Every once in a while we buy the store brand ziplock bags and always returned to name brand ziploc - because name brand ziploc easily close and open and stay closed. These new 'easy open tabs' ziploc brand bags are impossible to close. I will be looking for another brand or going back to store brand as while those weren't as good, they are much better than the new 'improved' ziploc!

I have been using Ziploc bags for over 40 years. Every once in a while during those years I would try another brand and immediately realize why I buy Ziploc brand, they are perfect...well, they used to be...What happened? They will not stay closed! I have a box of 280 bags and so far there have been more that won't close then will. I thought it was a fluke, a random bad batch, but after reading the reviews I think it is an ongoing problem. I have come to the conclusion that I can save money by purchasing the cheap ones at the dollar store instead of spending a premium price for inferior bags.

I have been a long time user of Ziploc - thoroughly enjoy all their products EXCEPT THESE BAGS! The concept of the larger one sided tab is awesome. However, EVERY TIME I open these bags (regardless of size: quart or gallon) the bag rips, tears, comes apart at the purple gripper line. It is so frustrating! I am so disgusted with these bags.

I was brand loyal to Ziploc since 1980's until last week. I was forced to buy other brands because I could not find old zip style Ziploc. I have been fighting to close the easy tabs sandwich bags for months. I can not get them to stay closed, After hoping I zip bag closed I've resorted to folding bag over and taping bag shut. I hope Ziploc brings back old style bags.

Seriously! It's no joke. Your new and improved products are terrible. First, you changed the snap-n-seal food storage containers using thin plastic and changed their size. Now you changed the food bags to thin plastic with a ridiculous easy-open tab but changed the type of plastic. Bring back the old plastic with the same thickness we once enjoyed.

There's a reason that people think of Ziploc as the go to name for resealable bags ... they work great, the closure works the first time, and they're sturdy enough to do the job. Although the new tabs don't make a significant change for me I bet that people with dexterity issues will appreciate it greatly.

Nice to get an item that wasn't in a box 5 times bigger than product...Serious stock holder that knows Wal-Mart drives cost down and passes savings to consumers..Most orders i receive are swimming in a large box...Must be an opportunity because size of packaging comes up...Don't feel comments along this line with added cost are ever addressed since it is ongoing

We thought this was going to be a great change to our ziplock bags. For some reason a bag that is "easy open" can not be closed. The plastic is a lot thinner. It tears easily. Please change them back. In the meantime does anyone know if another brand?

Horrible "new" design. The bags don't close! Easy open yes because you can never get them to close. I run my fingers along the edge over and over again and they never seal. You have to pinch and wiggle the bag to get it to close. I finally gave up and threw them out.

I love the new easy open design on the bags, it makes it so much easier to open without destroying the bag completely. That was a big problem I always had in the past with the older design. The bags are durable and easy to close, I am very pleased with them.
