These are great storage bags.  I got mine for Christmas decorations.  One bag held 12' of very thick decorated garland and still had room to store light items on top.  I was surprised at how much I could get into each bag - ordered 3 and they held all my decorations.  I like that it is not rigid, and though plastic - it seems very durable.  One of my bags did have some weight to it but the handles seem to hold it and I saw no sign of them giving or tearing.
