Vacuum Storage Bag for King Size Mattress | fit Mattress Up to 14 Inches, Save 80% Space, for Moving, Shipping Storage, with Straps

What a lifesaver. My zipper was missing [just uses my fingers to close it and went over it several times] and the straps that come with it are useless [didnt stay tight]. I was prepared and brought ratchet straps. I used a regular 2 pc (not a stick or cordless) vacuum and it worked great. I probably could have shunk it more but I just needed it to fit in the backseat. The ratchet straps ended up ripping the bag while unloading so be sure to wrap a towel there if you want to reuse. This was a full size foam mattress. So easy to to use and then move around once it was shrunk down. Definitely worth the cost!

It worked well for me. Here's some tips and info that I found helpful. I would say the bag walls are about 2 mils thick. Maybe 3? It's hard to say for sure and I'm not about to try and measure with calipers. That said, thickness is NOT the only measure of the durability of a vacuum bag. This didn't feel like it would readily rip or get a hole. If yours comes with a pinhole or a bad ziplock, I'm sure you can get a replacement free through Amazon. If you develop a hole during use, because of the vacuum nature of the bag, you can seal it with a couple pieces of clear packing tape in an X pattern. Don't use duct tape, because it will peel off over time. If you're worried about damage while you move or in storage, wrap it again in a tarp or drop cloth of a reasonable thickness. Mine did NOT come with metal D-rings on the strap. However, they were pretty heavy duty plastic, so I don't mind. However, I wish they were Velcro so that the excess would stay in place better. Compressing a full size memory foam mattress topper, I ended up with about two extra feet on each strap. It was enough to go around the roll again, but if it has been a little less it would have possibly caused one of the straps to catch during a move or something. You can also just twist the excess around the taught part of the strap, but that can come undone or bunch up. Not a huge issue. When vacuuming, make sure to position the memory foam so that it is directly under the vacuum port. This causes it to pull air through the whole mattress, getting it very compressed. I made that mistake the first time and had to redo the process, because the bag was sealing against the vacuum port and couldn't suck in any more air. Again, not a big deal. Oh, and remove any fitted sheet you have on the topper. It really blocked the air at the vacuum port more than I expected it to. I guess that should have been obvious. Whoops. You can roll the fitted sheet up with the vacuumed mattress afterwards, if you prefer, or put it with your other sheets. I recommend a shop vac for this. Most regular vacuum seal pumps won't be strong enough to fight the memory foam compression. If you don't have one, you should get one. But if that's not an option, just know that it won't compress as much. A shop vac is also strong enough that it will hold itself against the vacuum port, so if you don't have an extra person with you, you can still compress the mattress by yourself. I also recommend a piece of rigid PVC, at least 2 inches (ideally 3-4), that is slightly longer than the width of your mattress. That way, after you walk on the mattress for a bit, you can roll it along the mattress like a large rolling pin. It really helped to compress the pad about 25% more than walking alone. This part is also helpful with two people pushing on the PVC, but it's doable with one person. All in all, I would buy this again if I ever need another. I went from a mattress pad taking up a whole closet, to taking up a wide shelf. Obviously it would take up more space if it was a queen, and a full mattress instead of a pad, but the pad went from a headache to deal with, to something easily tucked away.

This is a great product overall. The quality feels good, and it is very easy to use. The plastic material feels durable and protective, so I feel comfortable using it without worrying that it will tear or get damaged easily. It is also easy to store when not in use, which makes it convenient to keep on hand until needed. For the price, I think it is definitely worth it. It does what it is supposed to do and feels sturdy enough for regular use. The only issue I noticed is that the air does seem to leak out a little over time. However, the straps help hold the mattress in place, so it does not deform too badly or become unusable. That could also be user error, so I would not consider it a major dealbreaker. Overall, this is a useful, protective, and easy-to-store product that works well for the price.

Bought a 10 inch queen memory foam mattress that was way too large to fit in cabinet Murphy bed. Meant to buy a six inch. Instead of returning bought this and used our shop vac to shrink to a size that rolls and stores easily in the Murphy cabinet. This works as described, sealed perfectly, includes straps, is very strong, took maybe 20 minutes to shrink and roll, would have fit an even thicker mattress and saved us the cost of an exchange! Also, if careful, can be reused. Now guests have a really comfy bed!

A vacuum mattress bag WITH velcro straps. Very handy. Used it on a spare queen and it's sitting upright in a closet like a rolled up mat. Easy to move around for 1 person and has been holding the compression well for the past few months. No complaints. Seal seems good so far!

Works well once, then gets holes

If you are trying to store a giant sac, this is your solution. I never write reviews, but when I went looking for something to help me shrink and store my daughter's ultimate sack, I didn't uncover a lot of similar experiences. If you have a sack to squish, this is the way. The bag fit over the giant sack easily, with room to spare. In just a few minutes it was deflated to a portion of the size which made it easy to move, easy to store. Seals great. I expected this to be a lot of work, but it was the easiest thing I did that day. I suspect the experience would be similar with a mattress. Great product. Saved the day!

Helped with what I needed it for. The quality of the straps are pretty bad. They almost instantly ripped off the buckle. I had to use ratchet straps instead. The product itself was okay. I had an issue with the suction but it was an error on my end. It will not work if you have any kind of coverings on it while trying to suck the air out. After I worked out the problem, it made it easy to get my mattress to another location. Keep an eye out for the seal clips that come with this product otherwise you will have a hard time sealing the bag properly. Decent buy. I would just have hoped that the straps were more sturdy.
