How to Choose the Right Vacuum Storage Bag

Vacuum Storage Bag Features

Below are some important features to look for when finding a trusty vacuum storage bag.

• Double-Zip Seal and Triple-Seal Turbo Valve: When these two work together, you can be certain no air comes out, no air comes in and bags stay completely sealed.
• Stay-On Clips: Although not a necessity for a high-quality vacuum storage bag, these clips are very helpful and will prevent the clips from falling off the zipper or getting lost.
• Hand Pump: Many vacuum storage bags come with an included hand pump. This is helpful if you don't have a vacuum handy, like when you're traveling.
