Yes and no best in my review

I like the thickness and quality of bags, but remember do not let the air valve go under the water. It will fill you bag with unwanted circulation water. Yuk. Not to mention your poor sous vide machine will need a good cleaning. The suction tool is not the easiest to get lined up, so it takes many frustrating tries. The video was the product not acting up like usual. It usually takes minutes to suck all air out. Remember the air valve and tool have to be perfectly aligned to work. Over all. I…

Pros
  • Price is right. Works well with sous vide cooking.
Cons
  • It’s pretty difficult to get all the air out of these.

I tried two bags -- the small and the big ones --, but both were a bit difficult to create negative pressure (vacuum). Eventually, I managed to do so, but on 12-hour sous vide bath. Both leaked the contents. :-(So I'm a bi disappointed. I'd say that for sous vide, these bags might not be your best option.

Pros
  • Adequate. Vacuum pump is a little difficult to use but with some practice it gets the job done.
Cons
  • The idea is great but the execution is off. The bags tear easily.

Easy to use NOT WATER PROOF

They are easy to use and convenient for a cheap reusable option for sous Vide however they aren’t really easy to clean especially if you put butter or oily food in it. Also make sure the air port doesn’t go under the water. It may be air tight but not water tight which is a real bummer kind of my only negative. If that’s not a concern for you then this is a great product.

Pros
  • Reduces the risk of cross-contamination
Cons
  • They might be more prone to breaking or tearing than traditional bags

Cool little extra good for me

Easier than using two bags and a straw. I use mine to cook meat so I’m probably not going to clean the bag, but didn’t want to give it a low star. I think for the cost and something easy you can throw away this product rocks.

Pros
  • Sous Vide Machines
Cons
  • The bags may require specialized equipment for sealing

Great product in my review

Very good product to get if you don't want to pay the 3 times higher price for vacuum seal machine. THis takes up less room, works very easily, usually just 3-4 pumps before all air is out. A solid buy.

Pros
  • Eliminates the need for disposable bags
Cons
  • The bags may not be as convenient for meal preparation

Highly recommend! on my review.

If you plan on doing a long cook with your sous vide (3+ hours), I would recommend buying these bags. I made short ribs for Christmas that I cooked at 170 for 33 hours and they were PERFECTTTTT! The bags didn't fall apart or leak. Must have!

Pros
  • Great for meal prep and portioning
Cons
  • The bags may not be as convenient for cooking smaller portions

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Probably not as good as the stars imply.

1. Because the bottom of the bags are square and not rounded, in addition to the textured side it is almost impossible to clean these bags.2. I believe the tops of the bags may not fully seal, at least not the same way Ziploc bags do so make sure the to is above water and rolled down.3. Even in doing #2 my bags so would with more water content inside the bag, making me before the game itself is also a weak point for leaks.In would not buy these again.

Pros
  • Preserves nutrients and flavors
Cons
  • The bags may not be as versatile as advertised

Like them, not sure they're critical

used them maybe a dozen times, seem to work okay (one leaked due to a bad seal by me). I got pretty much just as good a result with a zip-lock bag using the submersion method.

Pros
  • Great for preserving leftovers
Cons
  • They might be more prone to leaking during cooking

Good reusable bags - my new review

The bags themselves seem to be good for sous vide. I received them around a week ago and promptly cooked some Filet Mignon using them (salt, pepper, and meat only). The bags held vacuum the entire time, however using the pump provided proved to be a bit difficult. I found it took many trials to finally get a good seal between the pump and the bag to finally get the air pulled out. I ended up using the water submersion to remove most of the air and then using the pump to finish it off. The pump…

Pros
  • Specialty Appliances
Cons
  • The bags may not be as convenient as disposable options

Great for the price

Works great for sous vide. I've reused the bags about 5 times each now and they are finally starting to show their age. Will buy more when they finally give out.

Pros
  • Protects food from freezer burn
Cons
  • The bags may not be suitable for use at high temperatures

Pretty good on my review.

Have been using it for a while now. Pretty good and it gets the work done. it takes little bit effort to suck the air out of the bag sometimes if it is not perfectly lined with the pump thingy. But overall I am happy that no longer single use bags in use.

Pros
  • Safe for use in the freezer and fridge
Cons
  • They might require additional time and effort to seal properly

Works Great! in my review

Got these bags as a safer alternative to regular Plastic bags. The quality and construction is great. The vacuum sealing may take a few tries to get it right, but it does work. There are helpful tips on how get it to work right on the Instruction Manual as well. For the price, these are well worth the money

Pros
  • Saves money on disposable bags
Cons
  • The bags may not be suitable for use with strong-smelling foods

Worked great and the price is right!

I bought these OUII bags for use with my new sous vide machine. They work great -- vacuum sealed the chicken with no leaks, and no need for a bulky, expensive vacuum sealer machine. The bags are reusable, too, so less plastic waste.

Pros
  • Saves time and money on food prep
Cons
  • They might require additional equipment to use

Vacuum bags best in my review

These bags are durable and easy to use. Comes with all needed supplies to operate. Bags are thick enough to handle course objects and still seal correctly.

Pros
  • This is a great value for the money. I loved the variety in the sizes and the ease of use.
Cons
  • Like bags...pump doesn't work at all

Great and sturdy reusable bags

The bags work great. The seals are airtight, and the bags are sturdy enough to be used over and over again. The pump is a bit of a hassle. You have to line the pump up perfectly with the valve to effectively suck out the air. It takes a bit of trial and error at the start l, but once you find the sweet spot, the air is easily extracted.

Pros
  • Convenient and space-saving storage
Cons
  • The bags may not be as easy to use as traditional bags

OK but not the best

This system works, but regular Zip Lock bags with a slider are better and cheaper food holders and a bowel of water, properly used, removes air from the bag better than the pump.

Pros
  • Protects food from moisture and air
Cons
  • The bags may not be suitable for use with certain types of sauces

Ok but not great, not cost effective

I was excited to try these bags with my sous vide but quickly found out they're a bit of a pain to use. The pump has to be properly aligned with the valve and pumped many times to achieve good vacuum. The bags themselves are sturdy but the problem is with reusability. If any food contacts the fragile valves, it's game over, throw that bag out or you'll find it leaking the next time you try to reuse it! They are also difficult to clean even if you flip them inside out because one of the sides is

Does the job! for my opinion

Contents are solid. Had no issues with the bags, clips, or the hand pump, which does a great job of taking the excess air out of the bag. Easy to use and clean, and great value for the money since the bags are reusable.

Pros
  • Kitchen & Dining
Cons
  • They might be more expensive than traditional bags

Excellent Stand-In for a Vacuum Sealer

I didn't test how easy it was to clean, since I didn't even attempt to clean the first bag I used.Even without reading any instructions, just pulling things out of the box and trying them, these are simple to use, and effective. They made my very first attempt at cooking Sous Vide easy, and helped the results come out delicious.

Pros
  • Optimizes food storage capacity
Cons
  • They might not be as easy to clean as advertised

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works as advertised

Bags work as advertised and are very easy to use. These bags are much better than trying to seal a regular zip-lock bag. Thanks for attention!

Pros
  • Makes meal prep and storage a breeze
Cons
  • They might be more expensive than other reusable options
