I love the concept but haven't had a lot of luck with it yet! Great idea though!!

I agree, Got some from Target to store winter things in , in less than 3 weeks they had pushed everything off the shelves, I retured them. However, we purchase some for a for a return trip on vacation. use the hotel vac . that work. now they are used for storage, not space saving-

I hope that doesn't explode. You will have a mountain of batting.

I love those bags. I use these bags to store batting and fleece -- they are the only two things that compress enough, but it leaves room for more fabric :D

Look for the bags that you roll the air out. I took them on a trip where I was allowed only one bag. They have a channel on the 'far' end. You put your stuff in the bag, seal the end and roll. The air goes out the other end and holds well.
