VMstr Travel Vacuum Storage Bags with Electric Pump (USB Pump + 8 Combo Bags)

Having used vacuum bags before, I was skeptical of this product. But, as I was limited on space for an upcoming trip, I decided to try them. I liked the idea of a travel pump because sometimes I don't have access to a regular vacuum cleaner, and I'm not a fan of rolling out the air (compression).I opened the package and I was pleased that the bags were the right size for my Monos rollaboard. I loaded up some bags, and used the pump on the first one. It works, but it takes awhile. The nice part about that is it didn't seem to need me to hold it in place, so I was able to go do something else while it did its work.The second bag I lost patience and used my vacuum. Definitely faster and possibly better air removal.Then came the actual test: will it actually hold?we are 48 hours later and the seal is still holding on both bags.

When I discovered how much clothes I could store in these bags to travel with by plane, I was floored. It is crazy how much I can store clothes in and travel with. This made me so happy when I travel by airplane. I also use these on road trips. I love this set.

These bags held up on our trip to Paris in the winter! We were able to pack sweaters and pants in a suitcase that would’ve been to small for the clothes otherwise. The bags held up multiple times being opened and resealed

These do not stay deflated. What a waste of time and money. Didn’t even send what is pictured. Pure garbage.

I bought these a couple years ago, and the 8 combo pack was the same as the first picture: 4 sizes, all pretty small, and they were PERFECT. I love that I can get them in a backpack, that they're a great size for one outfit per bag.I wanted a few more, so I went back to my orders, clicked on my previous purchase, and because the first picture still shows the 4 different sizes, I bought it.Nope. Turns out (and subsequently pictures and descriptions show this) that there's only 3 sizes and they're much bigger. One outfit isn't enough to fill the bag, they're too wide for my backpack, and they aren't at all what I needed.I get that products change. But having accurate pictures would be helpful, especially for those of us buying again.I guess I'm off to search for a different brand with smaller bags.

Purchased these for an upcoming trip to Australia and New Zealand to maximize space. Tested two of them out. They both held the seal for over 24 hours! Probably would have lasted longer, but I broke the seal. Very happy with the results! I only wish there was a bag that was smaller than the smallest one in the set (9 bags: 3-23x15, 3-19.5x15, 3 -15x15...approximate measures (in inches), might be 15.5, but that includes the zipper space) - a 9x9 or two would be nice for undergarments! They seem very durable and should survive a long trip.The vacuum pump worked great and it's compact for travel (4x1.5 in). It has both USB and Type C charger adapters, super convenient!Excited to put these to use!

A group of friends and I planned a 15 day trek through Italy. So we were determined to travel VERY light. We each had a regular carry-on luggage and a 21qt. Backpack. My boyfriend ordered a a set and I ordered a set. We each took a lot of clothes. Like 20 outfits I think. We were impressed! We mainly used the medium and small bags. The large was too wide for the carry-on. But they were enough! We used to roll up our clothes and with these bags the idea is the opposite. You want the clothing as flat as possible. You will definitely need to make time to use them I think it took us around an hour each time because you have to be somewhat strategic about how many items and what they are. Definitely used our body weight to help flatten and found it easier to pack and squeeze down on the floor. The least amount of folds the better off you are! The little machine was ideal. Compact, not too loud, easy to use. We packed and unpacked almost every other day so we got the hang of it after the first couple of times. I hope it lasts a few more times but for our 15 day trek they were perfect. Life savers actually. I can’t imagine dragging a bigger suitcase than a carry-on. Perfect solution for that.

Out of the 6 bags used 2 stayed compressed, the others lost the compression within a few minutes. If all the bags worked it would have been 5 stars. The compressor is small but does a great job.
