Review on ✈️ VMSTR Travel Vacuum Storage Bags: Electric Pump, Medium & Small Space Saver Bags for Travel and Home Use by Mary Arakaki

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good but not great

For travel it's nice to reduce the size of things packed, but when you bring them home you have to repeat the effort of repacking, hence the concept of this kind of thing Great . However, keep in mind that the block itself is relatively large and heavy, and reducing the volume of the packed items does not reduce their weight. So the more you fit in a suitcase, the heavier it gets. This device needs to be plugged in to work and is quite slow, plus it doesn't reliably remove all air, but is useful when you're away from home when an outlet is available. You should also be aware that wrinkle-prone items require attention once they are freed from compression. However, it is excellent for fleece, socks and underwear, sweatshirts and the like. It is intuitive to use and has instructions. The bags included in the kit are relatively durable and are the right size for suitcases. The tongue on the bag is not connected and can easily be lost, but it's like all "space bags". It's not easy to seal a bag well without a pull tab, so keep an eye on it.

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • makes angry
