Tall Kitchen Bags,your choice on brand,there is a bag retainer device inside the can.

Tall kitchen bags. We've used two or three different brands with no problems.

I use regular trash bags. Unlike my automatic electric trash compactor, I have found they work just as well.

Tall kitchen can bags...usually they are white. The best quality you can afford so they are really strong when you compact and push the trash down.

Just a standard size kitchen trash bag is all that's needed. The bags are not special.

Any bags work, I used the gripper bags. However, I do not recommend this can. The mechanism that holds the top in place broke within months and it was no longer useable. Cheap construction. Went back to a normal trash can.

I use the fellow bags that go with this shredder. They are tough and do not get shredding all over the place. I have used regular garbage bags in the past and they are not as efficient.

I use the Kiinde twist bags with mine, works great. Get the starter pack it has the adapters needed.

Food Saver Bags will work properly. I buy whatever is on sale. The different brands all work as good as the others. The Seal-A-Meal however, is the better sealer of the brands I have tried.

We actually don't have a compactor but the bags are large and strong enough for our container which is larger than the standard retail trash bags being sold.

I use the kitchen tall bags. I pick up the slack by twisting the excess to tighten it and push it through the hole in the back of the black insert. It works out perfectly and way cheaper.

Panasonic Type C bags. Envirocare Technologies has bags to fit. I buy mine locally at The Vac Shop. Also Kenmore Canister Type C will also work.

That is very confusing. I would just stick with the standard, which contains 3 bags. Order multiple of those if you need more.

I use Sunbeams TrashRac 5 gallon bags. The bags fit great and stay put while in the can.

If it is a down bag, you might want to avoid squashing the down. I guess the xx large bag would be best, but that is the only size I have used.

I use standard kitchen trash bags. I'm not familiar with planet wise liners...

I use WalMart brand 4 gallon twist tie garbage bags. Perfect size and not expensive.

I use Glad standard tall white trash bags...the ones with the drawstrings. They work just fine!

Hi Mike, The best bulk bags I've found are the Weston Bags. They seal very well and come in both 8 and 11 inch sizes. However I'd recommend buying a 50 foot roll and make your custom sized bags. Less waste, and a bag that will fit the exact size of the item you're vacuuming. Plus by creating your own custom bags they're even less expensive (and they're reusable too just like pre-made bags). It only takes a minute or so to make them and it is really the best way to go IMO.

I finally used the pail-a garbage bag fits it. very nice pail especially like the shape.

I purchased my rolls of bags from http://www.pmgquality.com/productCat90502.ctlg. They have work well for me. But it depends on what you are sealing. Check out the videos on this site or on Utube for more info.

I have used an off brand and they worked fine. Bags do need to have a rough texture on at least one inside surface to seal properly.
