Samsonite Compression Packing Bags, Clear, 12-Piece Kit (2-Pouch/4-Carry-On/4-Large/2-X-Large

I’m looking forward to using these the next time I go away. They should be useful.

This product arrived the afternoon prior to taking off for 3 week trip with small luggage. It worked unbelievably well. We were going from temps in the 20s to 70s. The product does work the best on puffy things such as polar fleece, down and wool but even t-shirts, socks and underwear benefited from using these compression bags. This is the new way to travel for me. I would totally recommend using these and you will get the hang and tricks from using them. The one weak point is the plastic zip thing so don't lose it. We didn't as we were very careful. and if you do lose one, you can use the zip from any of the other bags, even those in use. This is one great packing invention that helped make our trip a success. Honestly.

It really helped cut down on clothing space for a recent Mexico vacation. We were able to take carry-ons and not check a bag. Do not overfill, or the clothing will become stuck in the Ziploc area. If you can fill it, sit on it and zip it, it will compress nicely.

This is the second time I buy this product. Can't recommend it enough. When you are traveling, they solve your packing problems. Once you are home, they are great to keep your clothes and maximize the space available in your wardrobe. They are useful all year long.

….the large was just too large, the small was just too small, but the medium was just right. My plan was to have a separate pouch for each day of our upcoming European vacation. I wanted to be able to have each day’s clothes in a separate bag, so there was no need to unpack the whole suitcase at each different hotel. If all of the pouches had been the mediums, my plan would have worked perfectly. It’s rather hard to get all the air out for compression packing, especially when using the large, but it was manageable. They seem durable enough as they are made with heavy plastic, but only time will tell. Overall, I maybe rated them a 3 when I could have given them a 4, especially since each pack of 3 was only $7, but I can’t get over my issue with the various sizes.

I like these bags better than the vacuum seal bags. The Samsonite vacuum bags were flimsy and when I got to my destination the compression had leaked due to the thin plastic and very small holes in the plastic. They are more sturdy and just kneeling on them and sealing them works great. Of course I'm missing some of the clips that help close the bags but I'm able to close them with my fingers. I'd buy them again if I needed them.

Fraudulent item. These are advertised as "Samsonite Compression ... 12-Piece Kit" but it's actually only TWO compression bags and 10 useless bags. This bait and switch item should instead notify buyers in one of the first descriptions of the product that only two of 12 bags can be compressed. Also, the seal does not feel strong or premium. It is average or below average. There's no reason to buy this product. You can get 2 compression bags for much less than $16 that I paid. I want a refund but cannot get one because I bought this too soon prior to my travel and the refund window is now closed and now I have only 2 compression bags instead of 12 to use.

I bought these last minute before a trip because the brand new cheap knockoff bags I purchased simply would not stay compressed. I will not make that mistake again. Samsonite is definitely the way to go for these bags. I love the variety of sizes in this package; they worked out very well for my trip, and the larger ones are now being used at home for storing some clothing. I expect these to last for quite a while.

Made packing for a 6 week overseas holiday a dream. Needed both summer and winter clothes, these made it so much easier to pack everything in! Very easy to compress on the go too as not all the bags require a vacuum.

good price, practical packaging

My clothes were not wrinkles or creased, took less room in suitcase as a result of the compression. The only thing not impressed with - the plastic closure button. It just fell off, but the bags sealed completely without this button

Fáciles de usar, resistentes y pueden utilizarse para viajes o almacenamiento. Las que compré ya tienen varias veces de uso y todavía están en perfecto estado.

Works as advertised.
