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.

  • Love these silicone bags! They work in the fridge, or the freezer, and are microwaveable. They’re a little pricey but much more durable than plastic bags and other silicon bags on the market. when you can find them on sale, get them. My only issue is they don’t always close easily, and don’t stay closed/sealed.

  • Awesome replacement for plastic containers, and plastic bags. Dishwasher safe, sturdy, and the flat bottom bags make loading easy. I have a range of sizes for different uses. Easy to clean makes them spectacular.

  • Excellent storage bags! Thankful to be free of quick-molding produce and containers. Definitely happy that these help me do my part to protect the environment since they're a great alternative to single-use storage that we previously used. These bags are also cute snack bags for my children at school and playdates.

  • Love my stasher bags and how many shapes/ sizes they come in. I’ve been using solely stasher for the past 4 years and haven’t had any issues. They’re in great shape even with plenty of runs through the dishwasher.

  • I wish I could have 50 more of these... they're that good! Worth the initial investment since they'll be around a LONG time. I love that they come in different colors, shapes & sizes to meet your needs. Now that we have a family, I can see these being a staple in our pantry, fridge & freezer.

  • We were early adopters of Stasher bags when they first came out and we now use stasher bags for absolutely everything in our home. School lunches, packing toiletries for travel, food storage and my favorite - steaming vegetables. Every household would do well to stock several sizes of these very useful and high quality bags.

  • I love my stashes bags! I had a square one for years and have had no problems with it at all. I recently got a full set and am so happy I did that. I find that scents do not permeate the material and that they clean well in a dishwasher.

  • Pricy, but they last, and they're durable. I love that these don't absorb food flavors and that I can just stand them up in my dishwasher and they come out clean. We don't buy single-use bags anymore.

  • Ok here’s the thing - I love the idea of Stasher and bought them up immediately when they came out a few years ago. They’re GREAT for sustainability and for bringing things like snacks to work or carrying toothbrushes on vacation. We also use them often as a sous vide bag. My issue is cleaning them is a pain. They don’t properly get cleaned in the dishwasher, and the zipper portion has little crevices that are hard to clean out. They also get this weird film on them over time. I know there’s a way to clean them in the oven but honestly….I haven’t tried this as I’m too lazy. It feels like it’d be easier to use a hard container instead for some things!

  • I love these bags and that they are dishwasher safe. I always feel guilty when using ziplock bags but now I can know that I am helping the environment while keeping my snacks intact. The material is thick and no leakage.

  • These are so joyful and useful! I keep my toiletries in one of these for travel. Will definitely buy more soon!

  • Great product to help me cut down on plastic waste! Amazing in the kitchen and for travel!

  • These are great for reusing and storing food. Only problem is they can be hard to clean out

  • I love Stasher bags! They’re easy to wash and feel high quality. I use mine for snacks and small items in my purse. I think the price pint is a bit high though. Wish they were more affordable.

  • I find the shape a bit stressful for cleaning, but overall I'm delighted to have Stasher bags. I'm always storing leftovers like a little squirrel and I HATE how much that involves plastic and/or anything single-use. This obviously helps. One day I'll remember to take one with me in my bag when I eat out at a restaurant!

  • Stasher bags are so great…I have almost completely stopped using disposable plastic bags. They come in all different sizes and colors, are easy to use, easy to clean and keep food fresh and safe. I feel a lot better about the choices I make since I started using this sustainable brand.

  • These bags are great! They’re perfect for multi use and they have the best seal I’ve ever seen on a reusable “ziplock bag”.
