Hippo Sak Handle Trash Bag, with Power Strip, 13 Gallon Tall Kitchen, 90 Count

We love these bags! The popular name brand bags are ridiculously expensive, and the quality has gone downhill, so we went online in search of something different. The reviews for Hippo Saks were excellent, but we were still a bit hesitant to order bags without drawstrings. Turns out the handles on these are indeed long enough to close and tie a full bag and still have plenty of handle to hold onto for carrying it outside. Our kitchen garbage bin is made from wood, is fairly tall, and is square; my wifes brother-in-law built and stained it for her years ago. Shes since hand painted and stenciled designs on it, so as garbage bins go, its very nice, and she loves it. Finding kitchen garbage bags tall enough with ample width to fit around each of the four square corners, without tearing, has been a challenge. Also, we tend to pack our bags pretty full, so they need to be sturdy and leak proof. Visually, these bags appear thin, because they are slightly transparent, but looks can be deceiving. These bags are actually thicker than the Hefty Ultimate Flex bags wed been using (1.02 mil vs .9 mil) and quite strong. Were about halfway through a box of 90, without a single bag tearing or leaking. Theyre also substantially less expensive and made in the USA. These bags have been a great find, and well definitely reorder!

These bags are wonderful!!! I cannot find any sort of trash bags with handles anymore. they all either come with those stupid twist ties or have those plastic pull string ties. Horrible!!! I used to buy this brand of bag at Kroger but not I buy them online. You can tie up the bag with the long handles and still be able to carry the trash without the handles cutting off the circulation in your hand (like the pull string ties do to me) The bags are very strong and dont leak either. The bags also come in the color black if that is preferred.

These compare to the discontinued Glad handle trash bags. Strong bags at a decent price. Will continue to purchase.

Never available. Set up subscriptions only to have the order cancelled due to availability. This has happened several times. Tried ordering single box and have had that cancelled on several occasions. However, fantastic bags when they are delivered!

I found these in a Kroger on sale a bought them because my regular ones were out of stock. Never went back. The handle design is genius, they are durable and you cant beat the value. These are seriously life savers. No more struggling with tying bags or losing my grip, or worrying about the bag tearing.

I live on the third floor dumpster not close these bags have never failed no matter how full or what is in them. Tie up tight no odor no mess.

***updated review after months of using to add: these bags really are the best. Ive converted many friends that cant get over how they never rip, fit & easily come out of garbage cans, etc. buy these bags, you wont be sorry!*** Ok, so it seems kinda strange to be writing a review on garbage bags. But when you think about it....how many times do garbage bags annoy you? And every one of those times its a messy, gross problem to deal with. The bag rips, leaks or gets stuck in the dang can and it takes 2 people to free it, ripping it in the process. Arg!! These bags though...they will change your life. Your garbage process will now seamless, ripless & without smelly, sticky leaks. The bags go in easy. The handles are snug on the top, enough so that the bag never falls in, yet its not hard to get on. When full you can easily slide the bag up without any issues. A novel idea, make the bags the appropriate size for the cans! No more bags getting stuck, needing two or five people to wrestle the dang bag out. And because they are the right size, you dont over fill them, making them easy to pick up! The handle ties are AWESOME. This was the one thing I was worried Id hate but I now prefer it big time. Im almost through my first large box of these bags. I havent had a single leak, rip, defective bag or issue. Not one. Every bag has been seamless, issue-free perfection. I will only buy these bags as long as I live. They rock!

Weve always had a 13-gallon trash can in our kitchen and never really had any size issues with trash bags until about a year ago my son (our households garbage guy) and I noticed that no matter what (common) brand of trash bag I would purchase, the weight of the trash - even a small amount of trash - would cause the entire too-short bag to be pulled off the rim of the can and down into the trash can. No matter what brand I would purchase (Hefty, Glad, store-brand, off-brand, etc.) we would continue to have the same problem with the bag being too short/shallow and falling down into the can. I had never considered purchasing such a basic and common household item as trash bags online, but I was so frustrated I decided to see what I could find on Amazon. I decided to try the Hippo Sak Handle Trash Bags because of the great reviews and these bags did not disappoint! They are plenty long for our 13-gallon can, and we have never had a Hippo Sak trash bag split, tear or break on us. Also the REAL handles (vs. drawstring-type handles) are perfect for securely tying up a full bag of trash, and are plenty strong and comfortable to use for hauling away. The only thing that would make these bags better in (my opinion) is if they were scented or had a scent blocker for stinky garbage. Finally, the price for these bags is very competitive compared to other common brands, therefore I will continue to purchase Hippo Sak trash bags for my household!

I have bought these for years, then i tried the more environmentally sound one, which was grey. That one was ok, but thin and see-through. So, I switched back to this one and found it is much thinner than before - which is good for the oceans etc - as my goal was to not use non-biodegradable plastic, but i needed a strong bag and came back to buy. It is not as it used to be - you can see through this one - and I liked the opaqueness of the product as it used to be. So, now that it is see-through and thinner, I no longer consider it the best garbage out there. NOW, if this was compostable/biodegradable, I would stick with it - but it is not, so Ill keep looking as this product is no longer the same. I used to use it for other reasons - in a rush, bag up clothes to give away, put extra bedding we didnt need - if in a pinch, but now that is see-through and thinner it does not serve that purpose as well. Still looking for a strong compostable / biodegradable non-see-through bag. This is still a good bag - but I no longer want to contribute plastic to the oceans and so thick or thin, it is not ideal.

I got these as a type of gag gift and they are the best trash bags I have ever used. I will never go back to store brand trash bags
