Advantages: Saves loads of room; Protects your clothes when they're not in season

Disadvantages: None

I've been using my pack mate bags for ages because I still live at home so have only got my bedroom to keep all my stuff in. That's alright most of the time but I keep my bedding seperate to everyone elses and it's that sort of stuff that takes up the room.

I've got 3 of the jumbo bags and once they've had all the air sucked out of them. The way they work is that you put all your bedding or whatever into the big flap at the front, then zip it up and use the nozzle of the vacuum to to suck all the air out until it goes wrinkly and as flat as possible.

They are designed to keep your soft stuff safe from bugs and damp so that makes them perfect for putting all your summer clothes into now it's getting too cold to wear vest tops and shorts. I did that today and the whole of my summer wardrobe now fits into a thin bag that I can slide under my chest of drawers until the sun comes out again.

The bag is completely sealed and the clothes always come out smelling proper fresh, the first time I used them I was worried that my clothes would come out with that musty smell that sometimes happens when you store them but it doesn't happen with the bags.

The plastic they're made out of is mega strong and in all the time I've been using them I've never had one rip and the zips and vacuum holes are still strong.

The clothes come out very creased but that's ok because I always wash them again after they've been stored. You can buy cheaper vacuum bags but none of them are as good as these ones, I think I paid £5.00 for each of the jumbo bag and that turned out to be a proper good investment.

Summary: A Wicked Idea!
