About this deal

There are a few things to bear in mind when buying your vacuum storage bags. Here's a few questions to ask yourself:

These Hibag air tight bags are a terrific budget option for travel. Each set contains 6 medium size & 6 large size reusable storage bags. Mumsnetters swear by vacuum storage bags as a way to easily store jeans, bedding sets, curtains and cushions. It's fair to say, however, that not all vacuum storage bags are made equal. We’ve scoured the forums for tried and tested product recommendations to highlight the best vacuum storage bags to use at home or on your next family holiday. If you’re taking a multiday trip, consider a water-resistant compression bag. One unexpected shower could ruin multiple nights of sleep. FAQ

The zipper on these bags is secure, to ensure no air gets out, and the double color design on the zipper lets you easily see that it is properly closed. Most of the compression cubes we tested were made of nylon which is known for being an ultra-durable material for soft goods like sports bags and suitcases. Polyester is lighter in weight than nylon but it’s a little less durable than nylon.

Bags rated for temperatures much below 0°F may not fit in a compression bag. If you’re still not sure which size to buy, look up your specific sleeping bag’s stats. If you don’t have a mummy bag, or you have a sleeping bag filled with synthetic material, it’s best to opt for a larger compression bag.

Which are the best vacuum storage bags?

Depending on the climate and destination, water resistance may be nonnegotiable. A wet sleeping bag usually means a poor night’s sleep, so look for compression bags that protect their contents from moisture. Many are lined with PVC, polyethylene, or other material that prevents rain from seeping in. Those that are truly waterproof may have a roll top rather than or in addition to a zipper. Unzip the vacuum bag (choosing an appropriately sized bag for your contents). Carefully add the contents and arrange them to make the best use of the space. One user took hers to Europe, and shares, “I really like the weight of the bags, sturdy, not flimsy, and they are a good size. I also like that the USB cord on the pump is a decent length.” They are even super useful between trips, you can store your winter comforter and pillows, or seasonal wardrobe clothes in your closet, and barely use up any space.

This may sound obvious, but the best vacuum storage bags are the ones that compress well and don’t leak, keeping your clothes compact and airtight until the point you choose to reopen the bag. Finally, we weighed up which bags were best for each storage requirement to bring you our definitive list. About the authorSometimes natural is better, but when it comes to compression bags, the best are made from synthetic materials like nylon or polyester.
