Looking to get a new travel backpack for air travel (i only travel with 1 backpack) and wheeled luggage for road travel. Are these new vacuum backpacks a gimmick or do they actually work? What do you guys use that has been reliable and can take a beating?
>>2748229The are useful for specific cases but often are sold for lazy people who don't know how to fold or roll clothing. Sure they do save space at the end of the day but it's often minimal due to the bags needing to remain in either a specific shape, be HEAVILY squeezed or vacuumed to get all air out, or so on. Not to mention these things get in the way and can be a PAIN in the ass if you get randomly selected for your luggage to be checked. The best advice is learn to not over pack and rubber bands to hold clothes together or rolled up are far cheaper and easier to use.t. fell for the vacuum bag meme
