Stasher Premium Reusable Silicone Bag, Stand-Up Mega, Clear, 104 oz

I’m not being paid to write this review, nor did I receive a free product as an incentive to give positive feedback. I’m just a devoted fan of the Stasher brand silicone reusable bags, and thought I’d encourage you to invest in an assortment of these handy bags to reduce your use of plastic. I continue to find multiple uses for these (mainly as food storage) and have used the fun colorful versions - like this multicolor sandwich size option - as the packaging for gifts. I admit that you’ll pay more for Stashers as compared to other inferior-quality competitors, but its construction (e.g. awesome seal to name just one feature) and durability (withstands multiple washes without cracking or degrading, beautifully handles the freezer, etc.) will quickly prove itself as a wise “investment.” And Mother Earth will also thank you!

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 bought this silicone bag to see if freezer storage would keep my fruit from spoiling. It was easy to use, thick material and flexible for storing in a compact space. It is leak proof and keep fruit fresh for weeks instead of days. I will definitely be buying more.

I bought this reusable bag to keep my hands free momcozy pump parts in while using the fridge method. Fits the pumps perfectly and very easy to clean and reuse! Worth the price!!

Great for packing snacks for a trip. Instead of loose food, I use it to store snack bars and individual packaged biscuits and cookies. This keeps the bag cleaner. Deducted a star because when fresh food is placed in the bag, the cleaning process can be tedious to make sure every corner is scrubbed clean and dries thoroughly. These silicone bags are sturdy and I like the reusable aspect to them, making it a good value for your money.

Very thick and sturdy. This bag holds a lot and is easy to use because it stands upright. Sealing it can be a bit hard if someone has arthritis, but the seal holds well and is easy to open from the ends.

I love these Stashers. They are water-tight, which is just what you need for a cooler with ice - you don't want your food soggy and they fit nicely too. The one I received had some warehouse dirt on the outside, but it washed up perfectly, it wasn't used as I had originally thought.

Great for school snacks or road trip snacks

Muy buen tamaño

je l'utilise pour les pic-nics, pour stoker des aliments au quotidien, comme glaçon dans une glacière, même comment trousse de toilette en voyage. Le volume est bien pour beaucoup d'utilisations. C'est solide et facile à nettoyer. le système de fermeture reste bien étanche.

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.

Excellent...but doesn't fit standard loaf cuts from a bread maker unfortunately. Not very flexible and the opening point can be more time consuming than expected. Other than that...very easy to clean and completely natural product makes it a win overall. I can live with the shortcomings. Plan to replace all plastic Ziploc bags for my family and this is the best option in my opinion. No more microplastics to be concerned about, less non biodegradable waste and saving money 👍

Tolle Farbe und wie gewohnt gute Stasher Qualität.
