Title: Space saving vacuum bags
Post by: mheloy on November 25, 2015, 07:28:43 PM

Hi

Can anyone recommend a space saving vacuum bag for camping. Of course we will not bring a vacuum but we have a pump for the air bed. I'm hoping I can use that as a vacuum when packing up. My concern is the hole to sick the air using the air pump.

Thanks

I use bags from the the cheap shop down the road and carry a few extras if one doesn't work!

My 12v air pump works a treat and saves so much space!  ;D

We have a few donna's and they all pack done to the size of just one!!

My pump has 2 holes,  'suck' and 'blow'. Pretty easy for what you need to do. I hope thats what you meant by your last comment!??  ???

Pardon my English

I'm thinking the storage space saver is designed for vacuum cleaners. So the suction hole might not work well with my Coleman 12v pump because of the size of the nozzle.

I guess I just have to try an buy it. I guess.

Thanks

This type doesn't require a vacuum cleaner. We use them all the time travelling.

I have a Coleman 12v air pump and it works reasonably well with the vacuum bags.
