SPLF 12 Pack Reusable Gallon Freezer Bags Dishwasher Microwave Safe, 1 Gallon BPA Free Leakproof Food Storage Bags, Silicone Free Containers for Meal Prep, Fridge Kitchen Organization

These bags are of good quality and are easy to close. My hands are not very strong anymore and my thumbs hurt when I pinch things too tightly, so I was looking for a bag that would be easy to close. I’m very happy with these in that regard. They are not silicone so if you are looking for a silicone bag, these are not it. They stand up nicely with or without the Little bag holders, but having the bag holders definitely makes it easier to fill many at a time. I just froze my first batch of freezer meals this weekend and haven’t gone through the defrost process yet, so can’t really comment on how well they hold up.

I'm very happy with the quality, thickness, texture, and good seal of these bags. They stand up on a square bottom when you need to fill them with liquid, and once they are closed, they lay perfectly in the freezer, not taking up too much space—very efficient. I also plan to use them for sous vide since the quality of plastic seems excellent for those conditions. I have also put one in the microwave, but I would probably monitor how long it is in. Overall, it was a good investment.

These are great for meal prep for the family and pups.

In the description, it said dishwasher safe. I don’t use heat Setting in my Dishwasher. I believe it’s best to wash them inside out by hand. The water feels up inside the bag and soap gets locked around the edges. It’s not a problem washing them by hand. I enjoy the product it’s better than all the plastic and plastic wrap.

These bags are amazing. We use them to issue lunch to our students, and I haven’t had any issues with breaking, tearing, or leaking. They’re very durable yet lightweight, and they hold up great in the dishwasher. Overall, really solid bags and super reliable for daily use. The zipper closes easily and stays sealed. My 11-year-old daughter can operate the zipper easily, too.

I’ve had other brands line these but I really like these a lot, they seal well and are pretty sturdy .

These bags I've found are extremely difficult to close shut. The zips don't like to line up together and even worse the 2 zips are quite a distance apart from each other, so if you have small hands like me you cannot use your thumb to press close both at the same time like you would with a normal disposable ziplock bag. Takes a really long time to zip shut properly and hurts your hands. I'm thinking maybe this is an issue with putting them in the dishwasher as I saw another reviewer who says they hand wash them saying they're easy to close. Maybe the zip gets warped in the dishwasher even if it doesn't melt the bag. Another issue, depending on your dishwasher the dishwasher spray may push the bags off of your dishwasher racks while running, so when you go to open the dishwasher after they will be flopped over with a bunch of water still in them. The ones that remain on the rack still have some dishwasher liquid/moisture inside and I would recommend rinsing them out under the sink then putting them on a tall zip lock bag drying rack to fully air dry inside. You may have to try putting them in different orientations in your dishwasher to avoid being sprayed up and off the little pegs. Another note is that the instruction paper they give you with them saying its best to hand wash, but that if you are using the dishwasher you should run your dishwasher like normal without them in it then right when it's done open the dishwasher so you can see where the hottest parts of your dishwasher are and avoid putting the bags there during runs. It also says you should not use the heat setting to dry. The bags can stand up nicely on my food scale and have a wide enough opening to easily put/pour ingredients into the bag. It can fit quite a lot of food inside. So far I've found them to be freezer and dishwasher safe but the hard to close zipper mechanism makes me wish I had gotten a different type or brand of bag. I see on another Amazon page that SPLF makes a different gallon sized stand up bag: https://a.co/d/5bVbkfc Maybe the other SPLF ones would be easier to close since the 2 zip parts seem closer together than this one. If the bags had one of those glide slider shut mechanisms I feel like that would have been much easier to close vs the press zip type. But again if you handwash these only, you may not have the hard closing issue occur.

These were definitely a good quality bag. Love that they had a pleated bottom for extra size. I would highly recommend buying these

I use these bags for freezer meals and they work great. They are very sturdy and wash up easily.

Very happy with purchase and will buy again soon. Just organized freezer and it looks great, specially flat bottom makes it much easier to keep it vertically orgarnized.

Great for meal prepping, used 24 great in freezer. After freezing and thawing the plastic gets wrinkled easily after you wash it but is still good just doesn’t look as pretty as when you use it the first time

These silicone bags work well and I am happy they are not releasing micro plastics which are so hazardous to our health. So far I am pleased with them.

Arrived quickly, sealed easily and look sturdy. Will let you know more once I use them.
