In this video I compare the Zip Top containers to the claims made in the commercial and my own experience. All the clips for the original commercial belong to Zip Top. But the opinions are all my own, I wasn't sponsored.

After seeing their ad I immediately searched for a review and found this video. I definitely will not be buying now after hearing they don't seal. That's a pretty huge deal! Thanks for the video.

Maybe I use mine differently. I’ve never used them for the freezer, but I love them for sandwiches in a cooler and for slices of fruit and stuff in them. They are really nice for saving stews and stuff like that in the fridge. Of all of of them the large meal ones are my favorite since I like Mac n cheese, saving cookies I make, and soups/stew.

Thank you for this review. These looked really cool but every complaint you have presented has demonstrated that this is basically a completely useless product. He literally uses crumbs falling out of a baggy into a back pack and goes "if you're tired of this..." as an example of why to use the product as opposed to something else. Also if the soup is going to leak and splatter because the stupid thing pops open as part of the design is just downright irresponsible. If it can't seal properly don't tell people to freaking put any kind of hot liquid in the product. You're going to get ppl hurt. These blatantly don't do what they claim to do. I would have sent it back and demanded a full refund.

Very helpful review. Saw these at Target for $50 for 3 containers. For that price they should seal very well and repel stains and odors. I’m not sure what the point of these are if you need to have a container to contain your container in.

@MotherhoodwithTeya
@MotherhoodwithTeya 3 жыл бұрын
Oh that does not sound nice. I didn't have this issue. But I did notice my Zip Tops got sticky after drying them in the window... the sun is maybe effecting the silicone? My Stasher was mostly used for dry goods, so I think that's why it didn't get really dirty.

Great video! Kind of curious, I don't recall you mentioning it but did you hand wash your containers or were they run through the dishwasher? Thanks 😊
@MotherhoodwithTeya
@MotherhoodwithTeya 3 жыл бұрын
Yes, they go in the dishwasher. They do how ever stay wet, as most silicone products, the heat dry doesn't dry them. So they need a towel or more air drying after. Hand washing is an option too.
@ria1423
@ria1423 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for confirming, I appreciate your review. I still think I'm going to purchase the set and try handwashing them to see how the seal holds up.. Regardless of the outcome I love the concept of the product and I have no problem with Zip Top taking my money.. Lol 😉

@Alien2799
@Alien2799 Жыл бұрын
Interesting. That is pretty bad that they do not zip completely. The concern I had when watching their commercial is that because of the squeezing on top you effectively decrease the volume. So for example in a similar container, you might be able to put in 750 ml of soup but because here you have to get the sides together maybe you can put in only 500 ml of soup. Do I get it right?

Seriously, just put a small binder clip out two on there to seal them. It'll work. What doesn't work is the insane price. I just bought 2 packs of 2 snack size silicone bags (that have a small down clip that holds the bag sealed) for $3.49 at Aldi. The full size one was the same price.

For freezer, you *could* put whatever in to freeze them and then (yeah I know) put the container *inside* of a freezer bag. Then, since the freezer bag doesn't get dirty at all, you can reu see them. (If you already have them and want a way to freeze in them.)

I think this was a harsh review. I'm sure they tried as hard as they could to make something sealable. I believe that this is a good product and will be improved in the future. Also, just make something when you plan on using it.

According to urban dictionary: Middle aged woman, typically blonde, makes solutions to others' problems an inconvenience to her although she isn't even remotely affected. Karen sues the local city council after they installed a new STOP sign that hides the sun from her window for two minutes a day. The sign was installed after a school boy on his bicycle was hit by a speeding driver and died.
