No valve and the first packing torn.

The bag is basically a large Ziplock bag as for the kitchen. He seems, unfortunately, not more stable than the kitchen products. When you first unpack it is torn when closing. This is basically very difficult, because one must permanently compress the bag and thereby compress the 30cm wide Palatinate. During bags for storing clothes have a valve, this bag has not like, you have to squeeze it and get shut simultaneously.

Overall, I think this is a stuff sack, the tears at the first packing in peace and home away from home has no added value, where you have to open it so daily and close when you are traveling, for example, with the backpack. that's too bad. I try him return and go for a different product if I find one.
