pulled the first strap (almost) tight...and the threading all fell apart. WTH? Lightweight and cheap, but completely fell apart. Oh well.

Después de varios usos se descosió una de las tiras de compresión, la tela es demasiado ligera, una rasgadura pequeña puede ser el fin de de esta bolsa.

I wasn't thrilled with this product. It was cheaply made, with cheap material and it got torn up at the seams and otherwise during first use. I'll admit, I wasn't delicate with it, but I certainly wasn't abusing it either. I feel like it could be tougher, especially given its purpose.

I've got an old army down filled sleeping bag and this put it in it's place. Should've bought this years ago. Thanks. Great Price, Excellent Value

We lost the original bag for one of our sleeping bags and it has no straps or ties, so we decided to try this. Now, if you have a bulky or heavy weight sleeping bag, I am not sure it would work. The bag we used it for was a standard “cool” weather coleman bag purchased at a box store. For that, it worked great. We rolled it and it slid oerfectly inside the bag. There was a little room on top where it cinches, so perhaps if you stuffed it instead of rolling it, you may fit a larger bag.

Buena bolsa multiusos, ideal para el sleeping bag. Buen material y buen tamaño. También se puede utilizar para ir de camping ya que resiste el viaje

This compression sack isn't that great. The straps on the side easily tear off the actual fabric which basically do nothing since you want it as tight as possible. The top closure doesn't actually compress anything down either, it just kind of closes. If you are looking for a compression sack for some sort of garment/sleeping bag, I would go somewhere else. This is just poorly made and shouldn't really be labeled as a compression sack, more of just a bag to hold things.

We bought these to put our new sleeping bags in (storage sacks were not included). The diameter fits perfectly with plenty of room in the end for a small pillow or something. With only a sleeping bag, the compression straps are somewhat off-center, but still function fine. This is a terrific value, will add a lot of protection to the sleeping bags and seem like they should last a long time.

As other reviewers have mentioned, the stuff sack is made of rather thin nylon fabric and isn't exactly gray in color. I really wanted to give this product a better rating because all I needed was a sack to carry/store my sleeping bags. I tend to be on the cheaper side and take pride in finding good values. I was a little disappointed with the stuff sack, but the price was much lower than other stuff sacks so I won't complain too much. Thus the ok rating.As mentioned, the stuff sack is made from thin nylon. I have a windbreaker jacket that is thin and it feels a lot thicker than the material used for the stuff sack. I read the other reviews and figured it was probably thin material, but I didn't realize just how thin until I received the sacks (I bought two). I was concerned the sacks would not be durable but was hopeful they would work for my simple purposes.I have two Ozark Trails sleeping bags. I tried to roll them as tightly as possible as the bag isn't all that wide in circumference. With a lot of effort and a bit of struggle, I was able to get the two sleeping bags into the stuff sacks. The bags are fine lengthwise, but the width (diameter) is pretty tight for sleeping bags. Surprisingly, the stuff sack didn't rip.The compression straps seemed fine. They don't look to be the most durable, but they appeared to be doable. Unfortunately, my sleeping bags made the stuff sack bulge so much that the straps closed ok, but they didn't compress anything. In other words, for my purposes, the sack would have worked the same without the straps. The straps did provide something of a handhold if you didn't want to use the end strap or top pull string as handles.So I was happy that I got the sleeping bags into the stuff sack. I was a bit irritated at how much effort it took to get the sleeping bags rolled to a size that would fit in the sacks (and then only with a lot of effort). I was quite unhappy that one sack tore when taking one of the sleeping bags out of it. So now I have one stuff sack that is usable and the other is worthless now. That's after the first use, too.I can't imagine the other stuff sack lasting very long. It served it's purpose for one overnight camping trip, though. Would I recommend this product? It depends on what you need it for. I wouldn't recommend it for sleeping bags unless it's a fleece liner or a very thin sleeping bag. For other purposes, I'm sure it could still be handy. For under $10, set your expectations accordingly and you won't have much of a complaint and not much of a loss if it doesn't work out for your needs.

First of all, the dimensions on the bag are stated correctly 23" H- 18 3/4 W "when laid flat" when stuffed it is 11" wide before you compress it. Still plenty big enough room to stuff a big bag and liner. To me the color looks like a very dark grey or graphite. It really doesn't matter, it's going to work the same regardless of the color. The material is thin but if you use it with a little respect it holds up fine. I own 2 and have used them several times without any problems. Only gave it 4 stars due to the fact you have to keep in mind that it is a thin $6.18 bag and if you treat it like a $25.00 bag it won't last long. Would recommend to others.

I bought three of these bags for a camping trip. First, they are big - I can fit two sleeping bags into them (and not lightweight bags).Then I tried to compress them by pulling on the straps. the buckle broke.I pulled the other straps more gently, and managed to shrink the diameter by an inch or two. The next bag, one of the straps broke. The next bag, the buckle broke.If you're going to compress, do it extremely gently. Or accept that you have bought a sack, not a compression sack.

These are good quality stuff bags, and they are just the right size for even extra large sleeping bags and tents. We did have one strap tear off in the middle of one, but it was easy to re-attach. They could be a little heavier nylon, time will tell.
