So disappointed by the pervasive chemical smell. I put the box in the closet and it stunk up the hallway. When, holding my nose, I put a bag in the garbage can, the smell stunk up the kitchen. Took the box and put it outside the back door. Whenever the door was opened, the smell came in the house.

These aren't your typical 13 gal trash bags, so when I checked the first one out, my first thought was where is the rest of it??? but they'll do for cleaning out the vehicles and other smaller stuff. Just not big enough for our 10 gal can.. (it literally doesn't work in it)

Purchased before worked great. Fit just right on my rectangular under the counter trash can. Now they are too small and I have to struggle, even tearing the bag sometimes. Now I’m still stuck with about 100 left. 3 products I’m reviewing today, failed to review but after 3 dissatisfied purchases I decided to comment on all 3?

I’ve used these bags fir years and been very satisfied but this last box stinks! The odor is so bad it makes me sick and the smell even lingers on my hands. I don’t know what they’ve done but they need to fix it! I’d rather smell the garbage! I won’t buy these again.

I used to purchase these bags for years. Loved them cause they were strong, tall enough for my can and gripped around the can so it stayed put......but the last box I purchased just a couple of weeks ago said new and improved...well, it was new but certainly NOT improved. Each bag seemed smaller and EACH ONE FELL INTO THE CAN. Would not grip at all. What happened????? I think I used 15 bags and each one failed and just went straight in as soon as any piece of garbage got thrown in. Had to constantly stick my hand in there to pull it up. I had enough and even though I have over 175 bags left, I went to the store and purchased some Glad brand bags that does the job....yes, they cost more but I don't have to reach far down into the garbage every time I try to take it out. Will never purchase again unless they bring back the old product. Next time I'm at Sam's I'll return these to see if they will give a refund.

I have always bought these bags and they have always been great. First, they changed to "Power Flex" allowing the bags to stretch, but I didn't notice any problems. The last box I bought says "new and improved" on it, but they are much worse! The top of the bag is way too big, whereas before, they stretched to fit over the top of the garbage pail. Now, they fall into the pail as soon as you put garbage in. I'm very disappointed as I now have 200 of them!

There is no more stretch to these bags at all. They rip extremely easy on the sides and you can't use the drawstring feature any more and they also rip just trying to pull out of my trash can and they also leak. I have purchased these bags from SAMs club for over 7 plus years and they use to be as good as the regular glad trash bags but now they are making them as cheap as possible and still charging the same price as before if not more. I will NEVER purchase anything from members mark again especially their trash bags. I am extremely upset that I have a new box to go through before I can buy GLAD BRAND from now on. You've lost a loyal customer Member's Mark

The drawstring don't seem to be held together very good at the seam. If it doesn't break off when I try to fit it over the trashcan (more often break off than not), than it'll break apart when I try to tie the 2 sides together. First I thought maybe the bag was too full or too heavy, but when the load was only half full and very light, the tie still broke at the seam. It's very annoying I must say.

There are a few negative reviews here, and I'm wondering if we used the same product! I think the scent on mine is lavender. It was strong when I first lined the garbage can but it balanced out within a few hours. The bags are overlapped in the box and are easy to pull out. The fit is great as is strength and durability. Very economical! Great purchase!

Happy with this product
