They don't work

These are good bags overall -- decent size, good weight to the material, but I found that the vacuum part doesn't work. I tried twice, sucked the air out, but I found that the bags just fill right back up again and are back to pre-vacuum size. I was hoping to store some extra bedding under my bed, but since the suction just leaks out, they won't fit. So I have to put them in my linen closet instead. They work to keep dust, etc out and keep the bedding clean, but I would not buy these again. I've been buying Ziploc bags for food storage for years, and never had a problem with them. Too bad they can't translate that to these larger ones.
