Comments about Sea To Summit eVAC Dry Sack - 24 x 11 x 7:

This is a great product to use for your down sleeping bag in case you fall into a river or need some dry clothes on a rainy day. I decided to test this product passed its recommended use, forcing all the air out while fully submerged. The manufacturer says not to, but just to see if compressed it could suck in water through the e-vent. The answer is no. Water does not come in through the e-vent with a slight vaccum, it comes in through the top. If used within the recommended guide lines this is the best "dry" sack I have ever used!

Comments about Sea To Summit eVAC Dry Sack - 24 x 11 x 7:

Used this on a 7 day backpacking trip through Yosemite.
I was able to place all of my clothes in it and compress it down to a nice size that would fit in my frame pack and still give me enough room for other needed items.
It was also convenient when setting up camp at night to toss the sack into the tent to use as a pillow at night and to have my clothes handy (and warm) the next morning.
Only complaint, which is minor, is that it took some time (maybe 30 seconds to a minute) to push all of the air out to compress it.
This sack will accompany me on all future backpacking trips.

Comments about Sea To Summit eVAC Dry Sack - 24 x 11 x 7:

Another reviewer said this dry sack doesn't compress as promised, but I say that's totally untrue! It does require a bit of effort, but I've used this dry sack for 3.5 years now and it always compresses really well.

I carry my down sleeping bag and silk liner in it. After securing the roll top, I lay it on the floor of my tent and kneel on top of it. I can get it so flat that I actually worry about compressing the down in my sleeping bag too much.

I haven't given its water resistance much of a test, but I spilled a fair amount of water on it once and there wasn't a hint of moisure inside the sack afterward. In my opinion, this is a great product!

Comments about Sea To Summit eVAC Dry Sack - 24 x 11 x 7:

I purchased this product and a compression sack from the same manufacturer on the recommendation of REI staff. I have not been disappointed. The compression sack is for my sleeping bag. This sack holds my clothes. Pressing out the air really saves space; real estate is premium on a motorcycle. This bag has held up superbly through 4 x 5000+ mile rides in the past year.

On my latest journey I arrived in late evening during a deluge of a rainstorm. I hastily got my tent up and settled in. I realized in the morning that I hadn't brought in my clothes. This sack was on the ground next to my bike, lying down and mostly submerged. A quick inspection found all the contents dry. I wasn't too surprised as this and the compression sack are both strapped on the passenger seat and easily endure the elements for thousands of miles.

I am now purchasing another to hold my winter riding gear. I highly recommend this product and the compression sack.

Comments about Sea To Summit eVAC Dry Sack - 24 x 11 x 7:

I purchased these at a time where they came in two colors, gold, and blue.

One, compresses my clothes, the other is for dirty clothes. The color coding helps to delineate the content of the bag.

As been previously mentioned, it makes for a great pillow...I used to use my boots!

The formula for quickly removing the air, is as follows: squeeze the bag just ahead of where your clothes leave an airspace, then roll down, and lock the clasp.

Place the bag on the ground, and kneel on it with both knees. If you are using a large bag, then shift your position, until the air is expended.

For me, about 15 seconds, no sweat.

Comments about Sea To Summit eVAC Dry Sack - 24 x 11 x 7:

This product does not get the air out as it promises. Bought this product in the hopes to keep my gear dry and thought it would work well as it says that it compresses down and the event fabric will get the air out.. It doesn't do that at all, I could use this as a flotation device if I needed as it absolutely does not let the air out. My husband bought a granite gear sack that does the trick and I will be switching. This would undoubtedly keep my things dry but I need something that compresses well.
