Do the trash bags release easily? I have an older one that tears the bags when tugging to get them out!

I have found that if I pack the trash down into the bag to get as much as I can into the bag before taking it out it will be harder to get out and will catch on the screws from the handles. What I did to prevent that is cover the screws with packing tape and it doesn't happen any longer. Or not stuff the bags so full. Hope this helps.

Yes it's pretty easy to empty out and it's plastic, so not very heavy. You can try to use thin trash bag liner to keep it cleaner, i didn't and so there was a lot of paper dust and particles stuck all over the place. I'm sure it's easy enough to rinse off if it bothered me enough, but it's been fine as is. Hope this helps. =)

I own this system and have not had any problems with bags leaking. I have had a couple items stored for 6 weeks and still sealed thoroughly. My Mother has this same system and did have a few problems with random bags. She e-mailed the company and they sent her a coupon for a couple of boxes of free freezer bags.

Center pull ? I have a 3.5 year old schnoodle and been using these bags for long time. never had a problem. I put the roll in my pocket and tear one off when needed.

I am not finding this a problem. I think all plastic bags are a bit difficult to open by the nature of what they are made of which makes them stick together. I don't think these are any worse than the average.

I had no problem! I hold the handles and shake, and it slides right out. Of course, the deeper it is into the bag, the harder you have to shake. I found it easier to gradually pull it out a bit as the bag gets fuller. It's also easier if you crush the leaves down every so often as you are filling the bag. I start out with it on its side, and as it gets full, place it upright to finish it off.

You really need to take it outside and hose it down. I actually found it easier to line it with regular trash bags. I throw them out as they get dirty. Not as frequently as I thought I would have to.

I've not had that problem, but i did clean a lot of lint from it. I turned it over and first cleaned the brushes. There was a lot if lintbehind them that i just pulled out with my fingers. You may need better bags too.

It depends. Each one is different. It definitely seems like they aren't being packed by people who have been trained to pack theses because my bags were all over the place. I pulled all mine out and replaced it myself because there was a couple of bags right in my punching area. Since doing so there has been no movement of the bags.

Hi There I have had no trouble with them as long as you place the pack with the opening of the fold on the left, then pull the wipes out steady and quick pulling a bit downward all should be ok . My 82 yr old Mother is handling them great. Plus the quality out does charmin 100 x.... Good Luck... It is the small things in life that make us happy.....

I overload my bags regularly and have no issues. The only time our bags come off is when we remove them for cleaning. The three different curves in the handle prevent the bags from shifting much.

Absolutely! I've changed the contents many times. They're made of much thicker material than a food storage type baggie. You open the bag, put in your items, seal it, in the middle of the bag there is a plastic cap you open, you attach a vacuum hose and suck out all of the air. Some have said their bags leak, there is a slider to close it, but I always manually press my hand along, pressing the edges together to make sure it's sealed tight. I haven't had one let go yet.

Yes, the liner comes out which makes it easier to pull your bag of trash out and put a new one in.

We did the same thing, but I can't remember for sure. I think my husband knocked it apart with his hand and then redid it. Also you will find it helpful to put something heavy in the bottom of it before you put the bag in. This will help as an aid when you go to remove the bag.

I dont find them difficult to clean. I wipe mine out with Clorox wipes between changes if they scratch through the bags or something.

Thanks for the info. We have 2 dogs and I'm worried that I'll have to change the bag once a week! It seemed like I was constantly dumping out the bagless one, a chore I really didn't like! I don't mind removing the bags, it's just that the cost of buying a lot of them can add up. We'll see how it goes - vacuum just arrived today!

Yes they are pretty easy (as long as you're not trying to open the wrong end). I am now on my second box/order of these bags and will continue order as needed. Out of 2000 bags the only problem I've had is about 3 bags have not torn apart easy and a small hole will be in the bottom. But it's easy to see before you use it. Never had a problem other wise.
