I don't know how you could possibly consider these Ziploc's because they don't lock. They'll shut, but at the slightest pressure they will bust open. I don't even wanna waste my time going into all the details on why these are terrible, but don't waste your money. It's not what you think it is.
I would not buy this product and will stockpile old style

I have been using Ziplock bags for years and I really hate this new design with the "Stand up bottom". By creating the stand up bottom the SIDES ARE SHORTER of the bag. I rely on the length of the bags (both gallon and half gallon bags) to store multiple things in them and many of these things don't fit any more (ie. opened Bacon, meat packages, cheese, ect..) and these things no longer fit. As well the :stand up bottom" once filled DON'T STACK WELL IN FREEZER because they don;t lie flat, things get caught in the corners after freezing, and they flop all over the freezer (ie, blueberries, apples, ect...) I don;t want to upscale to larger size because that just adds more air to freezing. Please go back to the original design or at least offer that one to purchase as well. These "stand up bottom" has some advantages (with loose snacks, ect..) but shortening the bag by folding the sides doesn't make up for it. Perhaps a compromise would be to bring the sides back to original length or have a multipurpose pack with both kinds in it!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Like a regular ziplock bag. However, they do not close at all. The zip lock portion does not meet properly and they don't close at all. Worst design ever!!! If it works don't fix it!!

I have been using Ziplock bags for years and I really really dislike this new design with the "Stand up bottom". It makes the bag seem much smaller and is all around lousy!! Please go back to the original design or at least offer that one to purchase as well. This new bag is just awkward and crummy.

I buy boxes Ziplock bags in bulk & I keep several sizes of Ziplock bags on hand at all times. I recently began using a new 1 gallon size of bags and I had several messes to clean up before I realized the bags were not closing properly. I realize errors happen. My complaint is that I look on this website and I can't find a place to directly complain to the company. Something is wrong in the manufacturing process of the gallon bags and needs to be corrected. I opened another box (that so far is fine) to use but the rest of this box of 38 is probably going to be trashed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product to test for my honest review. I love the zip lock brand never have leeks from the bags once sealed properly. This stay open design was great for dry and light transfers into the bag. Liquids or heave products the bags stayed open but still needed support to prevent spilling.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This greatly helped me out as a mom with a little one who I more often than not only have one hand to use while also doing something else. Having a bag that stays open as I pour in snacks is a game changer!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these ziplocs. I can store meat, snacks, chips, etc. The best part is that the food stays good and doesn't get saggy/bad.
