I would like to confirm that I can Hang the bag in the closet and the hanger won't affect the vacuum?

The bag will hang nicely in the closet without effecting the vacuum. There is a separate hook on inside for clothes to hang from.

No it won't...but be aware, the bag can get very heavy, depending on how many items you put in it!

Yes, to both your questions, It has saved me a lost of space when changing out my winter and summer clothes in my main closet.

Never have to worry about that - when tote is filled, it never moves. Mine does not move at all, even if empty.

I would buy some of those thick storage bags that you can attach a vacuum cleaner to! You know, the ones you can put clothes in etc...This would do a great job of removing all the air and would only take a few seconds to do. I should probably patent this idea!

I've never used those handy storage vacuum sealed bags, but the vacuum should have enough power to do that. Judy

Yes, otherwise the vacuum will float or tip over. Attach the weights. That will also help it stay close to the ground.

Yes, there are holes at each end where the hanging bar goes through the top of the bag. I have had my clothes in the bag for over three years and have not found any pests within the bags. I also draped dryer sheets over the bar at each end to see if it helped to repel them.

I don't know because I haven't tried. But I just checked and the hanger is held in place by snaps. It's very secure. I suppose after you unsnap it you could roll up the organizer. Hope this helps.

The bag is a garbage bag. If you are asking if it could be used for storage of, for example, clothes, the issue would be that the repelling odor only last for a few days. You could stick a bag in a closet to discourage rodents, but you would need to do a new bag, perhaps twice a week.We are working on a rodent problem in the kitchen. By sticking one of these bags into a rodent hole, it stopped intrusions through that location. However, I did change the bag regularly.

There is a typical square plug that we insert into wall near floor. The other end is a small straw-sized diameter that is inserted into small hole on _top_ of the vac. Vac quite heavy ( great solid quality) so we would not choose to put on a wall. We utilized former vac platform to place it on loosely, on floor. Others may have better info on hanger.. But doubt that plug would not be necessary.

It just hangs on the wall hanger; there is a little plug that you have to insert into the vacuum. There is a groove in the wall hanger that you can insert the plug cord into in order to keep it handy.

Yes, the section that you use to hang is essentially two strips of fabric with very good velcro on it. Mine is hanging on a wire bar in my daughter's closet with zero issues.

I cannot answer this question, because at first I used the vac. quite a lot, and then I put it aside for months. I am using it again, but have not changed the bag yet. To be honest with you, I don't know when I will need to. I am hoping 'it' will let me know somehow. I am very happy with the product.

No. But I suppose the vacuum can still be used if the gutter is accessible.

The bag should keep dust out in regular conditions. It's a paper type bag with a zipper in the front. The only opening, when zipped, is where the top of the hangar comes out. I keep it in the closet so it's fine. If it were somewhere with swirling dust or wind- then it might permit dust inside. It's clearly not intended as a permanent, heirloom storage system.

You can definitely use the ziplock-and-squeeze approach. And you'll need to do that if there's a lot of liquid in the bag. I just think that vacuum sealers are cool.

Mango--No, don't take down the closet rod--that's what the velcro closure is for at the top of the bag! It's a little awkward, but it actually works great: open up the velcro strip all the way across the top, and spread the bag open as wide as you can. The round reinforced holes for the closet rod will then be open at the top, so you can position the bag on the rod. My assumption is that if you already have clothes hanging on the rod, you can actually place the bag around the hanging clothes--but I couldn't manage it; you probably have to be taller and more flexible than I am to do it this way. Anyway, once you have the bag positioned, so the open holes are more or less around the rod, seal the velcro closure at the top of the bag, closing up the rod holes as well as the opening across the top. I found it was helpful to have the bag unzipped while I did this, so I could reach up inside the bag and smooth the two edges together better, but this may not be necessary for everyone. You'll want to make sure you have those extra plastic rings on the closet rod as well, as they will help to lift the "roof" of the bag to protect the clothes inside. The whole thing may look a bit lopsided at first, but once you get everything sealed up with clothes inside, it works (and looks) fine.

You can do one of 2 things. Hit Manual Seal (with the bag in the vacuum area) and it will suck for a second or so then seal. Or you can hit the start button and then hit the manual seal to stop the vacuum process. Hope this works, I surely like mine.
