                Reviews Summary
                Customers say these trash bags are sturdy and reliable for small waste bins. Many reviews mention their perfect fit for bathroom trash cans and compost bins. Common feedback includes appreciation for the bags' durability, though some note they run smaller than expected. While most find them strong enough for regular use, several mention difficulty with the roll's adhesive sticker damaging the first bag. Frequent comments address their suitability for bathroom waste and food scraps, though opinions vary on size compatibility with different containers.

                  Perfect for us!

                  Our family of 5 happily uses both sizes of these trash bags. I don't mind the flaps at all and just remind myself to not super over fill them. I grabbed some little bands for holding trash can bags up online and it keeps the bag perfectly in place until I'm ready to take out the trash! I do wish the 3 gallon had flaps, but it has finally gotten me to actually empty our small cans before they are at their limit. We will never go back!

                  Working well

                  Doing great in a tiny bathroom garbage can. Can handle some moisture without disintigrating.

                  Sturdy and easy to use

                  These small "3-gallon" bags are perfect for scooping kitty litter and lining very small waste bins. They come apart easily, and I have no trouble opening them. FYI they would NOT fit into a three-gallon bucket, but do line a 1-gallon bin.

                  Great Bags

                  These are great trash bags! They fit perfectly in my larger trash/bathroom bins. I really like the tabs for tying and they are light weight but won't break easily.

                  Thanks,

                  Evelyn N.
