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.

  • These are a great alternative to plastic bags, I find them to work well!

  • Love these bags! They’re durable and can be microwaved and frozen and come in a variety of sizes and fun colors.

  • This bag is ok. I’ve used it a lot. The main downfall is that it’s a pain to clean

    None
  • Love that these are easy to clean and so durable.

  • Great for snack and storage use

  • these are my new favorite obsession. They are so cute and I love that they are reusable. Very easy to wash and reuse and also great for the environment!! :)

  • Having seen these in friends and family homes they appeared to be sticky, slimy and gross. After seeing them new in store with their helpful packaging I started with the 2 sizes to 'try'. That's all it took, everytime I caught a sale I was buying another size or color I didn't have. I use them for everything from food storage, to home and travel organization. I wash them in the dishwasher and store them when the interior is dry. I wish I had never hesitated trying these much sooner.

  • slightly expensive, but they hold up! I've had a set for a few years now and use them all around my kitchen. I also like that I can put them in the oven to remove any odors that stick to them. Took away one star because I noticed one of mine has a small tear.

  • I've had trouble cleaning and drying my bags, as water and food often gets stuck in the corners. These are high maintenance and I prefer to just use reusable containers

  • love my stasher- super spacious and easy to clean, has lasted 4 years now with no staining

  • Love these. Use for on the go, camping, leftovers, etc, etc. Have so many different sizes, always comes in handy and expertly made.

  • I was skeptical about these - not that they wouldn't work but what were they needed for. However, I think they're an amazing alternative to stacking up tupperware or trying to find the right zip bag for carrying something. I love the smaller versions because I can put extra chords in my bag to travel. The seal on these is excellent and they're thick enough to feel secure and keep things organized!

  • Stasher bags are good for literally everything. I use them to pack my son's snacks for daycare, carry toiletries when I travel, and pretty much anything else I need. They are durable and machine-washable.

  • I really wanted to like these at first, but did not enjoy cleaning them as time went on. Therefore I probably wouldn't pay full price for these since I could not use them for food - their original purpose. I do however use these to store knickknacks or organize my bag, but even then they literally collect dust and get weirdly sticky. Not for me, not for food either.

  • I love my Stasher bags! I got them a few years ago and they've held up super well. I use them in the dishwasher and hand wash them. I like the smaller stasher bags for traveling with snacks as well, but I wish they made larger gallon sized bags. I still need these and end up buying the plastic ones. These are a bit pricey but considering you don't need to rebuy plastic bags, the price is reasonable. The only dupe I've seen that resembled the quality is at Trader Joe's,

  • Stasher bags are great - I've now had the same set for 5+ years and can confidently say they're a great swap for Ziplocs and hold us as a sustainable alternative.

  • I’m obsessed with my Stasher bags! I never have ziplock bags because I hate the waste so these have been a game changer. I pretty much always have at least three in use.

  • the idea of the bag is great and i loved the product material but the design is a bit annoying to use because it’s stiff and has a tendency to not stay open and tends to be close so you have to use energy and open it every time you want to grab something. i was eating snacks and every time i grabbed a bite i had to open the bag up to grab snacks which can be annoying because it just doesn’t stay open like a plastic bag
