Default Car storage bags

Does anyone have any direct experience with this product? http://carbag.com/buy/car_jacket.html
I need a bag (or 2) for the kind of storage I have. I was thinking of one of those "blow-up" ones, of just a plain car bag, but they take extra people to get the car in, then you have to crawl in to disconnect the battery, etc. I just ordered one to test it.
Comments?

Verne, we have a bunch of them...they work great. Remember to use a regular car cover too, remove battery, leave windows cracked and use the humidity control packages they give you. If you need more info contact me.

WilmasboyL78 is right!

They work great!

They keep your car dust free!

First you must dust your car off with a good clean duster.

Then cover it with a soft indoor type cover.

Then a few more cheaper car covers for insurance.

Maybe a couple of moving blankets.

Then the bag!!!
If you ordered one a little larger than you need, it will be more forgiving in the placement of the car. You will have a lot more bag to zip around it. If the bag is a snug fit, you will have to place the car accurately in the bag in order to zip up around it.

Tom, What do you think these cars are bears that they need to hibernate for the winter. Park them in the garage, cover them with some old sheets or some soft flannel and turn the heat on low. Leave the battery, tires etc. alone. Take them out on the weekends once and a while and boom......Spring is right around the corner!

Thanks for the positive feedback guys. I'll probably have the positioning issues because I ordered one that "just" fits by the dimensions.

I ordered the one that just fits also, just make sure car is centered on bag and it should be no problem.

I have had the car capsule. It is a great product but I didn't enjoy the process of installing the top portion.

Check this out:

Seems like a great product!!
