SealStix Bag Sealer For All Types of Bags To Keep Your Food Fresh and Crunchy, 3 Pack

I KNOW how they are supposed to work, but it is trick every time. Works best on slick and smaller bags.

I saw the Gripstic ( Gripstic - 1 Package of 3 Assorted Gripstics ) at a friend's house and was looking for them on Amazon when I came upon these SealStix. They were slightly cheaper than Gripstic so I bought these instead. SealStix are pretty much identical to the Gripstic.================LIKE================- Fun fun fun! You'll want to go around the house looking for anything and everything to seal.- For plastic bags that fit the length of the stick, it seals very well. I seal everything from potato chip bags to frozen vegetable bags.================DISLIKE================- It won't seal all bags. It seals crinkly potato chip bags very well (Lays, Doritos, Terra, etc.)...bags that are a little on the "stiffer" side. It has more trouble with softer plastic bags (bread bags like English muffins, Wonder bread). Also, the bag has to be relatively thin to seal. Sealstix cannot seal bulkier bags like Pepperidge Farm (Goldfish, Milano cookies).Although they seal well for the most part and are extremely fun to have around, they will not replace all bag clips in your kitchen. I use SealStix together with Ikea's Bevara clips ( Ikea Bevara Sealing Clip, Set of 30 ) ($2.99 at Ikea, or you will pay a premium to buy online on Amazon) which are fantastic for sealing most bags (plus they are a whole lot cheaper than Sealstix).

These bag sealers will turn you away from the grocery store clip chips forever. They are strong and form an incredible, strong seal.The size of the sealer is important. If too big, the sealed bag will be clumsy and even top-heavy. If to small, its sealed portion (one side) will be great but the uncovered portion will be loose. The larger the uncovered portion, the larger the chance for air or something else to get into your cereal or chips or whatever you used it for.I would have given the SealStix five stars except it is over-priced. I found lots of 10 per size at nearly the same cost of these three. Had I found it sooner, I would have ordered several sizes. That would have given me 20 sealers compared to 6 (from two bags of three) of the SealStix sealers.If SealStix wants to compete with the other sealer manufacturer, they need to sell each sealer for one dollar (max) or less.If you only need one of these for three different sizes, this three pack will be perfect for you.

I got these because a reviewer said they were as good as the Gripstic version. They are not. I have some Gripstics and we just didn't have enough so these were supposed to add to our total number. They are thinner plastic, and quite a bit more flimsy. I probably could have overlooked that if this model worked as well. They don't.My husband told me that we had to replace our bag holders because they had finally broken after all these years. He didn't know these weren't our originals. Needless to say I'm ordering more Gripstics.

I was skeptical of these. First saw them on QVC and decided to try a three pack before committing to a whole set. Turns out these things are great. They really work. I've used them to store things in the cabinet, refrigerator, and freezer. I don't quite know how durable they are yet, but they seem sturdy enough for sliding on and off bags repeatedly. One tip...if you're using on a bag that has a seam/fold down the back, slide the stick in from the side that has the flap so it doesn't get caught in the flap.

These are difficult to use (even after learning how to use them). I'm going to go back to teh other style that snap close....

I use this for mostly cereal. I'm the only one in the family who will use it as it is tricky and a bit difficult to use on thicker food product bags (like cereal). It certainly works better keeping the air out, compared to other bag clips. You'll have to decide if you want this more difficult better sealer versus a quick bag clip product. If you want to keep a product fresher longer (for more than a couple days) then opt for this.

I like the idea. I got these as a gift. The tip of the longest one was broken but it still works.
