Stasher Premium Silicone Reusable Food Storage Stand-Up Bag Mega, Aqua, Microwave, Sous Vide, Dishwasher, Oven and Freezer Safe, BPA Free, Leak-free, Eco-friendly, 104 Oz

I've had the first one of these since maybe 2023 and I can't tell the difference between that one and the ones I bought recently. They all work great and have helped us save probably hundreds of plastic bags by now. We have this size, the 28oz, and the 64oz and they all work great. We've saved so much on plastic bags that these have all paid for themselves by now.I've filled them with water and then pressed down as hard as I could and the seal held, even after many uses. They open easily but seal back solid.These are probably my favorite size to store dried apples and jerky. They can hold a full load from my Nesco dehydrator.The hardest part of these is drying but we found a bottle dryer works if you straddle a few mounts to hold the bag open and upside down.

I make smoothies for my family multiple times a week, so we have a big stash of frozen fruits. I hate constantly replacing ziplock bags, but I tried out one of these (biggest I could find with good reviews). It’s been great! I’d like a full gallon option, but this one still works great. I’ll cut up an entire pineapple, freeze it, and this bag is the perfect size. Same with multiple bunches of bananas. Great product! I’d recommend it.

This bag is good for food storage, it’s very durable, the quality is good. It doesn’t open as easily as the bowl from this company and it’s much thinner than the bowl. Color is OK it doesn’t clean quite as well, but you can eat food in it store food in the refrigerator in it and carry dry food in it. It’s reusable, which is important.

UPDATE: I’ve added more Stashers over time, especially the mega, and our usage of plastic bags has dropped to almost zero. I buy my Ziplocs in quantity from Sam’s Club - 4 large bags of gallon- and quart-size per case - and typically bought a case 2-3 times a year (depending on size). I opened a box of gallon-size bags 3 months ago and still have plenty. In fact, our largest use was when we went on a trip last month since I use them for protecting just about everything in our suitcases and always tuck a bunch in the front pocket of my bag for snacks and things at our destination. Typically, I would already be on another box of Ziplocs. Quart-size was a big usage for us because we’ve always got multiple types of cheese in the refrigerator - all in Ziplocs. Now, they’re all in Stashers and we hardly use the quart size Ziplocs at all. Given our current rate of usage, I don’t anticipate needing to even think about buying more Ziplocs for at least a year. So, the Stashers, especially the ones for cheese and smaller items, are already paying for themselves. The Mega’s will take a bit longer, but, given that we can even thaw frozen meat in them rather than in Ziplocs (we’re always thawing steaks and chicken breast that afternoon for dinner because we’re pretty serendipitous about dinners), those Stashers I bought earlier have already paid for themselves. I do like these a lot.PREVIOUS REVIEW:My son runs a food business and focuses on zero waste to the greatest degree possible. He brought home some of the ones that he’d bought to sample and particularly liked the Stasher ones as he’s trying to help us get down as close to zero waste as we can. I got rid of plastic storage containers almost 10 years ago by switching to glass bowls with lids. They’re heavy, but great for storing all sorts of things, go into the dishwasher, and don’t absorb odors or dyes. But, we were still using Ziplocs for things like cheese, smaller leftovers, or things like hamburger patties and veggies that we kept in the freezer. So, the goal became not doing that. I’ll say right off that these are not cheap; in fact, they’re pretty expensive. So, I’m slowly building my stock of shapes and sizes one or two at a time. I’m up to a little more than a half dozen now and I’m starting to see a definite drop in our Ziploc bag usage. Each size and shape has its ideal usage be that cheese, cookies, frozen veggies, frozen hamburger patties (and other meats whose shape doesn’t lend itself well to wrapping in freezer paper), leftover pasta, you name it. I love that I can easily wash them in the dishwasher - just turn them inside out, plop over a divider post, and put them through with other dishes. I’m still figuring out a storage spot, but I can put smaller ones inside larger ones which helps. All in all, I’m really like these. I still need to find a size that will easily fit breads as the mega is not quite big enough (can take a half loaf just fine). Bottom line, it’s a big investment at the start, much like my glass storage ware was, but I’ll still be using these years from now, so they’ll pay off in Ziplocs not purchased as well as in their contribution toward zero waste in our house.

I have a couple other brands I use but am having trouble sealing them so after watching so many you tubers touting these bags I thought I would try them. I did buy the wide bottomed ones. They are definitely a tough, heavy duty bag and they do seem to seal easier but they are, for me , bulky. I have to use containers in my side by side fridge to make the best use of the space and well these bags just seem to use more space. I seem to gravitate back to my other thinner bags but I have only had the stashers a short time. If like me you tend to compress as much air out of your bags to get them to fit in your drawers or containers then perhaps Stashers wide bottom bags may not be the right fit. Because they are made from a heavy duty material I may try one of their flat bags to see if they work better for me .

Great to store lettuce leaves. Be sure to release the air out before sealed.

I like this container. The bottom expands so it’s roomy inside, but the bottom capacity is greater than the size of the opening so it’s meant for a bunch of smaller items rather than a large item.

Stasher is a good quality and odor free.
