What do you use the clear plastic pouch that's attached to the inside for? I'm thinking maybe soiled clothes, but it doesn't zip...

Yeah your right it's for like soiled clothes, spit up rag, but mainly for wet rags. Like the ones you don't throw away. Mine doesn't zip either hut it does fold over. I guess just so it doesn't yuckie up the other things in the bag :)

I've used it for soiled clothes, blankets, nothing dripping wet. I bring 2 zip lock bags and use the pouch as back up.

honestly don't know...didn't use the pouch...i think my wife used it for putting colic drops and stuff like that in it. I'm sure it can be used for anything.

no insulation pouch, just a plastic strap around the top with a loop on it for hooking it onto something...

It'll get dirty fast. Probably stained too. The contents inside MAY be safe, unless oil get on the the zipper area, I could see contents getting damaged.

Perhaps I am fortunate, but have had no issue with the zipper. My objection is to the smell of the contents once heated. Again, it might just be me. It has done the job otherwisel

I assume you are using for storage, not travel. This depends on how much air you take out and somewhat how you press on the bag as it is deflated. I deflate the most with blankets, quilts and pillows. I used the small ones for hoodies, and fluffier clothes in the drawer. I did not use for finer clothing. I think certain clothes folded will come out wrinkled. I use them when I travel and manually push out the air, if I gently fold, lay in stack, then slide in bag, roll out air, the clothes come out looking fine. I always select clothes based on wrinkle potential at purchase. I just dont iron unless absolutely necessary. I assume you are using for storage, not travel.

Unless these tubs had an airtight seal (which they don't-- just a normal plastic storage tub seal), moisture might be an issue. I'd try bagging the clothes tightly in the tubs. The vacuum bags where you suck out all the air and shrink a tall pile of clothes to a couple inches is probably your best bet. This should also take care of the bug issue. For short term storage of everyday clothing that doesn't require "archival level preservation", I'd recommend these tubs with the aforementioned vacuum sealed bags.

This is definitely a problem for ours. On one side, the front zipper catches the internal flap. We just stopped using that zipper and zip from the other side. It was too frustrating to keep fixing.

No, I have a pouch that is made to fit the scent tabs in My cloth bag that zips around the dirt collecting bag.

I have to put it in a ziplock sandwich container to keep it from leaking. I put other stuff in with it.

To get the small bags to work you: 1.Pack your clothing (It does work better if you don't over fill), 2.Then close the zipper, Then I slightly opened the zipper in a corner and continued with Step 3. Roll out the air. I think by just slightly opening the zipper in 1 spot a one-way air valve is created because my clothes compressed just fine. It was super easy to use and didn't refill with air. And I have been able to reuse the bags with no problems.

Its a plastic pouch that is somewhat heftier than a baggie. Not nearly as good as the 1st generation freshette which was a ripstop nylon zippered pouch that was rubber coated on the inside.

The pouch is a thick, sturdy plastic zipper bag. It's fine but nothing special. I'm planning to find something a little larger to put mine in. I'd like to be able to carry a small water bottle for immediate rinsing of the device. I'm happy with the Freshette. I wouldn't let the bag make the decision for you.

It would probably make the bag damp if something leaked. It is more like a cloth material. Over all though has been a great lunch bag. Very durable.

The zipper is plastic, sort of like a zip-lock bag. It is on the outside of the curtain with a clear plastic 'window' to view your device through. Even if you don't zip it closed, water would have to go over the top and run down the outside to get near the pouch. Even if the zipper broke it would be unlikely that water would get into the pouch.

There isn't an inside bin or anything like that, so you really do need to use it with bags. The inside of the container has lots of ridges so it doesn't lend to bagless use anyway.

Hmm, I didn't notice a plastic zipper bag! We put it in a plastic store bag until we get home then let it dry like a regular towel. Once dry, it goes back into the sports bag!

It has two zippers, one is a mesh and the other is plastic. If you want the mesh you would unzip the plastic and roll it so the mesh is only being used.
