I having been buying these for years but that ends now. The new design is cheap and flimsy and has pinholes in them. I will be shopping for another brand from here on. What a shame.
I've stopped buying the quart size since they've been redesigned. I can't tell you how many i've wasted trying to open or reopen. They tear at the top instead of opening. Then I have to unlock it using my fingernails or just trash it if it's new. It happens to my father-in-law too.
I bought the freezer gallon and quart..they open great and feel sturdy to the bag but the zip feature does not actually seal. Just when I thought it was sealed I packed it to freeze and it busted open all over. The liquids leak out from the seal despite there is nothing left to push together. Disappointment. Why change what works the ziploc bags before these were great never had an issue. Please go back to those, won't buy these again!
I have used Ziploc brand for years- as an educator in my classroom and in my home. These new "easy to open" bags are not only NOT easy, but rip almost every time. I am so disappointed. Too bad I have so many! PLEASE GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL PRODUCT! I loved those! Why "fix it" if it wasn't "broken"!
Why is it that every company with a successful product "redesigns" it so that the "improved" version is a total failure? When you open the "zip-lock" it tears the side of the bag EVERY TIME!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Ziploc has ALWAYS been my "go to" bags when freezing. I have been a Ziploc user for years, especially when canning/freezing season comes in. Recently, I ran out of the older freezer bags I had in stock, and had to buy the new ones. What happened?! I pulled a bag out of the box, and had to look twice to be sure I had picked up the correct ones. They are SO much thinner, had holes in the first 2 I pulled out of the box, and they don't seal as well as the older ones. Epic fail!!! I will be returning the new stock I just bought, (pint, quart and gallon bags) and looking for another brand.
I have been using Ziploc Freezer bags for years without a problem. The last three boxes I have purchased, while opening the bag for use, the zipper portion rips off.... what is happening????
