Grace Hopper Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 If you’ve used these to get your college student moved to the dorm, did you like them? How many did you need? These are the bags I’m talking about. https://www.amazon.com/VENO-Storage-Backpack-Carrying-Handles/dp/B07J6625YY/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?crid=2GP63HP61F9Q9&keywords=veno+bags+with+zipper+extra+large+heavy+duty&qid=1653273914&sprefix=veno+bag%2Caps%2C95&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyR0JRVElNWEFHSkNUJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMTU5NTE4MVVWUTBUWVBZMU9IVyZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwODkwMDI4MUtDTU5BVkhMRTFTOSZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX3Bob25lX3NlYXJjaF9hdGYmYWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrUmVkaXJlY3QmZG9Ob3RMb2dDbGljaz10cnVl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teachermom2834 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 We did use the IKEA bags that look similar. I think my boys each just had 4 and I gave my son’s girlfriend a set of 4. My boys took very little with them, however, and went to school in warm climates so they didn’t have a lot of bulky clothes. Definitely a good purchase. They stored easily because they fold up so small and they have been used over and over for several moves. My son who was a 2018 high school grad has moved so many times. So many. And he still uses them. I don’t know anything about these bags but I clicked on the link and they look like the IKEA ones. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilaclady Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Yes I think they are like the ikea bags. We love that they are light but they do tear easily if you pack too tight. My dd has 6 and they have been very useful and don’t take up space once used. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassia Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 We have them in addition to the Ikea bags. Dd prefers them to the Ikea ones. I don't remember how many we needed though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmmetler Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 We have a set of them. I love that they fit easily and stack in my minivan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plansrme Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 My daughter has a set or two of the Ikea Frakta bags (purchased from Amazon) and a set of off-brand also from Amazon, but not the ones you linked. The Ikea bags have made it through multiple moves and have taken much abuse. Several of the off-brand bags tore in the very first move. BUT, regardless of brand, the bags are way easier to pack and carry than cardboard boxes and are easy to store in the dorm room or apartment until the next move. She started with 2 4 packs but did not use them all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
