    Hello,
    Ive just bought two coil bags 16x16
    believe me or not I don't know how to roll them properly. I can't find anything on the Internet.
    Is there any picture or video explaining?
    Thanks

    Pick a corner, get the air out of it and start rolling. When you get it to where it's about all you can do hook some bungees around it.

    Cover this or cover that they all need rolling at some point. Some are better than others.

    It's just like trying to fold a fitted sheet.

    According to the wife, the only person on earth that can fold a fitted sheet is Martha Stewart.

    Not true. My SO can fold them. But she sucks at folding towels or T shirts. Go figure.

    I have been wanting to try a coil bag but this is one of the big reasons I haven't bought one yet.

    i heard they are a waste of money , ive been on the fence about buying a couple , most guys i talk to that have them say they are good if you haul coils daily or weekly and hauling the same size coils everytime..

    According to MY wife who was a former Marine and a former hospital caregiver, watching her fold my bed to medical standard last year... I don't make beds, I just pile it.
