Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Ordered these to try on a recent trip and I absolutely love them. Used 7 of these bags in my carryon and another 2 in my backpack. Zero malfunctions - every single one worked as expected. Here's what blows about these bags. A lot of compression bags require a vacuum pump to suck out the air - NOT these. To get the air out you first seal the bag like a zip lock baggie after you fill it. Then starting at the zip lock end you roll the bag up as tight as possible working your way toward the opposite side. When you get going you'll notice air is being pushed (blown) out the bottom of the bag. By the time you roll everything to the bottom most of the air has been evacuated (blown) out. You can then either leave the bag rolled up or unroll it like I did to pack my suitcase. Man does this save a lot of space. It's great. To unload a bag all you have to do is undo the zip lock seal just like you would on a baggie. Pull out what you need and you can then reseal/roll if needed. What I did is put a change of clothes in each bag. Then after I took out a set of clean clothes I would load the bag with my dirty clothes and compress. At the end of my trip everything fit back in my suitcase just like it did originally. I had no issues with reusing any of the 9 bags for dirty clothes - and every single one re-compressed without issue. I only wish they had a pack of these that only contained the carry on size instead of a combination of sizes. If I had a complaint that would be it. Might also be nice to have an indicator to note if clothes contained in a bag were clean or dirty (I used tape). Would I recommend these? Absolutely!
