Tools and Hardware Reviews of ITW Space Bag Vacuum-Seal Storage Bags, Set of 3
Customer Review: Heavy Duty Contractor Trash Bags "Just as Good"
Summary: 1 Stars
Space bags are cheaply made, if your not careful you'll rip the seams out of them, but even if you are careful the bag will not keep air out for very long. Air like water is nearly impossible to keep out of anything that it surrounds so if your looking for "space saving" get a box of Contractor's Heavy Duty Trash Bags and fold your items placing them into the bag, gather the bag around the vacuum cleaner hose, when the air is removed tie a knot in the bag. Like the Space Bag the air will leak back into the Contractor's bag but the knot and the seams will hold, you've gained space and it cost you about a quarter.Customer Review: Dont Bother!
Summary: 1 Stars
Some years ago I bought this product as it is a good idea, we all need the extra space we can get, right! Well the oh-so-easy zip machanism is totally useless, it does little to create the air-tight seam youre promised, if fact I spent about an hour anguishing over getting my airtight seam - even without items in the bag. Defeated I gave it back to the store.
Recently I bought the bags again, thinking they may have fixed the problem and gave them another try. Once again I battled with the oh-so-useless zip mechanism and promplty took the item back. My freezer bags have more guts than these things.
Customer Review: really wanted to love them, but can't!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these about 3 months ago while i was on business in Florida. I was so excited to get back to the UK and vaccuum pack everything in sight! My excitement turned out to be short lived as only 1 out of the 3 bags worked. I was convinced that I was doing something wrong, but after reading the previous reviews, I now know different.
The customer service is even worse - I called them from the UK about 10 weeks ago, and am still waiting for the replacements to arrive!!
You'll probably still go ahead and buy them just out of curiousity, but I wish I hadn't.
Customer Review: Create your own Space Bags!
Summary: 1 Stars
If these bags don't hold air, as advertised, then do as I do and create your own. I use extra heavy garbage bags and suck out the air with my vacumn cleaner. Twist and tie the end with a tight string or rope. The problem I have is that if I don't get the tie really tight the air SLOWLY leaks out. I had considered buying Space Bags because I thought they would NOT leak. However, it sounds as though some of these bags leak faster than my own garbage bags. In that case, I will just keep using my own method.Customer Review: Bags reinflate
Summary: 1 Stars
I thought this would be a great product when i saw the infomercial. In fact I regret ever buying it. The bags reinflate in a matter of days. the first set I bought did that, and i thought it was me not doing it properly. Then I bought a second set with the same problem (bags reinflate and tear very easily). the worse is that space bag does not stand behind its product. it will cost me more than the product is worth to send it back, just to have them replace (no refund). Please don't buy these space bags.
