VAGO Baggage Compression Device (Review + Giveaway!)

Product Review

Can you believe that one year has just zoomed past us like that?! We are in the second last month of 2017, and with most examinations ending within this week, I believe many families are planning and preparing to go for year-end vacations soon. My family is really excited because we’ll be heading to Japan in two weeks’ time – It’s my girls’ first trip there! Weather’s going to be chilly, so we have to bring along many thick sweaters and jackets, so packing for the trip is going to be quite tedious – I hope we can squeeze everything into our luggage! Fret not if you are in the same situation as us, because I’ve got a great device to recommend to you today!

Introducing the VAGO Baggage Compression Device! (In 4 pretty colors, no less!)

We tried the device last night and we are pleased to report that IT IS SO EASY TO USE! Too many reasons why you should totally get hold of one of these, especially if you travel often:

1. Small & Compact

The device is only the size of my palm, so it’s easy to bring it along on your trips. You know how our luggage is always more packed and heavier on our return trip because clothes have been worn and we probably went crazy on our holiday shopping? Bringing this device along helps you to ‘shrink’ your clothes and stuffs into a tight vacuum bag so that you save space in your luggage! It weighs only 77g,  by the way.

2. Super Easy To Use

All you need to do is to connect the device to your VAGO vacuum bag (via a duct), plug in any USB charger and switch it on with the press of a button. All the excess air gets sucked out, and your stuffs get compressed into a small pack. My kids figured out how to use it completely on their own – If my kids can do it, so can you.

Plus, the device is smart enough to know when to stop when there is no more air for it to suck out. Haha!

3. Saves Space So That You Can Buy More

Shopping is one of the top reasons why we travel overseas, isn’t it? Vacuum-packing your stuffs in your luggage will save space so that you can squeeze in more shopping loots! Especially if you are going for a vacation in a cold country and you need to bring along thick jackets which are not heavy but just very bulky & takes up luggage space, this is totally the way to go.

It went from this:

4. Makes Your Luggage Neat

I am not an OCD, but even I like the idea of having a very neat and tidy luggage. Putting everything into vacuum bags will help you compartmentalize your items and packing becomes easier and neater. Win-win!
