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.

  • I have accumulated quite of few stasher bags, and they’re great, however, I’ve given them to a friend as I personally find the bags too difficult to open on a regular basis. This difficulty is due to the leakproof nature of the bags, but it’s too much effort for me personally. They have a lot of colors and sizes available, but keep in mind they are a higher price point.

  • I remember buying my first stasher bag and being frustrated with the cost, thinking it was so expensive. Now, years later, all 12 bags I have had held up great and I haven't bought disposable ones in literally years! I use them for food, travel, organization... for eveything!

  • In short, I love these. In long they're easy to use and are very durable, they are pretty easy to clean, and they come in an assortment of sizes so you can always find one that you're looking for. I love these; if they were less expensive, I'd have 10000 of them.

  • They are dead useful! Durable (aside from one medium black one we got that ripped right away), great selection of colors and well constructed. Aside from food I’ve also stored makeup & electronics in them and they are very airtight and waterproof.

  • I love my Stacher bags! Love the brand’s mission. I discover the brand because I was looking for a portable bag for my dog’s treats. I found the perfect size bag and I love it. After that I got a couple other bags for myself and I love how they feel, they are also really easy to close and open. I definitely love the fact they are reusable and so easy to clean.

  • I love the sustainability efforts and find myself using these bags very often. They have definitely eliminated my need for plastic baggies. My only complaints are they can be a bit tricky to close, and are a bit tough wash thoroughly.

  • I love Stasher Bags! I use them for my dog's food when we travel or he stays with a sitter overnight. I love the sustainable element, the fun colors and the efficacy.

  • Tbh I primarily bought these so I could make microwaved popcorn more sustainably - but it works well, cleans easy, and they have a bunch of other uses too!

  • Stasher bags are a great multi-use addition to everyone's household. I use them for food in my fridge, snacks on the go, and packing toiletries when I travel (TSA approved!). I prefer the look of clear ones (so I can easily see what's inside) and I wash them by hand or place them in the dishwasher. You can never have enough and they last forever!

  • I love Stasher bags for food, organization, travel, and more--you can even make popcorn in them. The size variety and functionality (e.g., stand-up bags and bowls) is great. The only thing is they can be a bit hard to close/open as opposed to other reusable storage bags, but they seem to be the most sturdy. Love that they're microwave, oven, and dishwasher safe plus all the fun colors.

  • Huge fan of these, always wish I had more around! It’s a simple way to eliminate single use zip lock bags (truly, I haven’t purchased zip locks in years thanks to these) and something most people don’t even know exist, so I am constantly giving them as gifts for people who care about the environment. I find them to be easy to care for (dishwashing kinda works, if you can prop them open enough) and durable, but not indestructible. Have had one start to tear at the seam. It’s still kinda usable but no longer air tight.

  • I appreciate Stasher Bags for their sustainability. They're a good eco-friendly option to replace single-use plastic bags. However, their sealing ability isn't as strong as disposable Ziploc bags. So, while they're great for the environment, they might not keep your food as fresh.

  • So easy to clean, great color selection, it’s replaced all my ziplocks & it’s a great way to start your sustainability journey!

  • Stasher bags are such an excellent replacement for single use zipper bags! The material is thick and sturdy and I love using these for fruit for smoothies to keep in the freezer!

  • I love how easy they are to clean. They’re saving me money and eco friendly. What’s not to love?

  • Love the colours and that it's see-through. Seals well. Love these bags

  • The bags are so worth the money, I use them every day for snacks/packing lunches, to store partially used vegetables while I'm cooking, and to take my dog's breakfast/dinner/treats on the run. They're easy to clean, lightweight, don't spill or leak, and are easy to store flat, and they take up so much less room than my glass and Tupperware.

  • Honestly love all of my stasher bags. Being able to wash them in the dishwasher is the best part about them. They are a bit bulky to store when not in use, but the benefits outweigh that inconvenience.

  • Love these bags mainly because they are so durable AND easy to clean. I have bought several other reusable kitchen bags and none of them are nearly as easy to clean, and a few have even melted in the dishwasher. Not Stasher! I use them all the time and have multiple sizes. I need more so I can use some as freezer bags. They are spendy, but this is one time the price is actually worth it, and there are sales several times a year.

  • Feels like great quality material. I've only used it to store snacks so I'm not sure how it holds up with anything liquidy. I gave this brand 3 out of 5 because it popped open in my backpack and spilled my snacks.
