I’ve heard good things about Stasher bags and ordered a few yesterday (Prime lightening deal), but haven’t tried them yet.

Curious to hear what others have to say.

I have several Stashers and love them!! I ordered a couple more yesterday when they were on Prime as a lightning deal. You can get 20% off on the Stasher website for your first purchase if you take a pledge to reduce plastic waste, too. In addition to the sandwich size, I use the stand-up size to store lettuce in the fridge (it stays fresh and crisp for ages) and the snack size for halves of cucumber/avocado/tomato/etc. I do find that my dishwasher doesn’t get them as clean as hand washing does, but it only takes a minute to wash them.

I was tempted to try the new Zip Top brand but I didn’t want to wait for it to be ready to ship, and I like that Stasher already had reviews.

Bees Wrap also makes a sandwich wrap, if you prefer that to a bag.

I have one stasher bag, I use it for freezing meat. It is the thickest silicone I've seen and dishwasher safe. I think it's overkill for many things though, and they don't come very big.

For snacks to take places I use bumkins, especially for the kids. They are cloth so they don't hold water or keep things from going stale, but they smash into lunch boxes really well. They also clean easily.

Target (and amazon) also sell Full Circle gallon bags. These fit a whole homemade loaf of bread! I also have one with a kid's puzzle in it because my kid destroyed the box. They aren't as thick as Stasher which makes them more pliable. I think for snacks Stasher is more than you need and something like Full Circle is good enough (and much cheaper for buying many of them).

We have a variety of Itzy Ritzy and Lunch Skins snack and sandwich bags. We have a couple silicone reusable ones but I'm not sure the brand and I find them less useful to our lifestyle.
