.
I would definately recommend this product.
Did exactly what it said it would do. Amazing space saver.
I uswd them to store duvets and pillows in ,in my caravan .
Some people say theirs have failed to maintain vacuum, but our have been fine. Sturdy quality.
The hand pump is far easier to use than I expected, perfect for travel packing and saves wrestling with the vacuum cleaner at home. Very pleased.
I love these everything you need to make small of all your clothes.
Great size, can fit quite a lot in just one bag, super easy to use & they stay vacuumed!
Definitely recommend
These bags really do work. Used other makes in the past that have failed.
These bags are strong and dont loose thier Vaccuum.
Made in Germany as well.
Really spacious, I fit two single duvets easily in one (with a little room to spare) and 4 standard size pillows plus a couple of smaller pillows in another.
Very good quality, I didnt use the hand pump though I used a hoover.
Wish I’d bought these earlier, the size is just as stated , just what I needed and the pump – well it’s such a bonus as when I go abroad I’m not looking for a vacuum . Love them and will be buying different sizes too!
Great for storing those not so often used items, strong and durable.
Great quality. Once compressed and properly sealed mine have stayed flat for many months.
Comes with a hand pump while away. But at home just use a vacuum cleaner to suck the air out.
The product itself does exactly what it says it does!
I recently had a problem with one of the bags re-inflating. I contacted customer service who responded to me very quickly and once they had the details of the problem immediately dealt with it in a highly professional manner.
I WILL be using them again!
These bags are easy to use and store lots of clothing . I have stored lots of bath towels and sheets and bedding duvet and pillows . They are great for most things . Thoroughly recommend .
Put all our babies clothes in to one large bag, they grew out of so many clothes and this was a great way to store them and not have too much space taken up.
The hand pump is great too if you don’t want to get the vaccuum out and disturb a sleeping baby.
Used this to pack up all son’s clothes, bedding etc from Uni – great to save space!!
These are really good at staying sealed, however when I opened one yesterday to reorganise my clothes into categories that suited me, the clothes were really creased and I had to iron with more than usual pressure to get rid of the creases caused by the vacuum. Call me stupid, but I genuinely thought that once the air got into the garments they would ‘reinflate’ to what they were before they were placed in the bags and vacuumed: they didn’t. My advice is to not reduce the bag to its minimum size; take into account the type of fabric you are storing especially if the fabric is delicate, as you may have to iron later to reshape the garment and the fabric could be overstretched depending on the creasing level. Bedding would be okay for extra ironing pressure: if required. Lesson learned. The bags are of good quality, do the job as intended and will not reinflate with air until opened again, as long as you follow the instructions. You should also manually press along the two top strip sections of the bag to ensure they are properly clicked together, then use the little clip to ensure it is fully sealed as per instructions.
Product very good,however,i ordered a pump to blow up the vacumn bags,,The Pump Dosent work?????
Work well gone form a medium sized case to a small case for a week away.
Bought to pack away my daughter’s Uni duvet and bedding and extras that won’t be needed till she heads back in autumn. Absolutely brilliant. Super easy to use – the hand pump actually creates a better vacuum than my vacuum cleaner. A fabulous buy!
Easy to use and storage capacity for travelling and even to keep you winter clothes storage
I purchased these bags and after using them I have so much space in my draws now. So easy to use. I had an issue and contacted the sellers and they resolved the issue immediately without any question which I found amazing. The package comes in various sizes which helps. It squeezed my duvet flat so now instead of a duvet occupying a whole draw I can fit many items on top of the packed away duvet. Highly recommended
Have purchased quite a few of these in the past and never had a problem. I noticed some have said they leak air back in, but i have never had a problem with them
used it to store extra bedding packed away very nicely
Would always buy only these space saver bags as have tried other brands & none stay as they should ONLY these ones work.
Company very good as always get them early or by date expected
I have only used a couple of them one I have put my sons old teddies in, I used one of the jumbo sizes and it’s brilliant. The other one was a large and they are working great. Going on holiday soon and going to use some efor then. But would definitely recommend.
Not as great as you might think some Seem To let in air after a little while
well these are pretty good – packed three so far – these are the jumbo plus size
packing some super-king bedding – the mid weight duvet fitted easily and worked well
the 13.5 tog high volume duvet took a bit of squeezing into the bag, but once in shrunk to proabaly less than 20% of its origninal volume.
nice quality – they won’t last for ever but should last a couple of uses or more – so pretty pleased and would recommend
It did as what said, worth to buy it and definitely save a lot spaces.
Really good. And great to fit in while moving. Next time I will get different sizes
Very easy to use, great for storing spare bedding in my airing cupboard
Got plenty of jumpers in here to store away till winter. Easy to use.
Storing winter duvets. Saves loads of space. Easy to use
Excellent space-saving bags. Bought jumbo size ones and was able to fit double duvet in one of the bags perfectly. Shrunk amazingly flat. Perfect for camper-van use. Easy to use with vacuum cleaner. Suspect hand pump would be hard-going but not tried yet. Will definitely buy more for storing winter clothes etc. Great that they can be re-used multiple times, as long as the zippers/closings hold out!
Purchased a second lot as so good. I was moving home and a great way to move my clothes, whilst keeping them dry and clean. Clothes easier to store whilst in these. Great for my spare bedding, towels and out of season clothes.
Wow so impressed by these! so big and easy to use. My dyson was able to suck out the air and saved me so much space.
Used to pack away winter clothes , soft toys etc . Great for space saving .
Easy to use. Done the job i needed it fo
I have just bought a second pack of these as I easily filled the first 8. When you see how small something bulky like pillows and duvets packs down to, you can’t wait to find something else to test it out. I had a double duvet in a large stacker box and it was as flat as a pancake in a space saver bag. Some clothes don’t pack down very small unless they are thick to start with and the packs can be deceptively heavy. You can press the hose from a Hoover over the valve and suck most of the air out and then use the pump included to remove the last bit. It is best to smooth the back out a bit as you go to keep it as flat as possible. I haven’t yet unpacked a bag but expect clothes to be very creased.
Really good bags, the pump included is very effective. Time will tell if they hold up but look like they will.
Great quality not this cheap stuff you get from bargin shops.
Defo recommend i
Different sizes and a pump included defo something to get if youre moving houses as sucks up all the air giving more room for storage.
The bags were great. Only issue was the hand pump which is not the best. Hence 4 stars. Works well with vaccum cleaner.
My daughter was sceptical about it, i packed all their suitcases they going to south Africa with kids lots off presents and 2 kids. They were happy with the bags easy yo use!
Brilliant product I went for the jumbo size to fit all winter clothing in and amazed by how much you can get in them .
Money well spent and great quality .
Have many left over to use when switching from winter to summer quilts !
Would highly recommend
I was on holiday/vacation in Ireland with full suitcases. These vacuum sealed bags allowed me to satisfy my shopping addiction. I strongly recommend these. Please note The large bags are more than enough for my large suitcase, but unknowingly purchased jumbo bags.
Very good value for the price,takes awile to take all the air out but in general good.
There was nothing not to like , as they say it does what it says on the tin ; easy to use , l used mine to pack away clothes not in use to make room in my wardrobe Thanks would recommend!
Very useful space saving storage bags. Unfortunately the supplied pump didnt work. I didnt raise this issue as my vaccuum cleaner achieved the desired result, so wasnt a problem for me.
The bags seem to be good quality and are the size advertised. I bought the large ones which i think are probably a bit big for travelling with but they are ideal for under bed or loft storage. Not tried the pump yet but i’m not really bothered if it works or not because i will just use the vacuum anyway.
Needed smaller vacuum bags to fit into a cabin sized suitcase. These work well as long as not overfilled so that the end can be folded over. Tried one out a few days ago and no sign of air leaking in. The hand pump that comes with the pack is as good (if not better) than a small electric pump I had also bought. It is also lightweight so not a problem to pack in the case for the return journey. I expect some of the contents will be creased when I get them out but with ski gear I am not too worried about that. I would recommend giving these a try.
These bags are good. I’ve used them before but it seems every pack I’ve bought has a broken bag that won’t stay delafted. Bit disappointed to be honest. I can’t seem to find a way to contact anyone for a replacement bag. If it was easier to get a replacement id give it 5 stars. But if I can’t replace that bag (and any others that maybe broke) then its a 1*. If they don’t work then its a waste of money. If things change ill update my review
Update i found an email on the website. They responded very quickly and sent out a replacement. I think ill stick to these in future. Very good customer service
These Vacuum packed bags were great for storing away summer clothes and it was very easy to use.
Every bag was enormous and it had enough space to fit in a lot of clothes. Once packed and sealed you just open the cap and suck all the air out. Its as easy as that. Once finished if you hear air coming out its prob your seal isnt zipped up well enough or the little rubbery mould has been misaligned. Align the rubbery mould and the air should stop and suck more air out.
Brilliant bags. Over time air would prob fill it back up but these have been the best vacuum bags i have used in a long time.
Good product, we used them to put cushions for outdoor furniture in so they go in the loft.
Quite difficult to connect the pump, and you need to make sure the seal is closed correctly.
I used for storing summer clothes, towels and bedsheets that would otherwise take lots of space. They were easy to pack in boxes for cargo, sending to the needy.
Big spacious bags… Used to move home and clothes compacted very well.
Had to use a vacuum though as the travel hand pump didn’t work to draw air out.
Was really apprehensive about this purchase, as an avid traveler I needed to find something to help with my space in the packing department. What I got was an easy to use, space saving answer.
The bags come in different sizes which were perfect for all of my clothes. Perfect for crease avoidance, once in and rolled tightly my clothes came out the otherside ready to hang.
If you’re looking for a product to help you take a few more other items then try this. I had space left over in my case once I had rolled out all up.
Awesome product easy to use and does exactly what they say they do.
Brilliant. We packed 8 pillows, 2 King size duvets, 2 sets of single duvets plus covers and 4 king size sheets into 5 jumbo bags. All stored ready for caravan next year.
These bags seem to be quite strong.
I’ve tried many other vaccuum bags for camping or for storing clothes or bedding, and these seem to be quite strong plastic compared to them which have either split, or got holes in after one use or the valves have failed and caused a nightmare when trying to pack up.
The only issue which is slight is that with the pump I found it took quite a long time to suck the air out of the bags, but with a hoover it was seconds. I would use the pump if I didn’t have access to electric or a hoover at any point though, so it’s nice to have the option.
I would definitely buy them again.
The plastic itself feels thick but is in use, quite delicate. I had some of the bags re-inflate to full in the cupboard which meant pulling the top one out with a bit of effort as they now were totally stuffed in. It rubbed against the top of the shelf on the way out and got a split / hole (even though I was being careful).
My upright Dyson hose works with the valve. I’ve never used the pump. When the bag works, you know the bag works as the air shrinks the item down almost immediately. If you have a leak, the bag will start shrinking but much slower so you know something is wrong.
Getting a flat, even shrunk package is a bit of an art. Sometimes, the shrunken result takes up as much shelf space than the item folded would have.
Great for keeping dust and moths away when things go into storage. I will buy more but the fail rate is disappointing.
I bought these vacuum bags to store some valuable clothes in the attic, while also protecting them against dust and damage by moths. They work incredibly well for this and were quick and easy to use, and feature triple zip lock seals. The fact that they reduced the volume of the clothes by about half meant that you can pack much more into a smaller space – great for travel if you have unlimited weight on hand luggage ; )
Firstly, the advert said this bag size was “10cm” which makes no sense, they are in fact 80 x 100cm which is a really ample size. So far I’ve packed 3 bags, one with a high tog/winter superking duvet (which fit in with plenty of space, probably could’ve packed a pillow in too), I’ve also packed (as shown in the photos) 1 x double duvet, 2 x pillows and 5 x cushions all into one bag, the third bag I fit 60 x t-shirts, 2 x jeans, 3 x shorts, 3 x PJs and still had a little room for more. Basically you can fit a lot into each bag, so 10 of them gives you plenty of packing space.
So far I’ve seen the main benefits come from packing duvets and pillows due to their high air content they give a great size reduction. Clothes go in great too, show a slight size compression, but I’ve found it most useful that in holds them tightly together as a solid block which make them easy to transport, stack or store.
The box comes with 10 bags, 12 slide shut clips and one pump. The bags are a good quality plastic, well sealed around the edges with a double seal top, their valve is also a good quality plastic, as are the clips and pump. The whole kit feels well made and I have confidence they will stay working long term (the lifetime guarantee helps support that too!).
All in all I’m happy with this purchase and would recommend for moving or storing bedding or clothes.
I bought a set of these bags 6 months ago. They are made of good quality plastic and have proved easy to use and very durable. They are easily deflated using the enclosed hand pump. I’ve used them to store clothes which do get pretty creased admittedly but a good session with an iron soon sorts this out. Perhaps the best thing has been the absolutely exceptional customer service I’ve received from this company. Shortly after purchasing one of the medium bags developed a small hole and wouldn’t deflate. I emailed the company one evening asking if it would be possible to receive a replacement under their lifetime guarantee. To my surprise later that evening I received a reply saying yes, no problem (around 10 pm!) An even bigger surprise was to receive an entire set of bags as a replacement, not just one bag to cover the defective one which was what I expected!!! So generous!!! I was so surprised that l had to contact the company again to check this wasn’t a mistake; it wasn’t!!! I think this is simply terrific service and would have no hesitation in recommending buying these bags from this company. I don’t think I’ve ever received such good service!!! My only request would be this, would it be possible to buy a set of the small bags on their own? It would be great if the company would consider/do this as not not all items requiring to be stored are huge.
These SpaceSaver bags, however, DO work! and I would highly recommend if you’re looking.
I’ve had them almost a week, and saved a tonne of space already. So far, no issues of reinflation or faulty bags but – even if there were – there’s a lifetime warranty / replacement!
As I haven’t had the bags in use for long, I will amend this review in the unlikely event of any issues occurring; So you will see if/that this review will stand testament to the quality having not been amended.
I purchased this whole box of Jumbo bags as they are about the same size of a 90L storage box (from above said high street chain, albeit these bags are flat). Being honest, I should have maybe gotten one of the SpaceSaver Variety Pack of sizes on offer instead as I wasn’t able to fill all the bags as they are just that huge haha. My fault there, though, but something to bear in mind (getting a variety pack of sizes) 🙂
Regards the actual space saving ability; It shrunk a 90L storage box full of clothing down to around 45% of it’s volume, and a sleep bag down to around 25%!
Easy to fill and great with the hand pump if you want to work the arm muscles (but easier with the vacuum 🙂 )
Will buy again if I need more which is more than likely!
The first time I used the pump, it seemed like nothing was happening and I was quite displeased! However with some persistence I got the air drawn out and it seems the bags will work well.
UPDATE DEC2017: Packing for real. Unscrew the top of the valve (cover) and LEAVE WELL ALONE the roundal of rubberised material you see under it. It acts as the valve. The supplied pump screws into the valve for very easy use to extract air, which is on the up-stroke of the pump. I would prefer to extract air using a vacuum cleaner, but on our eventual reurn journey we would not have one available! The extraction is fine, though I think a vacuum would make a difference. One of the bags leaked as I was pumping. I could hear the leak which seemed to come from the zip, but I could not stop it. ANOTHER THING: On the zip is a sliding ‘key’. This slides across the strips that interlock, but it may only make a partial engagement of the top & bottom strips. Make sure the key is on correctly and sits above the two strips that lock. Slide the key from one side to the other. THEN, use your fingers to go slowly along the length of the strips and press hard to ensure the strips either side of the back fully interlock. Happy packing.
They’re a decent size too, we only used 4 to transport all of our clothes and towels and they really compressed down to a very manageable size (Although heavy when filled). They’re easy to use too and provide a recommended guide where to stop filling the bag as to prevent overfilling and potentially unsealing.
The sealing zip/tie is really easy to use and very sturdy. With throwing the bags around a bit and cramming them into our tiny car, they didn’t unseal or open once.
all in all a really good buy and a must for anyone that needs things stored in a compressed fashion. Will try these on bendy ply at some point in the future too as they seem durable enough for that as well.
I’ll be having a baby soon so I have been using them the storage things away to make room and I now have so much room it’s fantastic.
The bags are so so simple to use and very fast to get it all sorted, I am extremely happy I purchased these, they have been a real help !!
Highly recommend to everyone
My only issue was my hoover (an older dyson) wouldnt fit onto the valve. Fortunately I could use the hand pump (I was a little dubious as my first bag contained 2 double duvets with room to spare) but it was really light work, and did not take long at all (approximately an advert break).
These bags are really, really good. I have only used 2 so far, one for clothes just to test it, and the other to store a thick, duck down kingsize duvet. The duvet was a struggle to fit in the bag but once it was in, the little zipper thing to seal it was really easy to use and fast.
The vent on the bag has a one way valve so you don’t have to worry about air getting back in to it once you have vacuumed it out. When using the pump, it screws in place making a brilliant seal.
I started to use the included pump which it was clear would take absolutely hours to get all the air out. I didn’t want to get the hoover out as one of the main reasons to buy this is to use at the caravan where we don’t take the hoover.
I had the brain wave of unsealing the bag to squeeze some air out. It did occur to me that i might break the bag using this method but then I remembered the ‘100% money back guarantee’ in the description. So I opened up the side of the seal. There are 2 seal strips which both work really well, after opening an inch or so I was worried that the seals might split open along the seam but with most of my 16 stone weight on the bag pushing the air out of the little split I had made I am happy to say the seals didn’t open any more and the bag showed no signs of splitting.
They really are made very well. Once I was sure I had as much air out as I could, I resealed the top and set about attaching the pump again, but again, got sick of using it. The pump is just too small, but its free so i am not marking it down.
I got out the hoover… well… dyson and noticed there is a little thumb button on the end of my hoover tube to attach accessories to so I could not get a perfect seal on the bag vent thing, however this was not too much a problem as it was still working very effectively. I got as much air out as I could then fitted the pump on again to get the last out and it was clear when there was little air left in the bag. The pump got stiff to use.
I would definately recommend this product.
