Vacuum seal held well for over a day. I had a 20 hour flight to Japan, this bag held up perfectly and so did the vacuum seal. I bought a knock off version that didn't work at all, so happy I switched!!
I'm about a 5'11 male, slightly above average, I fit 7 days of clothes in here super easily. For me it was the perfect fit, but keep in mind i have a size 12 shoe, which is quite sizeable. Very happy to have found something that actually worked for me for once. Best part is I didnt have to check this in or pay for it since it counted as my personal item on the plane. Hardly do I ever find a product that matches what I need. This was perfect. If you are a large guy certainly check this out.
customer service very responsive to every question i had every day. i am def a pain of a customer and i know that. but most companies hardly answer and these guys answered right on queue every single time i sent an email in. very happy about that they eased me all the way through
I think this bag nailed every aspect, from the tech to actual functionality. A+ for this bag, we own every color and almost every produyct line you guys have launched. Worth the money 100%, very excited about these unique bags!
Really cool concept. The vacuum compression is actually very impressive. I fit more than normal for sure. I even tested it against my other backpack I normally use.
I didn’t like how little room there was in the main packing compartment, and after vacuum sealing what little you can fit in there, I didn't see that much of a difference.
I found the shoulder straps really uncomfortable, even wearing it for a short period of time my shoulders were aching, and it’s also quite a heavy bag on its own so even packing “light” the weight adds up quick!
You are better off saving money and using seperate vacuum seal compartments in a normal bag.
However on the good side I do like how the bag looks + the colour I chose and I do like how many zip compartments there are and the charging feature is smart. But i was pretty disappointed using it for the first time, and would have rather saved my money
Used this for a week trip to Japan. Fit some camera gear, and plenty of outfits. I went for a wedding so I did bring the Backvac carryon as well. Solid combo set.
Worked perfectly as advertised. Fit 14 days of clothes. I am a smaller woman though. My husband who is 6 ft tall did fit roughly 5-6 days of clothes just as they state on their website.
This bag is perfect for a week long trip out of the country. I didnt get charged baggage fees or have to wait in any lines for anything. Zoomed in and right out. Worked as advertised.
Customer support was great and helpful. Had an issue with my bag and they replaced it with no questions asked. 100% would recommend just based on how they treat you.
The vacuum system worked super well. I was surprised to see it work. I thought the videos online were ingenuine, but I was proved ar wrong. It worked better than the videos showed. So I am thrilled to have been proved wrong.
we brought ours to Italy. worked just as we hoped. tsa lock is a must if you are going to europe which was the reason we bought it. lets just say it actually worked because someone tried pickpocketing us. insane to almost be a victim but luckily we had nothing to worry about
Comes as advertised. You can easily fit 7 days worth of clothes and a pair, shoes/runners plus all your necessary toiletries easily. The internal attached compression bag saves a lot of room when put to use. It actually looks stylish as well as is very comfortable to carry and travel with. 👍👍👍
Worked just as i hoped. Was able to compress all my clothes down into one bag so i didnt need an extra carry on. Was even able to strap my skatebaord to the clips on the side of the bag so i didnt have to check it at the airport.
I've saved a significant amount of money from bag fees with this backpack. I travel about 3 times a year, which is about 6 total flights. Checked bags add up quick when you get charged $65+ each way. So considering that, i've roughly saved an extra $150? Either way super unique product and worked as advertised. Extra bonus when you think of the savings.
I want to share this experience with you.
A colleague and I ordered two Backvacs from the Backvac website. Unfortunately, due to issues beyond the control of this fantastic company (but rather those of the international shipping provider), the two backpacks are being shipped separately.
One of the backpacks arrived as expected, but the other was never delivered to the rightful buyer (I want to emphasize and repeat: this was the courier’s fault, NOT Backvac’s).
After various checks, inquiries, and emails exchanged with their quick and efficient customer service, Backvac decided to send a replacement backpack to make up for the damage caused by third parties, demonstrating understanding and dedication to the customer even for problems beyond their control!
Fantastic products—sturdy and of excellent quality!
Excellent customer service!
