Review on Mattress Moving Compress Leakproof Included by Christine Vargas

UPDATE - It didn't stay compressed. A few hours after I finished packing and writing this review, I heard a noise coming from the room where it was stored. Went in and saw that it buckled around the straps. I'm pretty sure it's either a zipper that doesn't fit or a very flimsy and cheap valve. Maybe the seams in the pocket. I'm going back and will try a different brand. I've read that any mattress that comes to you compressed can be compressed again. I have used this on an innerspring mattress (which was compressed when purchased) and it REALLY worked. Although not without problems. I didn't have a plastic latch to close it, but luckily I had it handy as I move and vacuum a lot. The flash line wasn't aligned as others have mentioned, so it took a few tries to start and work from the center. I finally got it close enough to seal it. The valve is in a terrible place. It's next to the zipper. So when you vacuum, it's on the side of the mattress, not the top. But maybe it should be like this? I do not know. I was concerned about how the flimsy, cheap plastic valve would hold up after being rolled up for storage in this location. So I let the air in and changed the position so the valve was up. It only gave me a few inches of zipper, which also bothered me. I didn't want it to force open for lack of slack. Thankfully that didn't happen, but overall I just don't feel warm and fuzzy about it. I will buy a different brand for my other mattress. I haven't moved in a while so we'll see if he stays where he is. I will update my review if I encounter any reinflation issues.
