I use these all the time. Not only for freezer, but for packing for trips, and my crochet projects. I pack dry cat and dog food in them so if i run into a stray I can leave it food. Not all strays can be caught. These bags are so sturdy and useful.. I just love them.

My wife and I are empty-nesters. Preparing meals is often challenging because repetitively cooking only small amounts of food is redundant and time consuming. Cooking larger portions and storing leftovers is commonly the answer. Ziploc bags are the ideal solution for storing leftovers.

Better than the competition, but several limitations. Bags hold up well for short-term, drier items. I froze blueberries and raspberries in gallon bags and they did quite well. I could open and close the bags several times without much trouble. After awhile, the bags did not seal quite as well. For items with more liquid in them, the bags are okay initially, but the corners start to leak, especially after thawing something frozen. They are also not great for use as ice packs. Even with two bags, both sealed, they leaked when the ice melted.

I have torn SO MANY of these bags. I've torn them when I get a brand new one out of the box. I've torn ones that have been lightly used. I've torn them even when I think I'm being careful. The Easy Open Tab is terrible. Until you change your design, I'm buying store brands.

My wife was breading chicken as she has done for years with the gallon freezer bags (because they were tough) when the bottom split and dumped everything out. You can see the weak spot in every bag in the box. Rolling a bit of air in a new bag will cause a failure along the weak spot as if the bag was cut. If JJ cares to see this problem I have photos or will send the bags to you. I hope this is a bad batch and not common.

my favorite bags. I read something recently saying that the storage bags were only slightly thinner than the freezer bags and could be used equally. I ordered both and the freezer bags feel better, and stand up way better in the freezer. the freezer bags are a superior product and worth the extra $

After a few weeks in the freezer, I noticed the bags were getting filled with air. I submerge the bags when sealing to get out as much air as possible. The plastic is tight around the food when I put it in the freezer, but then slowly fills up with air. It does not matter what the food is. This is the only brand that does this. These bags did not always do that.

I have been brand loyal to Ziploc Bags for years. Until now, I have never had any problems. The new style of Ziploc Bags with the easy open tabs leak and tear. They will not hold a seal. I have purchased multiple boxes, thinking it may have been just a few bad bags. It is not just a few, every new style Ziploc Bag with the easy open tabs leak and tear. This used to be a great product. I would not recommend this product to anyone now. In fact I would recommend not buying it at all now.

I would like to congratulate Ziploc on the new design for the freezer bags and sandwich bags. I suffer from rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia and I was having a very difficult time with the old design. The tabs would be very hard for me to open, I could never get an easy grip to open the bags, etc. now, I This is never a problem anymore. I can open the bags really easily, every single time!

After years of use, Ziplock has finally hit bottom. With each new line of freezer bags, they continually lose their quality. These Easy Open bags are the last straw. Leaks, tears, rips and just plain garbage. Now looking for an alternative. Should be called Zipluck. You need lots of luck to get them to work.
