The 10 best reusable storage bags

This best-selling silicone stasher bag comes in a variety of colors (including aqua, raspberry, and lavender) and sizes, including a half gallon, sandwich, and snack. This lot includes a pack of four small bags.

This set of storage bags gets high marks for its sturdiness but flexibility, and the fact that it does not contain PVC, latex or petroleum-based materials. These bags can also be put in the microwave, dishwasher and freezer.

They can even be sautéed in the oven up to 425 degrees! The 10.5 x 1.5 x 8.25 inch bags feature a Pinch-Loc system to seal air in and keep food fresher longer.

Reviewers like these bags to be “dishwasher safe”. One reviewer says, “I’ve tried a lot of reusable bags, and the fabric ones are getting gross. Vinyls are difficult to clean. This one is the simplest and easiest to use!

If having a nice bag is as important as having a sturdy, user-friendly one, then Itzy Ritzy is for you. The 7×7 inch bag features a variety of designs, from arrows and unicorns to butterflies, and is the perfect size for storing snacks on the go or small portions of leftovers.

All bags are lead, phthalate and PVC free, and feature a zipper closure to keep air out and keep food longer. The cotton bags are machine washable cold. Dry them with a rope.

Reviewers love the look, but some say it would be more practical if you could ‘see what’s inside’. Others like how “durable” and easy to “open and close” they are, which makes them very suitable for children.

This set of standing storage bags is a great starter kit if you are serious about getting rid of your plastic habit. Set of five includes one half gallon (10.35 x 9.25 inch) bag, two sandwich bags (8 x 7 inch), and two snack bags (7.75 x 5 inch). These bags are designed to withstand high temperatures, from minus 40 to 446 degrees Fahrenheit. The bags are freezer, microwave and dishwasher safe.

Reviewers say they are “great alternatives to disposable Ziploc bags.” Others warn that because they are only dishwasher safe for the top rack, larger bags are difficult to clean completely.

This pack of two storage bags is ideal for bulk storage. The Rezip has an expandable base which means it is very compact and easy to clean. The lightweight yet durable bags are made from a durable food grade PEVA material that is also PVC and lead free.

Clear bags come in two sizes, one that can hold six cups (5.5 x 4.5 x 9 inches) and another can hold eight cups (7 x 4.5 x 10 inches). They go in the freezer and can be washed in the dishwasher. Users love the durability, but want them to be even bigger.

This super cute snack pack will appeal to young children and their parents. The graphic design (cartoon birds, buildings, and dogs) and easy zipper closure make it perfect for kids, especially those who have trouble sealing Ziploc bags.

They’re also the right size (7 x 0.2 x 3.5 inches) for on-the-go snacks. The polyester fabric is easy to clean with a wipe, and the entire bag can be placed in the washing machine or in the upper rack of the dishwasher. Air dry to extend shelf life.

Reviewers say they “love these little bags. It was great not having to constantly use and throw away or wash the plastic ones. Others warn that they are not “waterproof.” Snacks that are a little wet like grapes are good, but you wouldn’t want to put anything too watery in them. Others say they seal in freshness for “a day, but can’t store crackers and the like for weeks.”

This six gallon (11.73 x 11.61 x 0.59 inch) pack of vinyl acetate and polyethylene won love for its ability to seal air and keep food fresh for weeks ( even months). The bags are PVC, chloride and lead free and are easy to seal, with improved double closures. Bags go in the freezer, but should be hand washed.

While many reviewers wish they were easier to clean, others are delighted. A satisfied customer writes: “I like the thickness and flexibility of these bags. I immediately tested the tightness and it works SUPER!

Reviewers like that “the pleated bottom spreads out, which makes them stand up” and that they are “easy to use”, with “a good seal”. Others say “they’ve completely replaced the Ziplock bags” in their home.

This set of nine mesh produce bags each measure 11 x 13.5 inches and can be used for a number of items, but it’s mostly used to keep produce fresh and crispy. Each bag is made of polyester mesh and closes with a drawstring. These bags can also be thrown in the laundry.

Reviewers say they can put “8 large Granny Smith apples inside, while still pulling the cord.” These are fantastic!

Others praise the price you get for the price and say they are “simple and effective.” I chose them specifically because they are very easy to see and at the grocery store the cashier does not need to open the bags to read the barcodes. Still others warn that “the mesh isn’t fine enough to use with things like polenta, but it’s perfect for beans and other larger grains!”
