Clear Sandwich Bag

Stasher silicone bags are a good quality expensive reusable option for food (and not only). The bags are very versatile, the limit being just the size; I use them to store, carry, freeze, refrigerate, warm-up, cook food and anything in between. The silicone is quite thick, but still somewhat flexible; the thick silicone makes them really durable, but I would still advise care to not scratch or puncture the surface with something very sharp. The Stasher bags make a great addition to my plastic free reusable items collection of household items. Overall, I wouldn't consider them that great for voluminous items, since the silicone is quite thick and the opening quite narrow. And if you pack too much stuff in them the pinch-lock can easily open; but if you don't over stuff the bags the seal is air-tight. Still, personally I won't store liquids like soup in them. I personally wash them in the dishwasher and they always come out 100% clean. I just make sure that I `spread` out the opening as much as I can without putting stress on the silicone. I never noticed gunk hiding in the crevices of the pinch-lock or around the corners; and since mine are transparent, they would be easy to spot. If I leave them stretch-opened in the dishwasher, they dry out completely. Depending what I stored in the bags, they do get some staining in time; but I consider this part of the regular wear and tear. Otherwise, my bags were used hundreds of times in the freezer, microwave and oven, without any issues. Snack size: The snack size is pretty small, it's more usable for portioned snacks (puffs, nuts, crackers, dried fruit, homemade granola bars). It's quite sleek, so it fits in bags and backpacks, while keeping items safe. If you sit on the bag you'll crush the puffs/crackers, but otherwise they do help with keeping snacks from crumbling. I used sometimes to freeze smaller portions of fruits or half of an avocado. It's the perfect size to bring vitamins and supplements to a week long vacation/travel. Sandwich size: The sandwich size is the most versatile for me. I use it to store small portions of meats and veggies/fruits in the freezer. I use it for leftovers in the fridge. I use it to carry snacks, from rice cakes, to carrots, sugar snap peas, crackers, puffs. I use it for bread and sandwiches; the bag fits regular sized sandwich bread, but it's too large for thin sliced small portioned ones and not big enough for super-sized slices; if you make huge over-stuffed sandwiches, they won't fit in the bag. Besides storing bread, the bag is great for reheating stale or frozen bread in the oven. I pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees, put the bread/buns locked in the bag for 7-8 minutes and get back crusty warm delicious bread. I bet it works for (non-glazed) donuts and pastries as well. I also cooked eggs in the sandwich size bags, both in the microwave and in boiled water. The eggs are really fluffy when cooked in the Stasher bags. Big size (1/2 gallon): I mostly use the big size to freeze large quantities and sizes of veggies (great for long one like green beans and asparagus). But the best use for the 1/2 gallon bag for me is making popcorn. I just put in the salt and the popcorn kernels, run my microwave popcorn program for 3-4 minutes, and get perfectly popped popcorn each time; you can add oil or butter if you like, but it's not mandatory. I would repurchase this bag again and again just to use it for popcorn. Mine started getting brown stains from all the times I made popcorn in it. Another great use for the big size is steaming veggies in the microwave for a quick meal. It works for green beans and smaller broccoli and cauliflower florets. Stand-Up: This is definitely the most versatile bag, from pantry to freezer, from produce to soups. It can hold a large diversity of dry bulk goods, rice, beans, smaller pasta, crackers, nuts, cereal. Fruits and smaller (or cut) veggies fit perfectly both for fridge and freezer storage. They are great for meal prep, both for storing food and for taking it along (although the opening won't allow too much flexibility from eating straight from the bag). In the big one I can store even whole cut watermelons and halves of spaghetti squash. I have purchased various sizes from Amazon both individual bags and sets, usually when there's a deal around. I have reviews for different sizes with the same overall comments, but specific considerations depending on the size.

I have bought several in different sizes. Worth the price. I had previously bought a different brand and they just would not seal. This brand is great. Heavy-duty and easy, secure seal.

As soon as I got this in the mail, I used it to pack my snacks and lunch for a roadtrip to my parents' home. My only regret with that decision is that I didn't bring both on my trip so I can use it more while I'm away! This is a very nice product, well built and designed for the purpose. I was initially sceptic of the sealing mechanism which seemed kind of flimsy on some review videos despite the product's claim to be very secure. This doubt quickly blew out the window as I actually struggled when I tried to open and close it the first time. I learned how to open it properly after that, but the seal is definitely impressive. I don't have a dishwasher in my apartment, so I have to clean everything by hand. This bag is super easy to clean. I was afraid that the slim opening and the product's rigidity would make it difficult to get to the inner corners of the bag, but I was pleasantly surprised when everything came off clean so easily. Another bonus: the bag dries really fast. Any downsides I can imagine people struggling with is the slim opening of the bag. I personally don't have a problem with this as I always make my food and snacks in thin, cut pieces, but those of you intending to bring five whole apples for a picnic might want to opt for a regular bag or lunch box. I'm not saying it's entirely impossible, just highly improbable and will probably be preceded by great effort and struggle. Also, some people might not love the feel of the material used by Stasher. I'm not one of those people as I find the texture very satisfying to hold and work with, but it is a sturdier and thicker form of silicone than what's usually seen in the market. It's probably why they're so durable in the first place. Overall I am planning on repurchasing this product. I only beought the medium sized one and I have my eyes set on the snack sizes.

Very sturdy and does a good job of sealing/ keeping things inside. Size is appropriate for large snack or sandwich. Only complaint I have is that the opening is not very big. It is hard to fit a sandwich inside without smushing it.

obsessed with these!! i ordered this size and a snack size and love them both. they’re very easy to use and clean which is perfect. they can be a little hard to open, which is honestly a good thing cause that means it’s sealed well! the size is bigger than an average sandwich bag, which is also kind of a plus as well. the material is great i highly recommend these!

I sous vide chicken breasts almost daily and I find this the best reusable bag option so far. The size I got(sandwich) was perfect for a chicken breast. The bags don't seem to have any impact on the cooking of the chicken. The results are generally similar to vacuum bags or ziplock bags. Cleaning them is relatively easy, I just rinse them out as much as I can, then run them in the dishwasher. I have had to do minor additional cleaning after the dishwasher but nothing too extensive. The one biggest downside is the seal. I wouldn't trust the seal. Some times it feels like they are welded together and impossible to open and other times the bag opens way too easily. It usually opens when I first fill it with the protein and add a small marinade/seasoning and shake it around. When shaking you have to hold the seal closed or it will definitely open. A ziplock has a much more reliable seal. As for durability they seem really solid. Currently I have had them a couple months but use them almost everyday and none have shown any issues.

A branded product doesn’t have brand name “Stasher” on it. However the photo in the slides all have it. Also the packing is very low not like a branded item should be. That seems like the quality of the one I got didn’t get approved... so I decide to return it.

After using it for a couple months, here are my findings: Sturdy bags that can hold and keep many different types of food; they save space on the fridge; they have a very tight seal (they keep liquids provided you’re sensible and don’t squeeze them too hard, they do take some level of pressure without opening no problem); They go on the freezer and they do fit a lot depending on what you’re using them for. They have always been leakproof for what I use them - I never traveled with a bag full of soup in my backpack tho, so I don’t know your standards/ideas on leakproof. Fruits, cookies and sandwiches/bagels are fine to travel tho. Also for seasoning/marinating stuff overnight in the fridge they work great. The opening is finicky but that’s what makes the seal really good, so you have to pick your battles, and I never had any problems on transporting sandwiches - if it’s cut in half and arranged nicely. To take the contents out just press the corners into each other and the opening should suffice. They are tight. If they’re not tight, they won’t be leakproof. Get a bigger model if you want more space, you can’t have it all. They’re ok to clean, but drying silicone bags out is a bit of a pain in general, you have to stack them upside down on a glass or something and forget them there for a good few hours. Not a deal breaker but could be improved. Maybe selling then with a thin stand/dish rack add-on to dry them? I don’t know. I don’t use my Stasher for cooking/boiling/microwaving so I can’t comment on that. I bought cheaper ones to compare and I like them as well, but the Stasher does work and feel a bit better, specially on closing and opening, maybe the silicone quality is what does it, you do feel the slightly difference in touch/feel of the material. The seal seems pretty much the same and they’re equally useful to me. They’re dishwasher safe but I ended up always washing by hand for some reason so I also can’t comment on that. If you don’t want them for cooking/boiling, consider buying cheaper brands, they perform very similarly and are WAY cheaper - I got this one for £11 and the cheaper ones were a set of 3 for £15. I gotta say tho I really like the Stasher bag and although they’re are a bit overpriced, if they last as they seem to do, it’s well worth the investment. As it is, I would recommend/ buy more of them, great experience overall.

Cumple su función y el material se ve super resistente. Como contra: - No es tan fácil de abrir con uñas cortas y/o manos mojadas. - Hay que encontrarle el punto maximo, las primeras veces la llené de mas y se salio algo de comida al cerrarla. Sumado a que tiene tantos recovecos cerca del cierre que esa comida que se salio no fue tan facil de limpiar.

I love these Stasher bags. I have four of them now and plan to add more to my kitchen in the future. This size perfectly holds sandwiches, snacks and other food such as blocks of cheese or sandwich meats. I've started to build a collection so I can reduce the use of cling wrap/film and freezer bags in our household. I've experienced no leakage, no lingering smells, with Stasher bags, and the larger, rounded interior corners make them far easier to clean than their square-edged competitors. While there are plenty of awesome colours, I prefer clear bags because I can see the contents and it makes them easier to clean (you're not going to have anything blending into the bag's colour). I don't have a dishwasher, so everything is hand washed, and it's no difficulty to get these clean. They do take awhile to dry though. Make sure you crack them open to dry. You could slip one over the top of a glass tumbler, which will allow for air flow and a quicker dry. The only thing of note is that while they are easy to seal, it may be harder to open if you have larger fingers or lack nails. After a bit of practice, you'll find the sweet spot that makes opening these bags a breeze. I love these and will be buying many, many more.
