I have been buying these bags for over 8 years, and I have never had a bag split, break, or leak. They fit my can (Simple Human) perfectly -- I love them!! My hubby and I use to HATE to remove the trash bag from the can because it invariably caught and stuck in the can as the contents shifted as we removed the bag. Not so with the Simple Human can and its custom fit bags. This was truly one of the best purchases I have made to alleviate the little stresses in everyday life. I love the can -- and I love the custom fit bags. PS -- When I calculate the price -- these bags are a steal!!
