About Hefty Ultra Strong Tall Kitchen Trash Bags
Overall Feedback:
92% positive
79% appreciated its stretchability, but 21% found it too rigid.
The trash bags have great stretchiness and are very sturdy without ripping or tearing holes, even with puncture wounds from various trashable contents.
I've found that the store brand I used to buy is far superior to these trash bags. Although they stretch easier over my Simple Human can, they all rip under normal weight kitchen trash.
The trash bags rip easily when stretched around a standard garbage can and when pulled out if too heavy.
The trash bag doesn't stay up or around the can because it doesn't have a stretchy band at the top.
88% highlighted the smell prevention
The trash bags effectively eliminate any odors from the contents inside.
82% liked its leak-proof design, although 18% experienced leaks.
The trash bags leak even at 0.90 mil thickness.
I noticed that the first, second, third and fourth bag leaked. The second bag tore about 8 inches near the top as I was putting it in the trashcan.
Rephrased:
The second bag tore about 8 inches near the top as I was putting it in the trashcan and all four bags leaked.
The trash bags are easy to puncture and leak. I had 3 bags that leaked while only using 20 bags.
I have faced the issue of trash bags not being leak proof multiple times.

80% appreciated the sturdy handles
I have tested the handles of the trash-bags with different types of waste and found them resistant to ripping.
88% praised for its strong material, but 12% found it tore easily.
I have not faced any issue with the durability of the trash bags and have not busted or broken any bags.
I have been using Hefty bags for many years and always loved their durability. However, I found that they no longer have this quality and they rip easily with just putting them into the can.
The durability of the trash bag is not great and it tore while removing it from the bin with watermelon covers and garbage from 4 days.
