These new bags are poorly made. The tab above the lock tears immediately when you try to open them. I looked at it closely right out of the box and noticed many of them were torn already so the slightest pull would tear them completely. I thought I had a bad box but over the holidays I noticed this issue occurred at parties and homes. Poor poor product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

When opening a new freezer bag (gallon) the side seam tears. I have had to throw out numerous new bags because of this issue. Whats up with that?

I bought these a month ago after a bulk shopping trip thinking it would be a great way to still freeze a lot of the excess goods since my vacuum sealer stopped working. Unfortunately these bags leaked from each bottom corner on every single bag I used and the bottom of my deep freezer is covered in meat and vegetable juices. I do not recommend.

Ziploc has always been so dependable but quality has gone downhill. Same low quality as the lower cost brands now. No reason to spend the extra money on them. Plastic consistently rips from the zip and doesn't lock as easily as it used to.

I always used Ziploc but this last bunch I got are terrible. I have thrown out at least half of the 38 that came in the box. When I opened them they ripped down the side making them unusable.

These bags are terrible against freezer burn. I use to love them because they were so durable and thick. Not anymore. Now they're really thin and fragile and rather useless.

I have always insisted on Ziploc bags, nothing else...My husband was processing some meat last night and he complained constantly, the bags rip at the bottom and do not seal as they used to...I garden and store all the ceggies I can in bags and had experienced the same thing...the plastic is just as thick and durable...we are now going to search out other bagging options.....Please restore the oldie but goodie bags...please
