Why does the big rip every time I open a new one ?!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Ever since I opened the package and started using them, each one rips in the same place with little to no effort. I'm really unhappy and will not be purchasing ever again. It's like as soon as you open the bag it rips on the side seam and you're not even able to use the bag! Terrible.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I never thought that I would write a review about a baggie. And wow so many others have too. What happened to being able to rely on these Ziplock. Both sandwich and gallon have taken a steep dive. And I see that many others agree. I never thought to look up a review for these because of their reliability in the past. Is this the way it's going to stay?

The old ones were excellent quality, the new bags are a lot thinner and easily gets ripped from the zipper end when I open it and I have to move the stuff into a new bag and throw away the old one. If this was intentional so that I will buy more, you guys are sorely mistaken, I have already been buying another brand which seems to be much better quality!

Very disappointed that the bags leak when trying to freeze liquids, even with double and triple bagging and preserving the side seals

The new Freezer bags, which are no longer blue, leak. I bought them and would use to store food such as tomato sauce that I made in big batches. When I thaw out the food now they leak! This has happened 3 times now so I will NEVER buy again unless they go back to the blue stronger bags.

For years I have used only Ziploc bags. That all changed when a few years ago Ziploc changed their highly successful design and switched to a new seal and bag top called 'Easy Open Tab". Quite frankly it may be easier to open, but you'll never know as they are IMPOSSIBLE to close and get a good seal on. Basically SC Johnson ruined the product line with a completely untested and unnecessary change. I can't buy their product anymore and am now forced to use competitor products which actually work and make an easy seal. Really a shame that they ruined their entire product portfolio with this terrible change.

I've used ziploc bags for years but the last year or so I've noticed that they leak when thawing meat. Not from the top, but from the bottom corners. This happens every time. I don't know if it is cheaper or thinner plastic, but frankly I don't trust them anymore. I've gotten in the habit of double bagging for thawing, which means I go through twice as many bags as I should. Freezer, yes, after that, no.

These are not as good as older versions of Ziplock bags. The seams on the sides split very easily.
