Storage bags - vacuum to remove air

I bought some of these in Aldi for my 'guest bedlinen and towels'. However having removed the air, my towels look so sad and squished - will they bounce back to fluffiness again when I open the bags for next guest? (I know fluffiness doesn't always equal good drying but, in my eyes, it equals attractiveness!)

I just took baby clothes down from the attic that I vac packed away ten years ago. To me at the time they also squished and wrinkly, when I opened the bags the clothes came out perfect, still smelling of last wash even!

That sounds perfect - thanks very much!

Maybe I should stop buying plastic storage boxes for baby clothes and start buying these!

We've used them for years. No problems. they were fab for moving house. A lot of the summer clothes are stored in them each year. Saves tonnes of space. I pop an a4 page with a note of what's inside on top of the clothes inside before I seal the bag. Then I can find them without opening them all up.

Ah - I should have posted this pre-sealing the bags!
