HoldOn 13-Gallon Trash Bags – Plant-based Tall Kitchen Trash Bags with Drawstring Handles for Tall Trash Bins, Heavy-duty and Compostable Large Trash Bags (40 bags)

It seems like it's made of the same stuff as the bags in the produce section of the grocery stores. I had a bag in the bin for over a week and it didn't leak, even with wet stuff in it. The bags are easy to rip/tear though, so be careful with sharp/pointy things. All in all I'm very happy with the product.

Bag is relatively strong, I like the draw string closing - nice disposal feature.

Love these trash bag! The material is thick and they fit perfectly in my kitchen trash can with lid. We only empty usually once a week and it doesn’t breakdown. After two weeks with it having table scraps it doesn’t start to breakdown. Only had this happen once out of a year of using these bags so highly recommend as an alternative to plastic bags!

They’re must sturdier than other compostable bags, but don’t put anything liquidy in there - the bag will break down quickly. :) Otherwise, love them!

These bags are noticeably weaker than typical plastic garbage bags. It doesn't take much for them to rip as you're pulling them out of the can- either the bag itself, or the drawstrings. It's leaked more often than it hasn't- which is odd because we really don't throw away wet objects? The size is appropriate to slightly smaller than a typical kitchen garbage bin- it fits in the can itself fine but the bottom doesn't touch the bottom of the can. They're double in price compared to their plastic equivalent in the same quantity. I hope that this product continues to evolve to become a bit stronger and less costly.

I bought these to reduce my guilt about lining my cans, using them multiple times or until I can barely lift them out of the can. I saw the Hold On advertised and thought I would give them a try, knowing their competitors had fallen short of the mark. The did not fall short they exceeded them and I have been using them since...they don't leak, they don't break, stuff stays where it is supposed to. And guild reduction achieved.

These are the best bags I have ever used. No flys like plastic bags in trash cans they are the perfect thickness and size for my kitchen containers.It’s little expensive

I've been using these bags for a while now, mainly the kitchen and 4 gallon bags for kitchen trash and cat litter respectively. I do use the baggies too but not quite as frequently.For a home-compostable product and product promised to break down in commercial landfills, I believe the claims. Those two things also make this a pretty eco-friendly product.The only reasons I dock a star are 1) They are not as durable as regular plastic bags. This is not a surprise but is what it is. The kitchen drawstrings almost always break at the drawstring. If the bag is light or not full, not a problem but then the bag isn't fully utilized which leads me to my next point. They're expensive. In the grand scheme, they're not terribly expensive but compared to normal plastic options, these are like 4x the price.A not necessarily negative note: If any moist trash sits in a bag for a certain period of time, maybe a week or so, the bags start to decompose so they must stay dry or be discarded within a few days. I have lifted bags out of receptacles multiple times to find holes have 'melted' through the bioplastic and the bags have started degrading already. This is great meaning they are doing their job, but I try not to generate much trash in the first place so only take my bag out maybe once every 10 to 14 days. With these, I have to take them out more frequently. The attached photo is after I think about 10 days. Probably the best option for families that go through a lot of trash.Still, I support the company for providing a product of this nature. Hopefully quality will continue to go up, and price will go down.Side note: I have contacted customer services regarding what I thought was an issue (which wasn't) and they were very responsive and detailed.
