Review on Lifewit Foldable Storage Bags - Organize and Protect Your Clothes, Quilts, Blankets, and Bedding - Set of 4, Grey by Brandon Hayes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Sturdy frame/handles; keeps its shape well, withstands heavy loads, folds well. Weak plastic zipper.

They turned out to be very, very convenient. I was surprised how much each pocket could hold. We were able to pack a full queen bed set (including mattress pad and foam pad) into just one bag, leaving room for a few other small to medium sized comforters. You can easily pack 4-5 standard pillows into one bag without the risk of a zipper (more on that below). When empty, the sidewalls are stiff enough to hold themselves up. When inflated, it remains rigid enough to keep the top panel level enough for secure stacking even without perfect placement of contents. The strap handles are heavily reinforced and large enough to comfortably lift bags without too much fuss, even when they're stuffed to the brim. with heavy objects. It would be nice if they had some sort of comfort padding to isolate the rough canvas from the palms, but that's a nitpick. - 1 star: My only complaint is the grossly inadequate zippers; Both the guides and the zipper itself are made out of very thin cheap plastic. I recommend being extremely careful when stacking or carrying them in any way that could put significant force on the zipper guide and advise not to overstuff them to the point of breaking as the zipper will pop off the guides immediately. That being said, this is at least workaroundable and not too difficult to fix (as long as the rails or zip don't break) - so it's definitely an oversight that needs fixing. If you plan on using them primarily for passive/static storage, they're excellent value for money and I wouldn't worry too much about flashes. If you plan on using them frequently or to protect your gear when camping, traveling, etc., be extra careful or expect to replace them in a few years at most. As with all my reviews, I will ALWAYS update my reviews if my opinions or observations change over time, or if there is ever an issue with a product purchased, to reflect this in detail. Unless I update this review to say otherwise, you can rest assured that everything still works as intended.
