Ziploc® Brand Quart Freezer Slider Bags, Power Shield™ Technology for More Durability, 15 Count

This style/design of Ziploc bags is hard to find, but once again, Walmart came through. Now that I know they carry them, I can stop hunting!

Our family, ourselves and 2 sisters and families spend a month every year on the lake catching fish we filet and freeze for the year. We have ALWAYS bought Ziploc only because they did not leak out in our freezer when put up to freeze. This year we have ALL had problems. I finally realized this week that you HAVE to be sure first zipper is sealed, second one doesn't matter, there is a hole on both ends between the zips where liquid leaks out.

I use these bags to freeze diced and sliced bell peppers for cooking and salsa to last until next summer. The frozen peppers are fine, but the salsa leaks on some of the bags along the seams. The leaking is made worse after freezing so that while thawing I learned to place the bags onto a plate, so I don't have salsa all over my refrigerator shelf.

I bought a new box of the Quart Ziploc Freezer Bags about a week ago and they are not up to the standards I'm used to with Ziploc bags. They do not have the Tabs I see mentioned here, so maybe they are old and were warehoused somewhere too hot (?) because all the zippers have a pronounced curve to them. You can only seal them by pinching different spots along the zipper and when you finish, then try to close them running your fingers hard along the zipper. Some still did not seal after several minutes of trying. I regretted trying the brand again. I have used Ziploc bags for decades, these were the first defective ones I've used.

I bought these bags because I use them to keep things airtight in the refrigerator and freezer. The new design has a flaw between the slide and bag that causes it to tear open. I have had two bags that I used, and when I went to open them, they were both torn, exposing the food that I thought had been sealed to the air and spoiling the food. I will not buy these again. Ever.

I am greatly disappointed that the Stay Open feature has been forced upon us all. I do not appreciate the shape that my frozen food now takes even when frozen flat. My frozen food no longer lies flat, creating issues with stacking no matter if done horizontally or vertically. I'm not a happy camper.

For some reason it is now common to have leaking bags. My latest exercise in futility happened when thawing out frozen tomato soup and it started dripping all over the counter. These bags SUCK now!

The zipper lock on this product tears apart. I can take a new one out of the box and when I open it, it pulls apart. Or if I've stored some in one of the bags, when I go to re-open it, it tears apart. I love the idea of the tab feature, but the locking section needs to be dealt with...period.

My whole life (I am 64), I have bought the brand Ziploc bags in many sizes. Even the huge ones for packing clothes etc. I am so dissatisfied with all of the Ziploc bags (quart, gallon, freezer, regular). I have wasted so much money on these only to find as soon as I go to open the locking part it separates & rips apart from the bag. I maybe have 1-2 bags if that from any one box that opens fine the 1st time, but then the next time I use that lock it doesn't work at all now & the bag rips again. I need to find a different brand of bags that hold up. I have bought the Ziploc brand from at least 6 different stores now in addition to buying them in bulk at large chain stores. Bottom line these bags are junk!! It is ridiculous that we the consumer have to spend top dollar for these bags that do not work. I will be contacting customer service again. I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND WASTING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THESE BAGS!

I purchased these freezer slider bags for freezing cooked vegetables. I needed the broth inside the veggies and filled each bag 3/4 of the way. I was disappointed. I'll use the storage bag for the convenience of the slider but never use freezer bags for freezing liquid. I can't imagine these bags being air tight. Going back to the ziploc freezer bags. They do well with liquid.
