Ziplock freezer bags are NOT air tight. When I suck all the air out and seal, 10 minutes later there's air back in the bag. Very disappointed in the false advertising.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The stay open bags are awful especially whenever it comes to freezing things they have reduced the amount of plastic used and you may as well just go ahead and pour whatever you put in the bag all over yourself I have not pulled a single bag out of the freezer yet that has not been torn I have ended up with hamburger blood down my leg chicken blood pork the whole nine. Where the pleats are is so incredibly thin and I've even had the seam down the side of the bag bust they are incredibly poorly made. I would strongly encourage going back to the original design.

We utilize these bags for environmental soil assessments and discovered that there are volatile organic compounds (VOCs) specifically in the Stay Open Design. Previously, Ziploc gallon bags were inert and did not result in VOCs readings from our photoionization detector (PID).

I have struggled with this bag. Very few seal on the first swipe. Most of the time I have to go over and over. Never have I had so much frustration with a bag sealing. I thought perhaps I had a bad batch?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. my wife loves Ziploc bags. She uses them frequently to store baked goods and to keep things frozen that require a solid seal. Ziploc offers that and the quality isn't diminished.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the product reimbursement and exchange for my honest review. Ziploc grip and sealed gallon, freezer bags or a wonderful product. they open and close, easily, allowing no air to enter the bag. I like how strong and durable they are and their stay open design that makes filling easy.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. These gallon freezer bags are extremely strong and do not leak. They are more durable than most generic brands I have tried. I love that they can stand up as you are filling them. They are also very easy to close, unlike some other brands I have tried.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I've been using ziploc bags for many years and they are always great quality, so does this one. I found them big enough to have space for meat for my big family. It is durable enough and I use it for my freezer. Great quality, I will buy them again and again.
