Product review (4 stars): I keep buying 'em so they must be fine!
I use these in the bullet trash basket in the kitchen.  I don't like the true tie - I use a twist tie, but the bag never tears as I rassle and crush it for the ride in the trash barrel.  All the garbage goes in this, so I don't want it to burst.  I put it out the night before pickup, and it's never been bothered by coyotes or other critters, and that's what counts.
