We've been using these bags regularly for several years now with no complaints. We don't overload the trash and these work really well for us. The degradable plastic in general does seem to tear somewhat easier than "normal" plastic. We just got used to it, see the comment about overloading. It seems to me a more than acceptable tradeoff to get a full size well performing bag that is degradable. And no, I'm not known to be a tree hugger!

These bags have been working really well for my family. I have had no problems with ripping-- though I am using this for kitchen trash. I would definitely not use these bags for any kind of yard debris (think sticks) or remodeling/construction projects (think lumber and nails). However for my kitchen these have worked like a charm. I just wish these were a tad bit cheaper.

This bag is a perfect fit for my garbage/recycle basket. I use the Simple Human rectangular shape receptcables. It's great not having to dump my items directly into the garbage dumpster. Not the sturdiest bag - don't over fill it, but the best I have found for fit. I would purchase it again.

I love that they are biodegrable - a little pricey but willing to pay until more people buy them and price goes down.

I really wanted to like these bags because they are compostable. However, they rip WAY to easily. I removed a full bag from the kitchen trash can and it had several holes in it, so I tried to double bag it. When I put the full bag into an empty one, it just ripped the empty bag completely open. These bags would probably work fine for trash that doesn't have any sharp corners, but for the kinds of things I throw away in the kitchen, these bags just are not going to work. I will not be buying them again for that purpose until they are more durable.
