As a single working dad, Ziploc bags were a life saver. I marinated many meals ahead of time and placed them in Ziploc bags to freeze. When I got home from work, I popped them out of the freezer, placed them in water to defrost, and I was ready to prepare meals for my children within 30-45 minutes. Since about a year ago, Ziploc bags began leaking. At first, I thought it was me because I didn't seal them well or they got cut in the freezer. But it's the bags. After reading the reviews, its clear there is a production and quality control problem that the manufacturer must know about by now and are pretending they are just it hearing it from us. Ziploc has lost my business.

We have been using the large freezer bags for years to carry ice on camping trips. I always double bagged for safety in case it leaked and it never happened. The new design not only leaked through the first bag but through the second as well. I have also used the bags to freeze meats and poultry in the past and none of the bags have leaked now every bag leaks. Terrible product looking for something different. Sorry Johnson you loose.

I do a lot of precooking and freezing meals and these are perfect. I’ll make 15lbs of hamburgers at once, freeze 5 bags worth and when a hamburger is wanted for a quick meal, thawed in the microwave with a damp paper towel covering it, it tastes like it came right off the grill!

The new Freezer bags, which are no longer blue, leak. I bought them and would use to store food such as tomato sauce that I made in big batches. When I thaw out the food now they leak! This has happened 3 times now so I will NEVER buy again unless they go back to the blue stronger bags.

I have been using Ziploc freezer bags for years but unfortunately with the new design bags this is about to end. What was the thinking behind the new bags and who tested them? The tabs tear, the seams split and they arethinner than the previous bags. I think Ziploc should go back to the designers for a re-think. I think many consumers will turn to another product . Too bad!!

I have to add my two cents worth to the poor reviews. I used to reuse these bags several times to freeze baked goods and waffles. I still have some bags of the old design and they are holding up much better than the new ones. I've notices several new bags have ripped at the sides near the opening, and all the manual seals fail after the second or third time I open and attempt to reseal them. the colored strips break and seals fail. I'll never buy this design again. It's easy to use - but only one time each!

I always buy these when I go to Sam's club. I bring home the meats and divide them out so we can streatch our savings even more. I don't want to spend all day dividing so we don't fool with generic brands. They dont have that easy open and easy to use color changeing feature Ziploc feature. Ziploc saves me time, money and probably my sanity!

These freezer bags are great ! I cook large quantities of certain foods .Spaghetti , soups , and other foods . Then I fill the bags seal them while removing the air and place them in the freezer where they are food safe for some time . Just pull them out allow to thaw then reheat and you are good to good !

For years I have used only Ziploc bags. That all changed when a few years ago Ziploc changed their highly successful design and switched to a new seal and bag top called 'Easy Open Tab". Quite frankly it may be easier to open, but you'll never know as they are IMPOSSIBLE to close and get a good seal on. Basically SC Johnson ruined the product line with a completely untested and unnecessary change. I can't buy their product anymore and am now forced to use competitor products which actually work and make an easy seal. Really a shame that they ruined their entire product portfolio with this terrible change.

I hate the new zip lock bags. We bought the gallon size with "easy open" tabs... No, they are not easily opened, and regularly the plastic fails before the seal can be unzipped and the bag opened. Some people may say that's good, but what is the use of bagging something if you cant then get it OUT of the bag??
