MagicBag 12-Pack Medium Flat Vacuum Compression Bags Instant Space Saver Storage - Airtight Double Zipper - Clothing, Pillows - Home Organization

Easy to use

I bought 2 boxes. I only used one of them and only one of the bags is not good. I hope the other bags are fine.

Bags seem to be made of a heavier thicker material. They are somewhat hard to close but i would rather have the durability of the heavier material.What I did was use a pliers to grip the part past the zipper to grip the end and pull the sealer across. Move slowly across the bag as it seals. Be careful not to damage the seals / zipper. Use the sealer or your fingers - only. I am apprehensive about how well the vacuum port seals without a cap. Its been a couple of days. if they leak i will return them and update this review.

The bags were easy to open, fill, close and seal. I used these bags when packing my luggage to travel. It worked so well and flattened my stuff that my luggage was actually overweight. So I unsealed, took out clothes and resealed (at least 2 times) They worked perfect each time and remained sealed.

So far the seal hasn’t leaked. Was hoping to protect my great grandmother’s quilt in less space needed.

Absolutely love these bags and totally recommend. One can get so much in them!

Would not purchase again. Half would not seal

Although there could be manufacturing defects, I think the majority of bad reviews are user error. I have used 5 of the 6 xl bags without issue. First one puffed back up the next day but that was because I overstuffed it. Hasn’t come undone since.Tip: if you have the space to store it upright and aren’t trying to cram under a bed make sure you flip the bag upright when putting last items inside to ensure it isn’t over the line. I learned that if I pack the full bag with it laying flat, it looks like you are stuffing items behind the line but you aren’t.Very easy to use with vacuum hose. Don’t use your pointed nozzle tip obviously, and just make sure you seal it like you would a ziplock bag, run the slider across three times and voila!Photo shows 4 of the five bags I used (5th is under a bed). This is 4-5 large capacity storage containers worth of clothes, winter jackets, and bedding plus a large “my pillow”.

I used this bag for drapes storage. One of my 6 bags did not hold the seal. I didnt overfill but the white seal did not hold after 25 mins. The 3 others I used were fine.

So far so good had them for a bit now they are holding the blankets and clothesNo deflating up to now and got them flat enough even for the small comforter I put in
