As long as you are careful when opening them so they don’t rip, they are great!

I really tried with these and I really wanted to support this idea but they are just not good quality. If you can get it open, you have probably already ripped the bag to do so. I have 2 stars because they are compostable so I don't feel as bad throwing them away.

I would rather these negative stars if I could. The zip top is incredibly strong, and the bag itself is incredibly fragile, so matter how delicate you are when trying to open it the bag rips away from the zip top. Sometimes even the plastic on the zip top rips away from itself. I would rather use, wash, and reuse regular plastic bags than buy these ever again.

These are the worst zip lock style bags ever. I cannot open even one without ripping the bag. So much for trying to be environmentally responsible, they all end up in the trash. Will NEVER buy again. Waste of money!

I’ve always bought this brand so I didn’t think to read the reviews on these bags. Unfortunately they are a waste and it is close to impossible to open them without ripping them. Maybe they need to change the closure to a zipper instead.

Horrible zip

Mary H - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
Great concept, horrible design on the zip part. There’s maybe an 1/8 inch above the zip part to grasp to pull the two sides apart for opening. Unless you have fingers the size of a toddlers, this bag is nothing more than a frustrating, inconvenient waste of money. After cutting and/or ripping them open after the first half dozen, I tossed them in the trash.

I REALLY REALLY wanted to like these but I didn’t even get to use them before they completely fell apart on me…. I can’t even open the bags without them ripping… I’m all for not using plastic but it makes it difficult when the products you do offer don’t even hold up.

Agree with others that they all (every single one) falls apart and tears just trying to open it to use it. I’ve bought these before and they worked well. Now they are trash. I hope the manufacturer fixes the error in the compound. I hate using traditional plastic bags, but this is not a reasonable alternative.

If I could give this 0 stars I would. These bags are a waste of money. IF you can pry it open to put anything in, it splits open at the bottom and falls apart.

I really wanted to give these bags a shot but EVERY SINGLE BAG was impossible to open without ripping the edges off. The bag itself is a great idea but it's a huge waste of money when you can't even open them.

I used to LOVE these bags! The last few that I've purchased in 2022 have been complete GARBAGE! EVERY SINGLE BAG RIPS now. I don't know why they changed the closure, but the previous version was better. The plus side is they are sturdy bags, besides the faulty closure.

I really wanted to like these because they’re better for the environment. However, they’re difficult to open and close. You can’t open them without ripping a hole in them. Also, they don’t preserve food. The food immediately goes bad or stale.

Just like plastic zipper bags but more opaque. I use them just like I used to use plastic gallon zipper bags. But, now, I don't worry as much about creating waste and pollution. Great invention! Highly recommend!
