Space Bag 4 Large Plus 2 Travel Bags

I was careful to not overfil the bags with my clothes for travelling. The first bag burst open the zipper and after that I took more of the clothes out and had the same thing happen. The larger bag burst the bottom seam on the first use so I had to throw it away. These just added to the aggravation of getting ready to travel. Will look for ones that have a better rating because I like to concept of the bags and it's easy if Customs need to open your suitcase.

Good Items

The storage bags are really great for storing and eleminating the plastic totes. I wished I had known about them earlier. I have done 3 closets and now on my way to the 4th one. I find the space bags have many uses. I hope I never be without them, they are strong, have not had a problem with the material or air leakage. The Large jumbo totes are my favorite, I like putting a veriety of things in the tote and then zaping out the air. I stack them and they look so neat in the closets. This has solved my lack of space.

I had a number of household items I needed to ship, including a thick mattress pad. I could fold it so it fit into the designated space inside a large bag. But the bag would not hold air. It had a slow leak. I couldn't figure out where it was. But it would have been easier to pack the mattress pad without the space bag. After seeing that bag leak, I didn't trust other bags to hold air while being shipped. And I definitely didn't need shipping boxes "exploding" from enlarging bags inside a box. I'd never buy these again -- total waste of money.

I live in an apartment and just found out that my neighbor had bedbugs! I found one so far in my apartment, but I'm sure there are more. I bought space bags to store our clothes in after they are dried. The bedbugs are unable to get into the bag, but just in case I always dry my outfits again before leaving the house. I just wish they were a little cheaper.
