Q: I believe the answer to this is yes but is the drawstring also compostable? It feels a bit thicker than the rest of the bag so just clarifying.

Too Delicate - Rips and Tears Too Easily
I'm surprised at how well reviewed this product is. My experience with them is that the rip and tear as you get them out of the box, even when you're careful. They are very fragile. Too fragile. I'll use up the box of these that I have, then get a different, better quality brand and avoid these in the future.

Must buy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I repurchased this product. The bags are strong enough in which you don’t have to double them. Also, I like that they are compostable which is good for the environment.

Perfect for trashcan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this complimentary product from Influenster & Matter in exchange for my honest review. These waste bags held up amazingly! They’re super durable, and I didn’t experience any rips, tears, or leaks. They fit perfectly in our kitchen trash bin and are made from all-natural, plant-based materials, which I really appreciate. The pull-string handles make it extra easy to close and carry when the bag is full, and the material is flexible yet strong. I also love that they lock in odors so well—no unpleasant smells escaping. Overall, these are fantastic eco-friendly waste bags that truly deliver on performance!

Decent
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The bags hold up better than expected for compostable, but the bags start to disintegrate when they get damp. The 3 gallon size is convenient for food scraps because you don’t need to keep a large container or wait a long time before the bag is filled. The product is advertised as BPA‑free and PFAS‑free which is great! The price point seems a bit high.

Easily minimize your carbon print, use compostable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Matter compostable and earth friendly food scrap bags were very durable and easy to use. They held a lot of food waste and did not tear easy. Draw string closure was surprisingly strong. I am very glad it is made from plants and compostable, so I feel I am doing my bit to reduce my carbon print.

Sustainable products are a yes!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm real big on sustainability. I have a compost bucket in my house but it does smell a little funky. These bags helped that. So I have buried one bag in my garden already so we'll see before winter if it disappears. It is already breaking down. I've tried something similar previously and they didn't compost or break down very fast. So we'll have to see how long these take. Yeah to saving the planet from plastics!

Needs work
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Influenster in return for my review. I use this trash bag for my bathroom trashcan and to dispose of cat litter. The materiel is thinner than other trash bags and is more fragile when it comes to bulky garbage. I wish it was more resilient because I like this trash bag and it does its job most of the time. I haven’t noticed any odors.

Holds up great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These held up amazing! Most importantly to me they were super durable and I did not experience any rips or tears. They held a surprising amount of weight with no problem and were perfect for our kitchen trash bin where sometimes it can get very heavy with food scraps. Most importantly, they are made from all natural materials and compost within a year. Sustainability is important to us and it seems like this company has that on the forefront of its mind so we will be purchasing these again.

Strong and sturdy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Strong and sturdy. Strong disposable bags for small trash cans. The pull string handle makes it extra easy to close after use when it’s filled and it’s pretty flexible, so not rips or leaks so far

You won't miss plastic at all!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect sized bag for home composting! The three gallon size allows me to stuff over a week's worth of scraps inside, and the bags are sturdy -no need to use a second layer. Unlike the old corn-based green bags I used to use, these also don't degrade once you put something wet in it! I keep each for a week and they hold up very well. They can be composted at home or in commercial facilities. Love the drawstring (which is every bit as resilient as the ones found on plastic trash bags) for ease of tying up and preventing odors from leaking through. A great addition if you're trying to be a little more environmentally conscious or like compositing at home (plants love it!). Thanks to Matter and Influenster for letting me try this product in exchange for my honest opinion!

Perfect for car trashcan!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These bags are perfect for my car trash cans. So I am a mom who lets her kids eat in the car as long as they throw their trash away. These bags are perfect for that. And they are compostable. I love that. I would 10/10 buy.

Environmentally Friendly and Durable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These compostable bags are great for the car when my boys have orange peels and banana peels from breakfast on the go. They are sturdy and not easily ripped. They fit small trash bins around the house for more environmentally friendly liners as well.

It’s ok
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There is no scent really, the durability is less than a normal trash bag. It takes a full year to fully decompose. There’s a lot of room for just “scraps” so it kinda feels like a waste

Great little trash bag
