- = = Form after vacuum -:
The beautiful promotional images suggest that from a thick blanket that is packed into the bag a flat packet is, at a reduction of up to 75% volume. Well, that's true even with the volume, but a flat packet is not doing it. Since naturally the air does not uniformly flow out of such a bag, especially when the vacuum cleaner is attached to a fixed point (valve), the bag deforms during the production of the vacuum. Since all possible shapes come out with. As a rule, it is a curved strongly somewhat edgy. The space reduction into perspective by the fact a little because a flat stacking a plurality of packets is not possible. Since all air from the bag out is, this is no longer flexible but relatively hard. There's also no subsequent form equalizing.

The bag has indeed per se two closures. The "zipper" and the valve, on which the vacuum cleaner. The zipper goes only to really, if the bag is not full or not filled until the end. Otherwise open the easily again. The plastic Something the zipper is also permanently goes off. You have to "draufklippsen" repeatedly. Important tip: The first two had lost their vacuum after a few hours. The reason I found later. When the "Plastic something" only from left to right and right moves to the left, the bag closes Although apparently, but not really. You will notice this when you try with your fingers slightly turn a blind the closure. Therefore: Squeeze the plastic Something really hard with two fingers when the zipper back and is pulled. STRONG! Then this includes and then the vacuum is keeping too tight.
The vacuum cleaner valve is ok in itself. The only problem here, and Note: When the vacuum is created and the funny shapes (see above) revealed the bag deforms like via the valve. Then the lid can be very bad mood screws. But it is actually.
Caution: Not all things are allowed in bags of this kind! The possibility to go broke. Care must be taken.
- = = My conclusion -
I find the idea very good and it works the rationale. In everyday practice, there are still some difficulties. Esp. the strange shape after the vacuum. That's hard for storage. And the limitations prevent realization that storage of many things that are damaged. Under no circumstances, for example, down (and have nunmal many bedclothes) store it. The will never bulky.
The product is high-not bad, but we would not bring us back.
