PackFreshUSA: 10 Pack - 7 Mil - Five Gallon Heavy Duty Mylar Bags - 2000cc (Individually Sealed) + 500cc Oxygen Absorbers - Rounded Corners - Long-Term Food Storage

Great product

If I need more I will definitely come back here for them! Bags were packaged nicely and there is no damage to any of the bags. Thank you!

I was able to load about 15-25 lbs of rice with no problems. Works great

A lot of these bags from other makers are too thin, these are thick enough to resist puncture. I also prefer to receive oxygen absorbers that match the bag size and these did come with the proper absorbers.

They will work for my needs a little hard to fold down

Works well in the buckets and seals great for long term

I was apprehensive about long term food packing with mylar and Oxygen Absorbers. I don't know why, guess afraid I would mess something up. But the PackFreshUSA kits were complete, and with very detailed instructions. I read them thoroughly, started with small quantities and then finished with the larger sizes. Very helpful folks!

This is going to be a long review. You’ve been warned. First, all the people complaining about the bags not being the shape of the buckets. Seriously? I can’t with you. You literally have to use your hands to flare the bag to fit. I saw someone complaining about the o2 absorbers being old and not working. Ok. Let me be clear. Once you open the o2 absorbers you cannot leave the bag open. You have to reseal (vacuum seal) the bag of absorbers or they will absorb o2 for a couple hours and be done. I saw people complaining about the o2 absorbers not sealing their jar and they were “worthless”. Come on people! You have to vacuum seal the jar with the o2 absorber inside. The absorber will absorb the o2 left in the jar after vacuum sealing and keep the food fresh. You STILL have to vacuum seal the jar!! I’ve seen people complaining about holes in bags from being folded. I have ordered these bags before from this company and didn’t have any “holes”. However I will say that I read (maybe on their website) that it’s not really holes. The silver lining can flake off but it doesn’t affect the integrity of the bag. Just what I read so I can’t confirm. The person who had trouble vacuum sealing their bags and kept buying more only to complain about the new ones again not sealing. You might want to check your vacuum sealer! Just sayin. Having said all that, I will add MY review! These bags are awesome. They are super heavy duty and conform well to the buckets as long as you put in the effort to form them to the bucket. You should also squeeze out any extra air before sealing their bag because the o2 absorber only absorbs so much. Either way I’m purchasing another pack of 10 today because they’re so good. And they are big enough to hold a 40 lb bag of rice and probably 50lb if you have a bigger bucket. A 5 gallon bucket won’t hold 50 lb. I only got about 35 lbs of rice, and 30 lbs beans in a bucket to have room to use a gamma lid. Point is, try these bags. Yes they are slightly more expensive but they are great quality and well worth the cost!
