Stasher Premium Silicone Reusable Food Storage Sandwich Bag, Aqua, Microwave, Sous Vide, Dishwasher, Oven and Freezer Safe, BPA Free, Leak-free, Eco-friendly, 28 Oz

A great alternative to ziplock bags!
I use a lot of ziplock bags every day…well I used to anyways. The other day my friend told me about these reusable silicone bags that you can get at the store so I got some. They were kind of expensive but I figured I can just get a refund if I don’t like them. I’m trying to convert more of my disposable kitchen items to be more eco-friendly. So between these bags, swedish dishcloths, and silicone baking mats, I think I’m off to a good start! The one I got is in aqua, it says on the packaging that its 15-ounce.I tried it out immediately once I got home. My first impression was that the material was very thick and rubbery…in a good way. I was a bit skeptical about how it closes since it seemed kind of flimsy but to my surprise it actually closes very securely. Its funny actually after I closed it I struggled to get it back open again. So yeah, the seal will definitely seal your food.The next day I used it to bring my sandwich to work (I usually use a regular baggie). Of course I gave it a good wash beforehand. One thing thats great about the silicone is it keeps the shape of your food…in other words my sandwich didn’t squashed like it sometimes does in my work bag. There wasn’t any noticeable smell or anything either coming from the silicone…my sandwich tasted exactly the same as before so that’s a good thing. I know sometimes if the material is bad it can leave an odor in your food which I think is really gross.Whats even more impressive is that the silicone is microwavable. This actually makes eating lunch super convenient at work…I can just put the whole thing in the microwave for 15 seconds and I’ll get a warm meal. Whereas when I used regular baggies I would never get the luxury of eating a warm sandwich. Ive already had a coworker as me about them. I guess it attracts attention when you put something like that in the microwave. Ive never used it on the stove top though it says you can. The idea of putting it over open flame kind of makes me nervous so I think i’ll hold back on that for now.Like others have said they wash up great in the dishwasher too. I don’t use my dishwasher too often though so I just clean them by hand. Just use soap and water…the regular stuff, and leave it to air dry. I always dump the excess water out first otherwise i’ll take that much longer.The bottomline is that they’re great reusable bags. The silicone is high quality and doesn’t have any smell. They’re microwavable and easy to wash as well. My only complaint is that yeah they’re a little hard to open and close. I guess thats a good thing since it means that the seal works well? Or maybe I’m just lacking power in my fingers who knows…Anyways I don’t regret buying this product though it was kind of pricey. Less stuff to the landfill is always a good thing imo.

So many uses besides food storage
I am trying be environmentally friendly and reduce waste. With children, I go through a lot of plastic disposable bags but this is eliminating that. I can pack lunch items inside and then put it in the dishwasher to clean. It is sturdy and not flimsy at all. The seal is very tight once I close it. This should last a long time. I like that they also come in many different sizes as well. It can also be used for so many things besides food. I sent a few with my daughter who studied abroad and she packed her electronic cords in one and a few toiletries in another for her carry on.

Holds less than expected
I got this because of the rounded inner corners. I love the idea of reusable storage but I was concerned how to clean a square cornered bag. The rounded corners make it easy to clean.The trouble is, even though it’s a ‘sandwich’ bag, you’ll never get a sandwich through the opening, even if it’s a Wonder Bread size. Forget about a pan-style whole grain bread. DH rarely takes sandwiches for lunch but I thought if we had one it would reduce our plastic usage. Nope. The opening just isn’t big enough for even a modest sandwich. The listing photos that showed pineapple chunks instead of a sandwich should have been the tip-off. Oh well, we’ll use it for cookies or something and stick to a Rubbermaid container for sandwiches.

I Use For Travel, Leftovers, Gifts!
I love Stashers! I bought my first ones when they were a baby company and gifted them to my bookclub as part of “My Favorite Things” gift. I have gifted every size, shape of Stashers. I use them to store my cheese, left overs. For travel, I have one for my toiletries (with silicone travel size bottles), one for my face serum and cream, one for my hard boiled eggs. I love these and gift them to so many!

Excellent quality and durability. I use these for everything, frozen meat, snacks, leftovers, lunch meat and cheese. Easy to wash in top rack of dishwasher. Not inexpensive but well worth it in the long run.

Bisher habe ich es leider noch nicht geschafft ihn auszuprobieren aber er ist sehr robust und riecht auch nicht.

Good product. I bought it because of its compact, light and flat size for packing food to work. Microwavable is also a plus although have not done so yet. Easy to wash, no smells. Have been using to bring cooked food to work.
