Protecting suits in my closet... How does this hanging "suit bag" look?

I'm looking for a little cheap insurance and peace of mind here. I recently finished law school and upgraded all my suits and professional clothing. The Jos A Bank and Mens Warehouse stuff has been stricken from my closets and replaced with much nicer stuff, understandably I want to protect them from moths, dust, etc. Granted, most suits will be worn in rotation but some are more seasonal in nature.

The only issue I ever had was ~8 years ago, a few moth holes on a Jones NY suit.

So how does something like this look:

It appears well reviewed and cheap enough. I've heard plenty of mixed things on moth balls, cedar, etc.

For seasonal suits and sweaters I simply hang them in my closet. Once the weather changes I get them cleaned and then hang them in these 100% cotton garment bags from the Container Store. I have cedar in my closets. I've never had a problem with moths since using them.

They have these in many different sizes. They also have a larger on with built in shelves for folded sweaters that I use.
