    Compostable Certified, but Leaky
  

*by J***G on Reviewed in the United States on 16 December 2014*

As a resident of Seattle, we have to put our food waste into the biomass waste bin (the one that combines food waste and yard waste). I also learned that there is a difference between biodegradeable bags and compostable bags; compostable bags break down much faster without leaving small pieces of plastic behind. We needed to get compostable bags in order to work with the city's waste collection.Since we cook a lot for a family of four, I wanted 13 gallon sized compostable bags (which are the size of regular kitchen trash bags) instead of the much smaller capacity food waste bins commonly sold around the city. There are only a handful of options for 13 gallon sized compostable bags certified for use.Unlike yard waste, food waste degrades and smells bad very quickly. The most problematic part for a compostable bag is that food waste has a lot of liquid or the food waste breaks down into liquid fairly quickly. Water will then activate the break down process.BioBag is compostable and is certified, but it suffers from the leakage problem. I had to take out the food waste very quickly or else I would need to have a large clean up afterwards. Thanks to my brilliant wife, I start the double bag to extend the life of the compostable bags. I have tried two brands for several months, and BioBag leaks far more than Stout EcoSafe 6400. I don't recommend the current formulation of BioBag.

    Bags are good, not great. Price is now outrageous.
  

*by K***L on Reviewed in the United States on 1 February 2015*

3 stars for the bags themselves. My experience with the bags has been good, not great. They do appear to break down over time. The box says to use them within one year, but there is no date stamp, so you cannot know how long they have sat on a shelf. I've purchased 2 sets of these bags. About 10 months after I purchased the first set, the bags started coming apart and leaking into the trash can. I used the second set within 4 months and I've had no problems.1 star for pricing. The price has now almost doubled. Was ~$19 in October. Now this 4-box set is ~$34.Sounds like the mfg is boosting the price to make more profits.At $19, they were expensive, but I was willing to pay it. I will not pay $34 for these bags.Update 2015.10.12: I see the price has come back down to $20 for a set of 4 boxes. And boxes are now date stamped with quarter and year. Which is all good. However, I cannot see the date stamp when I order online, so I am buying locally at a little more per box ($5.60), but I can see the date stamp and will not purchase if already close to a year old

    Work ok if you use them right
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United States on 5 December 2013*

I purchased these to use as regular trash bags. Most of my garbage is biodegradable/compostable but NYC is so behind the times they don't have a decent city compost pickup nor am I interested in bringing only a very select portion of my compostables to the farmers markets once a week. As a west coast transplant it's seriously apalling to me how backwards this city is. In any case, these bags are just ok. My biggest issue with these bags is how quickly they break down when there is anything even remotely moist in the bag. I have only used them in colder weather, I have no idea how they will hold up in the hot humid summer. Also my trash is picked up 2x per week.A few tips to improve your experience: 1) Line the bottom of your garbage bag/can with a few pages from a newspaper or catalog or other thick paper source you are probably just going to recycle. This will soak up any liquids and reinforce the bottom of the bag. 2) Take out your garbage daily. These bags disintegrate when wet. 3) If your bag seems pretty wet, double bag it. It will likely decompose in your trash can leaving you a mess to clean up.Another trick I use with these bags is since I take my garbage out daily and minimize the amount of garbage I'm putting in there, I only fill up a small portion of the bag. I push all the air out of the bag and tie it super tight. Then I wrap up the ball of tied off garbage in the tail part I tied off and tie that up. That actually works as a double bag solution and prevents the bag from breaking down too much.I'm currently experimenting with other brands of bags because I really dislike how these degrade so quickly. However, I like that I know that these will break down and I know what's in them.
