Freegrace Waterproof Dry Bags Set of 3 - Dry Bag with 2 Zip Lock Seals & Detachable Shoulder Strap, Waist Pouch & Phone Case - Can Be Submerged Into Water for Swimming, Kayak, Rafting & Boating

Kept my phone safe and dry during a week of white water kayaking and rafting in the New River gorge. It was completely submerged multiple times without any leaks. Double zip locks and roll top do exactly as advertised.

The 10L bag is a pretty decent size - it equates to roughly a medium-size purse in terms of its capacity. The material is thick and durable. I have not been able to water-test this bag yet, but I will update after my trip in January.The smallest bag of the 3 passed their 5minute submersiom test, but it feels cheaply made. I personally would not risk putting my cell phone in there and using that bag alone, but if paired with the 10L bag, I'm sure it will work fine.The mid-size bag of the 3 is not good. I ordered two sets, and on one of them, the adhesive used to bind the zip-lock plastic to the outer material completely fell apart, thus rendering it useless, and the other was nearly impossible to open. Yes, I understand that it is important that the zip-locks don't open on their own all willy-nilly, but my thumbs are still red and sore from trying to open it. We very clearly will not be using these pouches on our trip.In all, I'd stay away from the 3pack and see if they just sell the largest bag on its own.Update 2020: We've had the bags for a few years now and utilized them during a handful of trips such as snorkeling, kayaking, and the like. The ziplocks can be a little tough on the hands, but the bags have held strong. We've found just one bag is large enough to carry the things we need for the day-- towels, change of clothes, toiletries, wallets, sunglasses, etc. So we only really take the green bag with us because the black bag gets extra hot when sitting in the sun. We've been using that bag's strap for an old camera case instead-- works great! I still highly recommend the large bag.

I am giving this 5 stars, even though I have not taken it on the trail. It's construction leads me to believe that it will resist any water I subject it to. The reason I am posting this pre-use is to let folks know what they can put in the 20 liter bag. I have viewed the questions and far too many people want to know if it will hold their sleeping bag. In a word, yes. The pictures show the packed bag and then what I put in the bag. I packed my Kelty Tuck 20 sleeping bag and my Kelty Salida 2 tent, complete with rain cover, ground cover, and gear loft (I know, the gear loft takes no room, but I put it in there anyway). Hopefully, folks will see this and then know that the 20 liter will hold their sleeping bag. The packed overall length is about 24 inches, the same as my Winterial self inflating sleeping pad that I no longer use because it is pretty much useless to me, but that is for another review. Assuming that this is actually water proof, it is a winner. Would I take it on a long hike? Nope, much too heavy. And to answer the question about filling it with ice (presumably for your beer) I don't see why not. It appears well constructed.

Worth it all 3 items were water proof as long you close them properly the zip lock on the main bag its a little tough to get closed but when you do no water its getting in anyway all 3 items stuffed with paper towels and submerged in my pool for 15 min and the paper towels where dry

We used all 3 of these products in Cozumel this past week and I was able to take some photos while snorkeling with my Note4 in the phone case. and carry all of our gear on a day trip to a Cenote in the large 20L bag. I tested everything ahead of time with napkins swimming around in my pool for an hour, just to make sure there were no leaks.

The premise of these "waterproof dry bags" are basically a tough (tarpulin type vinyl) bag with the opening that usually required rolling tightly at least 3 times then buckle together and achieve water-tightness. Note that I said water-tightness, I have ordered another brand that was highly rated but still some water went in even after carefully following directions, so "waterproof" is really an exaggerated claim.So was intrigued by this Freegrace brand which has similar setup for water-tightness in addition to a "double zip-lock closure" at the opening. So I carefully zipped the double zips on my new 10L bag, then rolled up tight 3 times and buckled. Did the submersion test for 1 hour, came out and wipe off water droplets on the outside and opened carefully, paper towel inside was indeed dried. Did the same with accompanied smaller "fanny pack", the double zips there are not as reassuring closing as the 10L bag, but still the result was respectable.I am planning to use both bags for lots of water adventures. The cellphone bag I didn't test nor plan on using as I already have a waterproof camera. Whatever sensitive equipment I will put in either bag (cellphone, wallet etc) I still plan on putting them into Ziplock bag first, then the Freegrace as an extra protection. Not planning on having my important gears getting even a chance to get wet.9-5-17 edit: increase 1 more star to a 5 STARS rating:Even though this is not a long term test. But I did a real world test on a recent trip to Hawaii. On a canoe, beach etc test the waterproof Dry Bag came off flying color. It is an extra step to have to zip up the 2 rows of zips inside bag (just like in Ziplock bags) each time before rolling the the top edge 3 times as instructed. But I felt more safe to protect contents to go through these steps. Most other dry bags do not have these zips and one brand that I bought even after rolling up 3 times did not pass the 100% water proof test, thus I returned it..

I go snorkeling and I wanted to be about to keep my stuff safe and dry. we had our money, passport, phones and other stuff inside the bag and it kept everything safe and dry. It does have a funky smell. When i went to the store to look at other "waterproof bags" they were $100 or more. i have found this to be a great investment at a great price.

When you open the bag and the instructions invite you to hold the closed bag under water for 5 minutes to test it (and send it straight back if it leaks at all!) you know it’s a good product. Good quality, easy to use and great value for money!

Good items and having the choice of size is great. Very watertight.

definitely waterproof and very handy when traveling

very handy set of bags that work well.....

Perfect size for me. Use it when out on paddleboard to store keys, phone, camera, something to drink

It’s so good in the water brilliant buy

Brilliant dropped phone in water first day thankfully case did it's job

Yes its waterproof even when submerged :)

Received product in the time frame I was told. Today I tried the products and the degree to which they are water proof.Started with kleenex tissue in the phone case specifically leaving the tissue near the seem. I held the sealed package and held it underwater in the kitchen sink for a few minutes. The tissue was completely dry. Next I put a money belt that will hold my passport, money and cards wrapped with kleenex into the Black waist belt. This has 3 very tight ziplock types seals which fold over twice and then has a hook and loop (velcro) closure. I then submerged the waist pouch in the kitchen sink for a few minutes. Once again everything was completely dry. Last I took the large green dry bag which has two ziplock type seals. I put in paper towel that would lay flat from the bottom of the bag to the top edge. I took this outside and submerged in the pool for a few minutes. This time when I opened the seal the paper towel was wet in spots BUT I completely dried everything and put new dry paper towel in and started to seal the pouch again. This time I heard the seal snap shut. I made sure I carefully sealed both seals returned to the pool and submerged the drybag again. I turned the bag around and made sure it was well submerged. I dried off the outside completely and carefully dried the outer seal before opening. This time the paper towel was dry. I look forward to using this in the fall on a cruise. I saw the strap for carrying but when looking at the strap can be attached by their clip to either side of the handle OR one end to the handle and the other to a very secure ring near the bottom of the bag. This product meets the description provided by the company. I look forward to beach time knowing I can keep my valuables and things I need securely with me in the water or out. Thank You.

So we only travel carry on and this year we are only using bags without wheels so weight is definitely a factor when choosing what to bring. Since our next trip involves a lot of water and sand, i thought a dry bag would be useful for our gear and when i saw this for the price, i thought why not? When i got the package, and picked it up, 1st thing i did was weigh it: 1-1/2 lbs!! 645 grams for a few bags that are supposed to go in your luggage. Last thing we need is for our bags & packing cubes to be heavier than the stuff inside them! We are returning it and spending the $ on sea-to-summit (100 grams for same size with a shoulder strap!)

Dopo aver comprato una sacca simile che non era stagna, ho trovato queste e le ho anche testato rigorosamente con la carta dentro.Tutte le tre sono state immerse e rimaste stagne. Nella più grande ci sono delle chiusure lampo aggiuntive dentro che forse non sono riuscito a chiudere bene, quindi sono entrate alcune gocce di acqua, ma niente come con l'altra sacca che avevo testato e che solo si arrotola senza quelle chiusure interne. La sacca grande anche galleggia bene se lasciate aria dentro.

The bag was big and thick. The phone bag was good at keeping the paper dry but the medium pouch is not waterproof as I zipped all 3 tracks I side and rolled and velcro properly but both bags it was leaking in the corner. Ans one of the neck straps was broken when it arrived which kind of made the neck lanyard useless.**seller was fast to ship me replacements. i have yet to try them out but will update after testing!**

I bought this for seadooing as I am an avid Seadooer. This 3 piece combination is just great. With my old bag I was constantly searching for my phone to take pictures. Now it will be right around my neck. I love the waterproof waist pouch to carry my medication and my id.

Excellent! Got this for our Mexico vacations and we used it all the time, we could fit our go pro, our large Xr Iphones, a towel, sunscreen and our sun glasses, perfect size for 2 people, All our belongings were perfectly safe and dry the entire time, highly recommended

Excellent product.Used for trip to Cuba.Took in water with me,with all valuables,no leaks.Very cool for solo travellers.You can go to the beach by yourself and take all valuables with you into the water with no issues.Awesome for keeping phones,wallets,passport etc.,safe and dry.
