Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Honey-Can-Do VAC-01378 Closet Vacuum Pack combo Two-Medium Three-Large, 5-Pack
Customer Review: disappointed
Summary: 2 Stars
I like the space bags better. These are less expensive but they lose air as soon as the vacuum is stopped while you are trying to screw the cap on.Customer Review: Pretty good item, with a few down sides
Summary: 3 Stars
Not a bad item, it actually worked very well. It certainly saves you space. And let's face it, that's the most important thing when you buy these. However, there are a few things that are not all that great; the cap meant to close the air lock when you turn off the vacuum stinks. There are a few seconds when air is certain to leak out because you need make a switch from vacuum tube to the cap. Even when you frantically twist on the cap as fast as you can, you are going to lose that tight vacuum seal. That could have been better, perhaps with a snap on cap for fast closure. Also, the sizing is fairly small and you can't fit much in the bag. It only occurred to me after the fact that no dimensions were disclosed in the description it just says "medium" and "large". In order to fit anything big, you'd probably need the XL size which is sold seperately. That aside, I'd probably get these again, they were much better quality than the brand you see sold at major stores.
Customer Review: Size is Disappointing
Summary: 3 Stars
So far these bags are holding the seal, but when they first arrived I was shocked at how small they were. If these are supposed to be medium and large, I cannot imagine what the manufacturer expects you to put in a small. I was only able to put two (2) regular pillows in the large, when I was hoping to store a comforter. It would have been helpful if the description had included the dimensions instead of what I perceive as misleading generic terms such as medium and large. Hence I will include dimensions here. The actual storage area of the large is 20" x 27" and the medium is 16" x 17".Customer Review: Bags of poor quality
Summary: 1 Stars
I thought I would make a good investment in buying these bags. We were going to use them to pack up a lot of the clothing in the house when we moved out of state and then use them for storage later. WRONG!!
Here are some problems I ran into with them:
1) The bags have a plastic closing piece that CANNOT be lost, otherwise you can't seal the bag back up ever again. It's kind of hard to keep track of things in a big move.
2) 3 of the bags didn't even keep the air tight seal. Go figure!!
3) When we arrived at our new house, one of the bags had ripped right open and clothing spilled out EVERYWHERE!
Let's just say I feel that these bags are a huge waste of time and money. I would rather store things in boxes, the old fashion way!!
Customer Review: Full of hot air, literally

I had tried these space bags years ago and they leaked and did not hold the vacuum...But I thought, ok, it has been several years now, certainly they have improved the product...wrong!!...within 30 minutes of putting my sweaters in a bag for the summer, the vacuum was gone...I would not recommend these type bags at all, they are simply not worth the money...
