Many of my friends and I experienced a lot of failures and never got one to last for more than 6 months. Last year we found another source of bags, www.drypakcase.com and so far they seem to be holding up well. The only disadvantage is that they don't have the finger thingy to make turning the on/off knob easier, but that is the only disadvantage. If anybody finds anything any better, please let us know.I want my VHF to work when I need it.
