No problems with this purchase
I've bought these before and they are OK. After a few months they swell a little and need to use hoover to take excess air out - but I've never found any other makes that don't. Overall, I'm satisfied with this purchase.

Does the job. Smaller than I anticipated but still useful and usable.

Great bags - instructions poor
These bags are very robust and the sealing system is good. However, the valve closing mechanism gets in the way of my vacuum's nozzle. I struggled with it and then found that the plug detatches, making it much easier to use. This was not appparent on the instruction leaflet.

Minimises so much space!!!
So easy to use. Shrinks to about a third of the space. Use slowly though as clip can fall off.

Great for suitcase packing
Bought these for transporting pillows for use on foreign holidays. Nice to have the comfort of your own pillow.

Expensive
Expensive, I googled them and they came up but Morrisons sell the same thing for 1/3 of the price

Ineffective
Within 24 hours, the seal on 3 of the 4 bags did not retain the contents in an compressed airtight condition.

These Vacuum Storage Bags are really designed for HOME STORAGE, and NOT intended to be folded with the contents inside! Possibly rolled, depending on how much is inside the bag and how thick, but definitely NOT folded! Despite being thick plastic bags, the slightest nick will break the vacuum, cause them to inflate and render the vacuum storage bags unusable for their purpose. They can be folded once deflated and EMPTY, which is what the last reply probably thought you meant. Hope this helps.
Hi Thrifty
Yes, the Protect & Store Medium Flat Vacuum Storage Bag 4 Piece Set are reusable so can be folded once deflated.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Also, you CANNOT get 24 sweaters into 1 of these MEDIUM bags, despite the previous reply stating this! The write-up states - This SET can hold up to 24 sweaters or 4 large pillows. ie that is the total in ALL 4 bags, NOT in a bag! However since these MEDIUM sized bags are ONLY 47cm x 57cm, I think you would struggle to get 7 sweaters in each bag! Also, a previous reply by Argos stated - This is designed to fit a standard sized pillow or 3 jumpers! Hope this AND my other reply help.
NO. Vacuum Storage Bags are designed for storing soft items like soft toys, cushions, quilts, pillows, bedding, and clothes, that will take up less space AFTER the air is vacuumed out. They are NOT designed to be filled or lifted, without vacuuming the air out 1st. There are no handles or zips. The side opening is for creating a seal once you vacuum the air out via the valve with a hoover hose. You are better off getting regular storage bags that would suit your purpose. Hope this helps.
Hi Harris,
These are designed to have the air taken out of them however can be used without doing so. Please be advised that this set can hold up to 24 sweaters or 4 large pillows.
Thank you for using Q&A.

Hi Lou,
Yes, once you have placed your clothes inside you will need to use a vacuum to shrink down. Once opened they will expand back to normal size.
Thanks for using Q&A

Hello Giselle,
I can advise the following for the Protect & Store Medium Flat Vacuum Storage Bag 4 Piece Set:
Apologies, no, you use your Vacuum cleaners' hose to shrink them.
Thanks for using Q&A.
You MUST use a VACCUM CLEANER HOSE to vacuum out the air from ANY vacuum storage bags, NOT an air bed pump, or a hand pump, as the previous reply mistakenly said. These are designed to be used with a vacuum cleaner hose, as you need the strong suction of a vacuum cleaner hose to suck the air OUT, NOT a pump that would put air in! Hope this helps clear this up.
Hi adelphie46,
No, you can't use an airbed pump on these Protect & Store Medium Flat Vacuum Storage Bag 4 Piece Set they require a vacuum or a hand pump.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Without comparing the valves on these bags to the type of valves, and pump, you received with the different brand bags you previously bought, it is IMPOSSIBLE to say whether your pump would work. BUT I think it UNLIKELY because, these Vacuum Storage Bags are designed to have the air removed with a VACUUM CLEANER HOSE over the valve. You need the strong suction of a vacuum cleaner to suck the air OUT. A pump is not strong enough, and usually pumps air in. Hope this helps.
Hi Sasha,
Yes, this should be suitable.
Thanks for using Q&A
Hi Ness,
The Protect & Store Medium Flat Vacuum Storage Bag 4 Piece Set would require a vacuum to full deflate and seal the bags. You are also able to use a hand pump.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hi Danilei,
They can be used with any hoover that has a hose or pipe attachment.
