Keeps food really fresh – Buy if you want to lock freshness in your food, or for meal prep

Use for storage only… – So for storage I would give these a 5 star absolutely… as I found out the hard way, I wouldn’t recommend using these for sous vide cooking (and I realize they were not really marketed for anything other than storage). I purchased these to try and sous vide a large item that was difficult to fit into a sous vide vacuum bag without the pleated sides. Unfortunately, while they held up for the actually cooking, the sides split open right after taking the item out of the water bath… so… storage only for the rest of these rolls!!

Perfect for big size food – These bags are great for turkey, chicken or ham. Bigger cuts of meat

Great way to cook a turkey, but read on for cautions. – First off, this is for two rolls, not two bags, just in case anyone was confused by this.

Great product, but very difficult lining up the pleats perfectly, to get a good seal. – I purchased these specifically, for two extra large ceramic casserole dishes of lasagna I made to be frozen, for an upcoming week of a family get together don in TN, as I am preparing foods in advance. I had a few hurdles to overcome however in using these. The instructions were clear, that I needed to allow an extra 5″ off bag, to allow me to get the pleats folded EXACTLY the way they come on the roll, for the machine to get a good seal. Food Saver even included a paper measuring piece, so you knew you had the 5″ of extra bag. HOWEVER, to my surprise on the 1st pan we did, (BTW, these were already frozen, with parchment paper over the lasagna, and wrapped in butchers freezer paper, before I learned these bags were available), so when we unwrapped the 1st one, to put it in this bag, we found lining the pleats up perfectly, became a 2 person task, as once one side was lined up, someone had to hold them tight, while I lined up the pleats on the other side. Once accomplished, we both held our pleats tight, as we maneuvered the casserole into the vacuum channel of the machine. To my surprise, it sucked it down over the edges of the casserole, right down to the top of the lasagna, (which is great, as that eliminates any ice crystal formation), but there was one end of a lasagna noodle curled up, that I didn’t notice, as I left the original parchment paper on top of the lasagna, but as it pulled it tight, that noodle actually punctured the bag which then allowed for an air leak, and making it impossible to seal. Luckily, we had a roll of packing tape in a kitchen cabinet, and we grabbed it, as I pushed the noodle down flatter, my wife quickly applied two overlapping pieces of packing tape, which stopped the air leak, allowing the bag to seal, and stay sealed. When we did the 2nd pan of lasagna, I lifted the parchment paper 1st, and than used a large spoon to flatten out any points sticking up, before we placed the casserole in the bag, and the 2nd one was flawless.

Good for Sous Vide and storing 3D printer filament – I have a FoodSaver, and I originally came across this bag size when attempting to Sous Vide large prime rib roasts that just won’t fit in the typical bags. Target used to carry these, but alas no more. These bags hold more due to pleats at the sides that unravel to make a larger bag. Just be sure to leave a larger (i.e 5+ inches) header/slack at the open end so that sides can reoppose flat for sealing. You’re supposed to seal the ends on “wet mode” due to the need to seal 4 layers of plastic that fold up at the sides. However, if you’re like me and don’t have this mode, then just actuate the sealer mode twice (latch, seal, unlatch, wait for FoodSaver power light indicator to turn off, relatch, seal, unlatch, viola!)

Great for larger cuts of meat – I wanted to buy a different brand to save money but the listings were poorly written. These bags cost more, but arrived exactly as described and worked great. I’d rather be certain that I am getting what I want but get the item that meets my needs.
