The media could not be loaded.  We got these for storing old baby clothes and they worked pretty well.I was intrigued by the fact that a hand pump was included with the bags to remove the air. I had my initial doubts about the effectiveness of the pump but it actually worked really well. My three year old was able to use the pump almost all by himself and take most of the air out of the smallest size bag. We never actually used a vacuum because my son liked using the pump haha.We used 4 bags so far and out of those 4, one bag had a small hole. It was located right at the center of fold marks. It seemed like the tight fold/packaging created a weak spot that broke when the air was removed. I think I managed to sort of seal it with superglue, but that bag is probably expanding in the storage bin now. Honestly, I think these things should be rolled up instead of folded as folding creates particular weak spots.It would also be nice if the size of the bags were labeled so that you didn't need to unfold each one to figure out if it was a small, medium, or large.As a whole, they are easy to use, but I do question the durability of the bags. If folding them can cause a tear in at least one out of four, I don't have high hopes for the rest. It is a cheaper price though per count than others. You decide what's more important: quality or cost.

Although some are working as they should, 2 out of the 6 in this package have a leak and are filling back up with air

Not great just fine.

The bag tore after one use. I was delicate… but it comes with many of them, that’s the plus side:) U have to manually suction the air out

Air leaked out!

Some of the bags had holes

All items were new in the box. The price was fair. The hand pump is a nice feature. My issue with the bags, no matter what brand, is that after about a week they all re-inflate. I store them flat, I do not over fill them, and I have tried different levels of air removal from the bag. I just wish I knew why they never stay compacted. Is it just me and bad luck or are they just not quality controlled.
