Ratings & Reviews for Hefty Shrink Pak Clear Vacuum Cube Storage Bags

Would like to give less than one star

I just purchased this product.Put three blankets in the product.Went to seal the bag, realize the whole back of the bag was ripped completely open.I don't know how it would rip open by putting three blankets in it.Sitting on a table I'd also add a picture.But for some reason, the picture comes out too big

Buy tape to seal them

Better than more expensive brand, but the seal does not work. Tape it closed.

Excellent for duvets, bedspreads, and comforters

We bought these as we are moving 900 miles away to our new home and we needed to compact the amount of items to be in shortterm storage. We reduced the number of storage and moving boxes by using the xl cubes for all of our blankets, duvets, and comforters. Phenomenal!!

Do not seal

Greetings, I purchased a package of 3 Jumbo Shrink-Pak cubes with hand pump. After placing two quilts in the cube I used a vacuum cleaner to remove the air from the bag. The hand pump was of no use. Once I removed the air I took the vacuum cleaner hose off of the bag. The air then returned to the bag. I did check to make sure that the cubes had sealed at the top. The valve was not working. As I use bags like this when I travel for a longer period of time I looked for something in the box to c...

Terrible

I bought 3 boxes and at least 1 out of each box lost its shrinkage. They were also very hard to close. The plastic closer kept coming off.

Pros and cons

So we got the 3 cube pack with hand pump… Pros 1. Great for comforters and large bedding items 2. Reduced the space taken up by about 1/6 the space it normally would. 3. Keeps everything clean and away from dust and bugs. Cons 1. That hand pump is a joke it’s so small 2. Compressing bedding fibers and leaving them compressed reduces the warmth of the bedding overtime. 3. Rip bag open easily In all I love the cubes overall I just wish the cubes came in smaller sizes so I could ne...

Product good

Brought just 2 weeks ago and the bags are good but the pump is terrible.

Will not stay sealed

The bags will not hold a tight seal I have got the 2 orange lines on the bags, then triple checked them after vacuuming they do not stay tight and air gets back in.

Gives exact details

I just bought these bags, and just. Love them. They are the perfect size for “bigger” stuff! For blankets, and other large things that need to be stored. And with the “Hefty” brand you can’t go wrong.

With hand pump

Bags are fine but paid more for the one with a hand pump included the go camping with where we don't have electricity and it does not work very well

Love these!

I have several of these bags and they are perfect for storing linens when we move. We’re an army family and have moved 4 times in just 3 years. We’re have used a lot of these bags! I don’t want my clean linens going into a cardboard box so I use these bags to keep them clean and fresh! They are great!

Good idea

I bought these with the pump included to help with moving linens to my new house. So not pleased!!! I couldn’t get the pump to suck out any air. The bags were hard to close but I would think that’s a good thing. I won’t buy again & will probably donate the ones I have

Easy to use.

Used for storing addl. bedding after a move. Easy to use and seal is effective

Red Plus Yellow Never Made Orange

I bought a box of Hefty 4-XL Cubes and was excited to store my winter blankets. No matter how many times I slid the slider to join the red and yellow, I was never able to achieve orange. I sucked the air out and by the next day the bags were all filled with air. I thought maybe it was a defective box, after all they were Hefty and should be good. Foolishly, I bought another box and the same problem occurred. So, I will never buy Hefty vacuum shrink bags again. I have used other brands and ne...

XL bags

So much more durable the the other guys. Larger bags. Easier to actually handle the bags themselves. Sealed with ease. I am a hefty user and plan to stay that way. Good product. Thank you.

Great seal!

I bought the 4 pack and it worked so well with no issues in the seal!

Amazed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] this is the first time using a shrink-pak product - AMAZING what you could fit into a bag - and then to use your regular sweeper to flatten it out. EASY and will be using for the next move in day at the college!

2 of 4 no seal

Bought these to pack to move 2 of 4 wouldn't seal.!

Great for what I needed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I grabbed these to have on hand in case I needed to store some extra stuff because my house just doesn't have as much storage as I would like. Unfortunately my cat tends massage and then pee on these kind of bags so I need the kind that can easily sealed inside a tote or something else so a cube shape is the perfect start to fitting them in a tote then vacuuming down. Or vacuuming them down and then putting them in the tote. Some of the large...

nice large size

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like how big these are for storing large items or corralling smaller items too. The valve was too big to use with the attachment on the vacuum that I have. therefore, I used the pressing method which was effective.
