vacuum storage bags...

[BettyOoh]

hi, i've got some baby clothes that i want to keep but stored stuff in our house generally goes mouldy and musty. has anyone used any vacuum storage bags with any success? (the ones where you stick your vacuum nozzle in the top and suck the air out) online reviews seem pretty negative. any brand suggestions or other storage ideas gladly accepted!

I've used them and found them good. They do take in air over time, so you need to suck it out again periodically. I got ours from ebay - can't remember the brand, but I don't think you need to spend ££££

The Lakeland ones I bought were useless, which is a shame, as the idea is fantastic. If I could find some that were guaranteed to work I'd buy loads.

Lakeland ones are fine for duvets and pillows - I've had some for years and they have been reused many times.

thanks for your replies. am still in a quandry though, i think i might just take my chances and give some a go.

The ones I bought from Argos are great. You have to make sure you seal the bag properly (obviously). I put last years' summer clothes in 2 big bags and stuck them under my bed and when I got them out again, they were still fresh etc.
