Fellowes storage diskette box

Advantages: Storage problems solved easily
Disadvantages: None!

...plastic gizmo which you run along the upper edge of the bag so pressing together the zipper type closure to make an airtight seal. This done you then insert the nozzle of your vacuum cleaner into the special one way valve and literally suck the air out. The bag compresses around the contents as the air is removed and flattens the whole package into an easily stored and transportable slab. It was quite amazing just how small a parcel my pile of clobber became! The whole process was quick and easy thanks to clear instructions on the box. JML state that the bags will compress your clothing and other textiles in seconds giving 300% more storage space in cupboards, drawers and wardrobes. The bags also protect against damp, dust, dirt and bugs. They are made for JML in China and are re-usable and recyclable. They are suitable for most... Read review

Advantages: Space Saving Ideas for Home and Abroad
Disadvantages: None I can think of

...I love this idea, whoever thought this up is a genius. A lot of families have storage problems my main pain in the backside is lack of room for excess bedding that i keep spare for guests and what not, So this is magnificent, how the air can be sucked out of the bag with any pipe vacuum cleaner and reduce the size of package to less than a quarter of the size. Brilliant for duvets and pillows i might add and to top it all off it keeps all those bugs away and when you do unpack them they smell as good as the day you washed them and put the items in there. Excellent I would rate these to anybody you can even use them for going abroad and storing your much loved items and reducing space which we all know must happen when traveling on a plane think of the goodies you can bring back !! Although I have never tries them in my suitcase while... Read review

Advantages: Saves so much space.
Disadvantages: If filled up too, too much, it is very heavy.

...These vacuum storage bags are very handy to use, very easy, very convenient. It really saves space specially when you're trying to tidy up old clothes and duvets at home. Just put all the materials inside and vacuum the air out. It lasts for a very long time, because i've been using mine on and off for 5 years now. it is safe to use as long as you know your weight limit of carrying things. Very good value for money, bought mine from JML and Argos, for £9.99 for 2 large bags. Sometimes they do have a bargain of that same price but with 1 medium bag free. It's good for sorting out winter clothes, spring clothes, summer clothes and duvets. One helpful tip wash the clothes and dry very well, then fold it. Put a perfumed sachet in the bag and it will smell good until you will be needing the clothes again.... Read review
