I'm not in love with these Food Kozies, but they beat disposable plastic wrap. I purchased both these and some of the Wrap-N-Mat sandwich wraps from Amazon. Both products have their good and bad points. I want to say that I like the Wrap-N-Mats more, but honestly, these Food Kozies get used more than the Wrap-N-Mats do because 1) I'm not as worried about how I wash them and 2) I can label them. Would I recommend either type to someone else? Yes, if I also told the would-be buyer the pros and cons that I have found them to have. In that spirit, here's my comparison of the two items:
Food Kozies
*Round
*Single sheet of PE plastic
*Not a big choice of designs; personally not too excited by their choice of pattern
*So exactly what justification is there for their price other than the fact that not a lot of companies make things like this....?
*An unexpected perk that I love - I can write on these with dry-erase markers so I don't have to open up package after package in the fridge to find out what's inside; marker wipes off pretty easily even after a week or two
*They are just one sheet of plastic so I did get one that was cut slightly (apparently when they attached the velcro); I pulled on the torn edges gently but it didn't seem like the tear was about to go any farther so I just ignored it and it hasn't gotten any worse
*A big positive point for these is that they are all just plastic - I can throw them in the sink and not worry about how long it might be until I do a load of dishes by hand, no worry about discoloration of fabric or mold on the fabric (of course I would never leave anything in the sink long enough to get moldy..... ahem...)
Wrap-N-Mats
*Octagonal
*LDPE plastic liner sewn onto fabric covering
Liner is only sewn around the edges, so it's not quite as neat as I'd like to see it, but there's really no problem here except for a slight aesthetic one; on the other hand, it probably helps keep things more sterile since there isn't any thread to clean on the food side of the wrap
*Really cute designs; my four-year-old actually gets excited about taking them to preschool to show his friends
*Not cheap, but at least there's an indication that some work was done to make this product; seems to justify the price a little more than Food Kozy's sheet-of-plastic-plus-Velcro approach
*They seem pretty sturdy; as the company says there are lines in the plastic, but they are just from the manufacturing and they don't actually hurt the product at all
*The real downfall - I only wash the liner of these and I don't put them in the sink since I don't want the fabric getting food or liquid on it; in other words, they tend not to get washed because they sit beside the sink with all of my "need to be handwashed but are too fragile or special to go into the sink so I only end up washing one or two of these each time I do a load of hand-washed dishes" items
*One note about the Wrap-N-Mats; they have different materials for the liners depending on whether they are made in the US or in China. The ones I got on Amazon mentioned something like "the ones made in the US are made from...." but didn't actually specify whether the item I was looking at was made in the US or not. It turns out that they were, but based on the description I wasn't 100% sure which I would get until I received them.
Both
*LDPE/PE ("sandwich bag plastic")
*Phthalate-free, BPA-free
(presumable both lead free although Kids Konserve doesn't specify)
*Velcro-style closure
*Fairly sturdy; I expect them to stand up to quite a bit of use
*They do keep food surprisingly fresh for much longer than I'd expect from something like this

For what these are, I definitely give them 5 stars. I MUCH prefer them over the Wrap N Mats because there is no cloth ... I was always weirded out by the fabric backing of the Wrap N Mats ... worried they never got fully clean because I had to be so careful while washing. These are much easier to clean because they are only one sheet of plastic. But as another review stated, this could be a downfall if you are looking for something more. I prefer this design personally, but I suppose others could feel differently. Either way, the inside is still plastic ... it does seem to me to be a bit more sturdy than the plastic from the Wrap N Mats though. I was always concerned I'd cut the Wrap N Mats open and eventually did after enough use. So far so good with these.

I guess I didn't do my research. I thought this was a cloth wrapper sort of like a Neat Sheet. But it is all plastic. I was trying to rid my family on the dependency of plastic items so I was disappointed. And quite honestly I have only used it a couple of times because of that.
Pros: It makes a nice place mat for eating the entire meal.
Easy to rinse of
Works just as described.
Cons: Plastic.

Nice..but
I did some research before buying them. They are easier to clean than wrap-n-mat. However I'm a little to old to have "Kids Konserve" labeled on it (it's on the botton though). Read more

Very useful
We have been using these for several months now and they are just part of the kitchen. We now rarely use plastic wrap. Read more

poor quality - but fixed!
I have used these less than 5 times each and the velcro fastener has already fallen off two of them. The concept is great, but the quality is poor. Read more

Good product
I like these wraps- they definitely save on aluminum foil or other disposable wraps. They only fit a small sandwich, which is a pain because I'd like to use them for the whole... Read more
