HIBAG Vacuum Storage Bags, 30-Pack Space Saver Vacuum Storage Bags, Vacuum Seal Bags for Clothing, Clothes, Comforters and Blankets (30C)

Please read my whole review...JUMBO bags...Shockingly large bags that would easily fit a thick king sized comforter. It was too big for my needs, which was packing bedding to go in a suitcase. BUT, it works wonderfully, and plastic is pliant enough to double over and secure with packing tape. (Shown doubled in pic) It's also thick enough to re-use, so I'm very, very happy. I have already used it to suction area rugs that are stored on top of a cabinet and tend to get covered in dust.The automatic suction, I did NOT read the instructions, and was pretty furious at the comically short charging cord. BUT, the device works only when not on the charging cord, so it seriously doesn't matter. I'd reconsider making it struggle to get that last ounce of air out, but it works well, and was already mostly charged when I opened it.I will be buying many other sizes, and another suction device because it really is fantastic and I never want to be without. Seriously, I'm walking around my house seeing what else I can squish in one of these bags....

Astonishing. These Jumbo bags are perfect for those winter clothes and blankets that need to get minimized! We love blankets in this house but during the summer they are not needed and take up too much space. This helped cut down the size by half the original size. Some bags reduced down to a third of the original size! The zipper seals really well, i’m happy it came with a hand pump just in case but I did simply use my vacuum and it worked so much better! The size was bigger than i expected which was great, it leaves room for me to use all the bag space, or some. Love these bags and plan on getting more for when we move to minimize the space!

I'm not impressed by this variety pack of vacuum bags. I'm leaving this review after a year, when most of the bags are gone. That means I'm writing these details from memory, and some details aren't 100% accurate. But my memories of these bags leave a lot to be desired. They do exactly what they say, and I did get some good usage out of them. There weren't any major flaws that made me want to return them, and the product page was accurate. You know exactly what you're getting. However, I struggle to imagine myself using these bags more often or buying replacements when the last few inevitably break. You're probably better off buying multi-purpose plastic storage containers, a specific size of bag, or changing your plans entirely.I used these bags for long term storage, for packing a backpack and suitcase on multiple flights, and for saving space on a super long road trip. All of those use cases have some major "maybe don't do that" problems. I definitely would have struggled more on my road trip without the bags, but that's because I made terrible plans and ended up having to pack too much of my old apartment into my car. In another review, I said to pack less stuff. That also applies here. I'd you're considering these bags for very limited space travel, don't.After using the bags multiple different ways, I realized you realistically only need 3 sizes. The super small hand-compression bags that don't need a vacuum because you squeeze them with your arms, a medium sized bag for smaller items like multiple shirts, and a mega big bag for large towels and blankets. All the other random sizes are just clutter when you're looking for a bag that will hold several towels and you accidentally grab a large bag instead of a jumbo bag. So that's one negative mark on the bags. The package includes way too many weird sizes. It's perfect if you only need one specific size, but you'll probably struggle to actually use all the bags effectively. So it makes the value proposition a bit rough. You're buying a combo pack, but some of it will just become trash. If the manufacturers are reading this, make the three sizes color coded, so you can always grab a specific size from the pile of bags. That would help a lot. You can always leave part of the bag empty, and fold up the unused part. So having more bigger bags would be better.The problem with using the bags as long term storage is that they slowly re-inflate. The valve doesn't hold in air over a long time. The manual that came with the bags says you should re-vacuum the bags after a while. I forget if it's 6 weeks or 3 months, but the bags will never hold their vacuum if you store winter clothes inside, which is a major strike against using these for storage. I understand the laws of physics make this a nearly impossible task, but I must ask what the purpose of long term storage is when you need to re-pack your stuff every few months. At that point, just use a different storage method. The bags still hold some vacuum after 6 months, but they're less "TV infomercial shrinking magic", and more "big ziploc bag" after they settle in. So a big box is probably just as good.The problem with traveling with vacuum bags, is the traveling part. On an airplane, the weight is a major problem, and you might get caught with an overweight bag if you compress too much stuff into your suitcase, like I did. Plus, it's just annoying to travel with too much stuff. The more you try to cram into your suitcase, the worse your travel experience will be. Repacking vacuum bags in a hotel before a flight is the worst thing ever. Plus, you need a portable vacuum. I got one of those too. Please, learn from my mistake and pack less stuff. You probably don't need it, and you can just do laundry on the trip. With one exception I'll explain at the end.On the road trip, the bags were just as much a liability as an asset. That's where I found out that vacuum bags love snagging on random corners, and these specific bags love to get giant holes poked in them if they aren't sitting on a nice flat surface. I broke around 3-4 bags on the trip, which was an unpleasant surprise that left me without enough large bags to keep everything compressed. Plus, I was hotel hopping, which made me realize how horrible it is to have to revacuum your bags when leaving a hotel. Seriously, just pack less stuff. Needing to buy things just to cleanly store the other things you bought is a sign you might have a problem. If you're depending on vacuum bags to make everything fit ona trip, you're eventually going to run into an unpleasant surprise when one of them breaks. You could pack extras, but with extra bags with bulky valves and a vacuum pump, you're really eating into the extra space you thought you'd get by vacuuming all your stuff. These bags really aren't good for traveling.The one exception for travel were the super-small bags you could hand compress. Those were actually great for hopping between hotels on a road trip. The bags don't have the plastic valve, so they're super thin and the empty bags fit anywhere. Instead of a traditional plastic valve with a locking cap, the travel bags use a valve at the bottom of the bag. They have a zipper at the top, but the bottom is technically open. There's a long S bend at the bottom, and the two sides of the bag will stick to each other. You can force air out by compressing the bag like a balloon, which pushes the valve open to let the air out. But the sides of the bag stick to each other, and block air from getting back inside the bag. Ironically, those seem to hold their vacuum the best, although their design means that you can't get anywhere as good if a vacuum. I needed some bulky winter pants, but only if I was going to be outside for a long period of time. I also needed to pack them in my backpack instead of my suitcase, so I could change clothes in the middle of the day. Being able to throw those pants into a vacuum bag that I only opened sometimes was great, and the bag kept them in a nice package that was easy to organize in my backpack. I also used the hand bags for emergency clothes, in case I got stuck without my suitcase. Which has happened on 2 out of 3 flights one month in 2024. Family emergencies are rough. If there was a pack of 15 of those bags with no plastic valve, I'd gladly buy them, because it's really hard to go wrong with having a few extras for traveling. They keep your clothes clean, compact, and organized in the rest of your bag. But this pack only has like, three of them, which isn't enough for traveling. You're better off looking somewhere else for vacuum bags, or finding another solution for storage.I'm going to keep the leftover bags around, but in the future I'm probably not going to buy a variety pack of bags. I'm either going to be nothing buy mega jumbo bags for quilts and use them like giant ziplock bags to keep my late grandma's quilts clean, or I'm going to buy a pack of travel bags because they're surprisingly good. But I'm not buying this variety pack again.Although I guess it served it's purpose of helping me figure out what size bags I need, and what qualities I care about in a vacuum bag.

I could not get the vacuum to work— I did not realize that the vacuum works like an air pump. I got the first bag semi vacuumed and moved on to the next. I kept hearing this air sound. I finally realize the bag wasn’t fully sealed and it was causing air to leak. I finally figured it out and was able to seal the bags properly. I got a huge down comforter into the bag and it’s on the shelf whereas before it was taking up all this space in the closet. I am planning to seal ALL the comforters to make so much more room on my shelves!!

These bags are a space saver and a must if you are moving. We got them for our daughter who was moving out from her apartment after graduating from college (4 years of accumulated stuff). We were able to put all her (soft) belongings into these bags (including all winter clothes, bedding, towels, etc). They worked perfectly. The little pump was great. She was able to fit everything she owns into her SUV. Highly recommend!

The included tiny hand pump is surprisingly very effective! I use a vacuum cleaner on my jumbo bags (different brand) because the electric pump that came with that kit (not this kit) does not work well at all. THIS kit comes with a slender hand pump and it is just as effective as my vacuum cleaner at sucking all the air out of the bags. I don't need to break out the vacuum cleaner to seal these bags. Amazing!
