Love it! I think I will try the heavier contractors bag. As the cheapest/most frugal person around,(Great Depression mentality/child) this one appeals to me. Give this a try first before spending dwindling $. The internet ad also shows people just rolling one closed.

I paid ?$20.? for those bags too. They didn't hold. Then I remembered I had tried them some years ago and they didn't hold then either. It could be me not doing it right but I will not make another contribution to the manufacturer.

See...that's why I belong to groups like this....you ladies have just saved me $20.00...that I can spend and justify buying some more fabric and needed notions at J's this Tuesday and use my multiple 40% off cupons. Hubby goes through the line with some and then I follow after him. The Joanne's I go to is pretty flexible on the cupons. ! Besides it satisfies my need/drive to be more and more practical. Thanks again. fmd36 in NH

They work great! I have to switch between my summer and winter clothes every year. Not enough closet space. My fleece vests come out just fine. They may have a few wrinkles in them at first but they fall out quickly. As far as sealing-you have to use the slider to seal the bag. If you don't get a good seal it will fill back up with air and expand. Also small holes will allow the air to come back in. I use a piece of scotch tape and it works great. I highly recommend them. Definitely a space saver. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Keep in mind girls and guys, that fabric stored in plastic tends to deteriorate faster as it needs to breathe. I always store fabric of any kind in cloth bags (pillow cases). Polar fleece may be the one exception, don't know. Just my thoughts!
