40% Off | HIBAG Vacuum Storage Bags

We ordered these to help us pack for our month long bike trip! It is a wonderful product! Easy to use lots of bags and helped us fit everything into our bike suitcase! Plus we used bags for our rain gear in the side saddle bags on the bike! It Recharges so no batteries needed! My only suggestion would be to have colored caps instead of white because they blend in with the beds in hotels and I already lost one since I probably didn’t see it! I highly recommend if your looking to save space and easier than sitting on bags to take the air out!

I’m only giving it a 4 star because one of the bags has a hole somewhere. I have it zipped correctly but it won’t stay sealed. My other bags are doing great and have held up. These bags are large. I was able to pack a lot into them.

These were fantastic bags. I used them to move from Nevada to New York. They held so much and stayed sealed. This is important bc I had another brand as well and only 50% worked. I highly recommend this product if it’s something you are considering. The size variety worked well and the jumbo bags were the best for comforters and blankets. Excellent compression and air retention.

I really struggled with the zipper on these bags. They came with little clips that were supposed to help seal them, but unfortunately, I didn’t find the clips very helpful. The bag I used first had been packed into the box with a wrinkle in it, and that wrinkle made it really hard to get the zipper to close properly in that one section. Because it didn’t seal all the way, the bag started to refill with air shortly after I compressed it, which was frustrating.The zipper ended up being the most difficult and time-consuming part of using these. I had to press pretty hard and go over the seal several times to get it to stay shut. Once I did finally get it closed properly, the bag worked as intended and compressed the contents well. It helped me get my toddler’s old clothes organized and stored away, which I really appreciated.The plastic itself felt a little thinner than other vacuum storage bags I’ve used in the past, but it still held up once sealed. These might work best for lightweight items or as a budget-friendly storage solution when you have a lot to pack away.Pros:✅ Helps compress and organize clothes once properly sealed✅ Comes with clips to assist with zipping✅ Good size for storing baby or toddler clothesCons:❌ Zipper is difficult to use and may not seal well on the first try❌ Wrinkles in packaging can affect seal quality❌ Plastic feels thinner than other brands❌ Vacuum will fail if zipper is not perfectly closed

I’m not impressed by this variety pack of vacuum bags. I’m leaving this review after a year, when most of the bags are gone. That means I’m writing these details from memory, and some details aren’t 100% accurate. But my memories of these bags leave a lot to be desired. They do exactly what they say, and I did get some good usage out of them. There weren’t any major flaws that made me want to return them, and the product page was accurate. You know exactly what you’re getting. However, I struggle to imagine myself using these bags more often or buying replacements when the last few inevitably break. You’re probably better off buying multi-purpose plastic storage containers, a specific size of bag, or changing your plans entirely.I used these bags for long term storage, for packing a backpack and suitcase on multiple flights, and for saving space on a super long road trip. All of those use cases have some major “maybe don’t do that” problems. I definitely would have struggled more on my road trip without the bags, but that’s because I made terrible plans and ended up having to pack too much of my old apartment into my car. In another review, I said to pack less stuff. That also applies here. I’d you’re considering these bags for very limited space travel, don’t.After using the bags multiple different ways, I realized you realistically only need 3 sizes. The super small hand-compression bags that don’t need a vacuum because you squeeze them with your arms, a medium sized bag for smaller items like multiple shirts, and a mega big bag for large towels and blankets. All the other random sizes are just clutter when you’re looking for a bag that will hold several towels and you accidentally grab a large bag instead of a jumbo bag. So that’s one negative mark on the bags. The package includes way too many weird sizes. It’s perfect if you only need one specific size, but you’ll probably struggle to actually use all the bags effectively. So it makes the value proposition a bit rough. You’re buying a combo pack, but some of it will just become trash. If the manufacturers are reading this, make the three sizes color coded, so you can always grab a specific size from the pile of bags. That would help a lot. You can always leave part of the bag empty, and fold up the unused part. So having more bigger bags would be better.The problem with using the bags as long term storage is that they slowly re-inflate. The valve doesn’t hold in air over a long time. The manual that came with the bags says you should re-vacuum the bags after a while. I forget if it’s 6 weeks or 3 months, but the bags will never hold their vacuum if you store winter clothes inside, which is a major strike against using these for storage. I understand the laws of physics make this a nearly impossible task, but I must ask what the purpose of long term storage is when you need to re-pack your stuff every few months. At that point, just use a different storage method. The bags still hold some vacuum after 6 months, but they’re less “TV infomercial shrinking magic”, and more “big ziploc bag” after they settle in. So a big box is probably just as good.The problem with traveling with vacuum bags, is the traveling part. On an airplane, the weight is a major problem, and you might get caught with an overweight bag if you compress too much stuff into your suitcase, like I did. Plus, it’s just annoying to travel with too much stuff. The more you try to cram into your suitcase, the worse your travel experience will be. Repacking vacuum bags in a hotel before a flight is the worst thing ever. Plus, you need a portable vacuum. I got one of those too. Please, learn from my mistake and pack less stuff. You probably don’t need it, and you can just do laundry on the trip. With one exception I’ll explain at the end.On the road trip, the bags were just as much a liability as an asset. That’s where I found out that vacuum bags love snagging on random corners, and these specific bags love to get giant holes poked in them if they aren’t sitting on a nice flat surface. I broke around 3-4 bags on the trip, which was an unpleasant surprise that left me without enough large bags to keep everything compressed. Plus, I was hotel hopping, which made me realize how horrible it is to have to revacuum your bags when leaving a hotel. Seriously, just pack less stuff. Needing to buy things just to cleanly store the other things you bought is a sign you might have a problem. If you’re depending on vacuum bags to make everything fit ona trip, you’re eventually going to run into an unpleasant surprise when one of them breaks. You could pack extras, but with extra bags with bulky valves and a vacuum pump, you’re really eating into the extra space you thought you’d get by vacuuming all your stuff. These bags really aren’t good for traveling.The one exception for travel were the super-small bags you could hand compress. Those were actually great for hopping between hotels on a road trip. The bags don’t have the plastic valve, so they’re super thin and the empty bags fit anywhere. Instead of a traditional plastic valve with a locking cap, the travel bags use a valve at the bottom of the bag. They have a zipper at the top, but the bottom is technically open. There’s a long S bend at the bottom, and the two sides of the bag will stick to each other. You can force air out by compressing the bag like a balloon, which pushes the valve open to let the air out. But the sides of the bag stick to each other, and block air from getting back inside the bag. Ironically, those seem to hold their vacuum the best, although their design means that you can’t get anywhere as good if a vacuum. I needed some bulky winter pants, but only if I was going to be outside for a long period of time. I also needed to pack them in my backpack instead of my suitcase, so I could change clothes in the middle of the day. Being able to throw those pants into a vacuum bag that I only opened sometimes was great, and the bag kept them in a nice package that was easy to organize in my backpack. I also used the hand bags for emergency clothes, in case I got stuck without my suitcase. Which has happened on 2 out of 3 flights one month in 2024. Family emergencies are rough. If there was a pack of 15 of those bags with no plastic valve, I’d gladly buy them, because it’s really hard to go wrong with having a few extras for traveling. They keep your clothes clean, compact, and organized in the rest of your bag. But this pack only has like, three of them, which isn’t enough for traveling. You’re better off looking somewhere else for vacuum bags, or finding another solution for storage.I’m going to keep the leftover bags around, but in the future I’m probably not going to buy a variety pack of bags. I’m either going to be nothing buy mega jumbo bags for quilts and use them like giant ziplock bags to keep my late grandma’s quilts clean, or I’m going to buy a pack of travel bags because they’re surprisingly good. But I’m not buying this variety pack again.Although I guess it served it’s purpose of helping me figure out what size bags I need, and what qualities I care about in a vacuum bag.
