Compared to the silicone and ziplock bags I have been buying until I came across these ones just under a month ago, we are finding Russbe reusable bags to be durable and easy to store, use and clean. It sounds obvious, but after washing leave the bags upside down on the drying rack and let them drip-dry. You absolutely can wash off whatever you write on, easily in my opinion. I have been using biro for these, but sharpie comes off of the takeaway tubs I use with a bit of oomph. I also bought the snack size ones - very happy with my purchase so far.

bought these bags as I thought they would take up less space in freezer but I found they bulked out in a wonky shape when frozen and became hard ,the edges were sharp and stuck out ,cut my finger trying to squash them in,making it impossible to stack anything in the freezer ,also you can not write on the bag because it does not wash off when you use it again,the idea is good but design is flawed I bought this size and the freezer bag size the freezer bag is too big and this size too small what is needed is a more pliable bag sized in between.

I bought these in store for my sandwiches but they are way too small. They're not wide enough for a standard UK 2 slices of bread sandwich despite the photo on the front of the packaging. I tried several ways add the sandwich but the bag is either not wide enough, not tall enough or doesn't expand enough.

Wasn't sure I'd like the idea of a washable bag but they're really easy to clean and use. The base is also clever to help with filling/standing up in the fridge/cupboard. Highly recommend.

I bought these as I thought that it was a really good idea to replace plastic bags and containers do take up more room in my small freezer, the problem I have found is that having stored lemon slices, onions and some casseroles in them the smell that adheres to the bag is very strong and I cant get rid of it making them not suitable to reuse for anything else, their reusable value is limited to what was first put in them
