Are these bags reusable? I am looking to store a mattress in the garage and bring it out when necessary for guests.

The bags are pretty strong. I placed my mattress several time in the same bag and it was fine. But I do not know how it will go when it is placed in garage where is a chance to break a bag if there is something sharp.

These are basically just giant plastic bags. They are open on one side so I would recommend looking for something that closes if you want to store a mattress in the garage

You can absolutely reuse them. We love these sealers, we have the regular and wide mouth and use jars more often than bags now. Greener and cheaper.

They are not reusable. You will "break" the frozen cubes out of the bag. They are great. Protects ice from contamination, therefore excellent for camping.

I would not recommend it because they are reusable, and they are thicker than other brands. I absolutely love the product and the bags.

Yes. They are of sufficient mil thickness to be able to reuse them. I am careful to wash them thoroughly when I have finished a project and also careful to make sure they are dry (to avoid any mold problem) before folding and putting them away. Great product; I would not hesitate to buy them again.

I've wondered the same thing. I don't think they are supposed to be reusable, but I can reuse them if I keep them clean.

Yes they are reusable, but the cut must be clean and straight. I use a paper cutter. They don't always suck the air out before sealing, but on this newer model I've had better luck.

I wouldn't reuse the bags. The roll allows you cut it down to the needed size. You just seal 1 side. Put your stuff in, vacuum it and seal it shut.

These bags are not reusable since they are ventilated for easy microwave use. Most other FoodSaver Bags are reusable.

It can be reusable as long as you use it on a baby mattress. It doesn't fit any other mattress

Yes, you can take them off and reuse them. We have done this several times.

Not very well. I now use mine to store wood shop stuff. They are a heavy duty zip lock bag. But you never vacuum seal any thing in them for a long amount of time. I will not buy them again

I don't have the real machine in order to use them that way, but I use them in a crock pot and I would be hesitant to try to use the bag again. It would be terribly hard to get the bag clean enough afterward in order to feel 'safe' enough to use it again.

These bags are horrible. They are for one time use only. It was so hard to zip them closed and the hole for the vaccum is cheaply made. Good luck.

Yes. I've used garbage bags too, tied up tightly. Just so long as the bedbugs can't get out.

Yes, I have even ripped holes before and used packing tape to repair and they worked great. I have used the large bags to store our summer sheets and comforter and swap thebwinter ones in...have done this twice so far and still working.

they are intended for restaurants, and restaurants cant reuse. I use them for my everyday packing and the are very durable i don't see why I would trash them.
