I like the vacum sealed bag because it can become more compact for storage. I am limited on storage space.

I’ve purchased Space Saver bags several times. They are great at first, but I’m finding when the items are stored, after a period of time they are no longer air tight. I even double wrapped a few items in an inner Space Saver bag and an outer Space Saver bag and still they did not remain air tight. These bags are expensive. I’m disappointed.

The bags are very easy to rip, so you have to be very careful opening and closing the bags. I do not recommend this product

I was thrilled about trying these out. I opened it up, carefully loaded it with linens, and tried very carefully to follow directions. But I couldn’t get the air sucked out. Then I noticed: gigantic rip in the bottom. When and how that happened, I have no idea. Cheap materials. I do not recommend!!

The plastic that these bags are made of is way too thin to be practical. The bags rip very easily, even when used exactly as the manufacturer specifies. For the money you pay for what is essentially a plastic seal-lock bag with a valve, you’d think you would get a bag that utilized a thicker sheet of plastic. Also, the bags do not keep their seal. The valve itself can keep the air in after the air is vacuumed out, but not over an extended period of time. Perhaps the manufacturer could make the screw-on cap, more reliable. Perhaps the seams of the plastic bag are not sufficient. Perhaps the bags could be made more durably, I’m not sure, but this product is really poorly made.
Bottom line is that this product does not do what it advertises, it is built in a very shoddy fashion, it breaks easily, it doesn’t keep the vacuum seal (and the space saving advantages are lost). Do NOT buy this product.
