What it does

Twelve reusable vacuum storage bags in four sizes, three each of small, medium, large and jumbo, with a hand pump for use without a vacuum.

  • Mixed sizes cover everything from sweaters to queen duvets
  • Valve fits a household vacuum hose or the included hand pump
  • Double zip closure with a sealing clip
  • Reusable bags made for clothes, coats, towels, bedding and blankets
  • Maker claims up to 80 percent more storage space

A good pick for packing away bedding and off-season clothes, with independent tests finding thick plastic and seals that held. The trade-offs are that the hand pump is slower than a vacuum on big bags and compressed items come out deeply wrinkled.

Questions

Do Spacesaver bags need a vacuum?

No. A hand pump is included, and the valve also works with any vacuum cleaner hose. Testers found the vacuum faster on large bags.

Do Spacesaver vacuum bags stay sealed?

In independent tests the seal held for a full week with towels, and for 5 days with a queen duvet.

How big are Spacesaver jumbo bags?

The maker lists jumbo bags at 40 by 30 inches, large at 32 by 24 and medium at 28 by 20.

Can you store a down comforter in a vacuum bag?

Spacesaver gives no specific guidance. Testers warn that wool and fur can be damaged by long compression and that air can creep back over months.
