A 10-pack of bags that you can compress with just your hands(04 of07)
Open Image Modal
Rating: 4.2 out of 5 stars

These 10 bags come in a variety of sizes and require nothing but your bodyweight to reduce in size. Youll get three 24-inch, three 20-inch and four slightly narrower options that measure 20 by 14 inches in the package. One enterprising reviewer used them to organize their clothes in a dry bag while on a dirt-caked ATV trip in Baja, Mexico .

Promising review: Just buy them, there are plenty of different versions on Amazon, I tried this one, for the price you get great value. Different sized bags accommodate whatever you are packing. I found that slowly sitting on them I a good way to really squish all the air out. I use them when I travel to compress things like my down jacket, gym clothes, and the main reason I purchase was to compress my pillow, so I no longer have to deal with hotel pillows and a crummy nights sleep on the road. Ive used them on about 8 trips so far without issue. Key is not to overstuff the bags with things, if you overpack them the seal will burst when you try to push air out. 10/10 would recommend. Also great to toss all you dirty clothes into these bags at the end of a trip to clear space in your bag for anything new you picked up on your trip. I also anticipate using these for backpacking as well. Michael Benvenuto

These two extra-large flat vacuum storage bags from Ziploc a trusted name in sealable storage are waterproof and reusable. They work with most types of household vacuums to help compress larger items like winter coats or ski pants with flexible plastic that's easy to store.

Promising review: "these are a MUST, in ALL sizes! We use these to put away heavy comforters, sweaters, jackets, and even extra towels sheets and pillows that we dont need until company comes over. our entire linen closet fits onto one shelf now. The best trick is to just layer things in, dont fold them and then put them in or you'll end up with a weird shaped bag. if you lay clothes in or fold the blankets just once, you can help it become a nice flat rectangle as it sucks the air out just push down evenly. then you can stack these on a shelf or in a bin to be more organized. I absolutely love these bags" Michelle A
