I've used compression sacks in the past and decided to get this one to help pack clothing on vacation. I was able to get about a week's worth of clothing into this stuff sack and it compressed it down very small to the point that me and my partner were each able to get clothing in one suitcase. This is not waterproof so you do have to be careful about that but the quality is good and I'm able to really cinch down the sack and not fear ripping the material. And as best as I can tell, it does not loosen over time, which is a big plus. Overall, it's a good value for what it does and I'd definitely buy it again. Read more
I have only tried it out at home so far so can't speak to the durability. XL fits my old 3.5lb fill mummy bag easily. A smaller size would probably have been fine as well, but quick and easy is more important to me than size. It was easy to compress the bag down nicely. The seams did not look stressed when I did this. It would have been even better if the two straps with buckles also had the compression strap hardware so they could be quickly lengthened when you are releasing it. This would make it faster to be ready to use it again. It's only a small inconvenience though to have to feed the straps back through to lengthen them. I won't use it very often, but will update this review if it doesn't seem to be holding up to use. Read more
I had thrown together an old-fashioned style bedroll for use in the spring, summer, and Fall and needed something to protect it a bit and not be super loose. Spent quite awhile looking and found this. Needless to say Im quite pleased how it turned out. It fit the dimensions of my bedroll perfectly. We will see how the material holds up in the future but so far I haven't had any issue in regards to the quality and durability of the item. The bedroll isnt anything special. Its just a 7'x4' custom treated canvas tarp as a ground sheet with a 25 inch wide ridgerest foam pad as a base. A 3" thick inflatable matress and two blankets. First one is a 3 season 80% merino wool blanket and the second is military surplus woobie blanket. Not a bad setup and it all fits nicely in the compression sack. Couple that with my bushcraft tools and a tarp and im good to go. Read more

It's a little awkward at first but once I shoved too super thick king sized pillows in it was actually easy to achieve the compression function and saved a lot of space in my over stuffed car for road trip. Not as flat and compressed as the vacuum kind but no suction tool needed so more convenient and stores very small when not in use. Read more
I've been using the Frelaxy Compression Sack for a few weeks now and I'm absolutely in love with it! It has some amazing features that make it stand out from other compression sacks I've used in the past. First of all, the Compression Sack is incredibly durable. I've used it on multiple camping trips and it hasn't shown any signs of wear and tear. It also repels water, which is crucial when you're out in the wilderness. What I love most about this compression sack is how easy it is to use. You simply stuff your gear into the sack, roll down the top a few times, and then clip it shut. The compression straps on the side then allow you to compress the bag down to a much smaller size, making it much easier to pack. The Compression Sack also comes in a variety of sizes, so you can choose the one that best fits your needs. I opted for the medium size, which was perfect for my sleeping bag and other gear, but they also offer larger sizes if you need to pack more stuff. Overall, I'd highly recommend the Frelaxy Compression Sack to anyone looking for a durable and easy-to-use compression sack for their camping or hiking adventures. Read more
18L was the perfect size for a old sleeping bag that was missing the bag. Read more
Bought 2 for motorcycle trips. Major annoyance that lost 2 stars: no instructions. Not even an instruction video on the website. Maybe I'm stupid (nah!) but I spent way too long turning it inside out, fitting the cap in various ways, etc. Once I figured it out, I stuffed one with several days of essentials and tightened it up. Certainly smaller than putting the same load in carry-bags. It it well into my Harley saddlebag and my motorcycle duffle bag. We'll see how they last on an upcoming 3-week trip. Read more
