Stasher Bag wins praise in reviews for durable, leak-resistant silicone storage that replaces single‑use plastic, performs in freezer, microwave, dishwasher, and even sous vide, and comes in versatile, space‑saving sizes and colors. However, many reviewers flag persistent drawbacks: tough-to-clean seams, slow drying that can lead to odors or mildew, occasional staining or smell retention, tricky openings, and rare tears or imperfect seals with liquids—making bowls/stand-up styles preferred for ease of use.

  • In general, silicone bags can be difficult to clean and are obviously not as malleable as a disposable plastic bag, so it may be less versatile (depending on what you're using it for). Know what you're getting into ahead of time! All that being said, Stasher is definitely the highest quality and most delightful of the silicone bag brands I've tested. Thick, resistant to acquiring smells or food color transfer, and seals well.

  • Still the king of the silicone sandwich bag. The material quality is far superior to the cheaper ones you can find. The investment is steep, which is the biggest deterrent.

  • These are hard to clean and just not functional. Don't really live up to the sustainability claims. Just cause extra clutter in the kitchen. Would rather use a stackable glass container.

  • I received a sandwich bag as a gift a few years ago. It is durable and the colors are pretty. It's nice that their bags can be labeled, too. I find it hard to open, though, and wish the seal were designed differently. Also, crumbs get caught in the various crevices inside (which also makes it a bit challenging to clean) and I think it should be shaped differently to prevent that.

  • I love these for storing cheese. They wash up great in the dishwasher. They’re the best reusable I have bought, besides glass.

  • Meh. I love the concept of these - I hate using throw away zip lock bags because they are so wasteful and bad for the environment, but with these guys, I feel like it's hard to keep them clean and smell good. Especially after storing more "smelly items" in them, I find it hard to get the scent out, and sometimes there's a bit of a dry but slimy feeling film left on them after washing - not sure how to better describe! I think these are a great gift for your eco conscious friend. I wish the cleaning experience was easier though, and I find they take up more space when storing than traditional zip lock bags that fit better into your small nooks.

  • I switched to stasher bags in my household about 3 years ago and never looked back. It wasn't nearly as hard for me to make the switch as I assumed it would be. The only reason I docked a point was for 1. They are a little pricey 2. A bit difficult to handwash but if you have a dishwasher then easy peasy ! They have amazing sizes and color ways to choose from . Very strong zipper !!!

  • Out of every reusable zip bag this brand has to be my favorite. So sleek and doesn’t ever just pop open by itself like I’ve seen with some others.

  • By far the superior reusable bag. I have other brands too and they are SO hard to zip closed. These are easy to close and open and stay sealed. Also super easy to clean. They also dry much faster than the others., I don't understand the magic. I want to replace all of my baggies with these!

  • LOVE my stasher bags. High quality, durable, and convenient. I use them for food, freezing, and even travel. HIGHLY recommend!

  • I’m up for anything reusable to both save my money and be environmentally conscious. Stasher is more expensive than other brands but they last for a long time.

  • I love everything about this product. The only difficulty is getting in the nooks and crannies when you’re cleaning (even pre-cleaning before the dishwasher). Otherwise, I have multiple of these and love to use for leftovers!

  • We've been using these for about 4 months now. They're so durable and easy to open/close. And easy to cleanI am obsessed. We'll be slowly stalking up our supply. They are worth the money.

  • I love my Stasher bags! Game changer was when I realized I *also* could use them for organizing my purse and for travel.

  • I use my stasher bags for hikes and roadtrips to put my snacks in. I don't store anything long-term in there cause they're not airtight so crackers and things can go stale after a couple days. But they stay shut and are super durable.

  • I have always tried to save the planet in different ways. This reusable bag adorable and amazing.

  • Such a great product! I love my stashers!!! The only thing I wish about mine specifically is that I purchased them before they had the flat-bottom ones. I don't like that the ones I have do not stand up in my fridge and are a bit cluttered organizationally.

  • Favorite reusable bag. Really easy to clean in the dishwasher and very durable.
