I've always been an advocate of the phrase "you get what you pay for" and that saying rings very true for trash bags. Nothing is worse than taking out your trash, only to have the bag rip/tear while you're carrying to your trash bin... Or having your trash bags rip open after a bad thunderstorm and having to pick up all your trash that has blown all over the place. Because of my experiences with those scenarios, I've vowed never to buy generic trash bags.
With that said, I've always purchased the ForceFlex line. The plastic is tough, it doesn't tear and the fact that it grips the can is a bonus. However, because the ForceFlex line is Glad's premium bag, you spend a little more on the cost per bag. But the performance of the bag is so good, NOTHING compares. Never a rip, never a tear, and did I say that it grips my kitchen trash can? I *HATE* having bags that do not grip the can and with the simple toss of trash into the bin, the whole bag collapses into the bin. These ForceFlex bags are the CREAM OF THE CROP! But they are expensive... dang expensive. I only buy them when I have a coupon and/or via Subscribe & Save. But w/ the new addition in the home (baby), I decided to try the next level below of the Glad bags.
I opted to get the non-ForceFlex OdorShield Glad bags with the Febreze scent (like this one:
Glad OdorShield 13 Gallon Kitchen Drawstring Trash Bags, Fresh Clean Scent, 40 Count
). I've tried various ones and those bags are literally trash. Nothing about the Odorshield bags are good. I suppose the only bonus is that it smells nice with the Febreze OdorShield scent but once you start piling in the trash, it smells ultra terrible. Nothing is worse than "masking" a bad odor. I've had several bags already rip and tear not only while in my kitchen trash can, but almost completely ripping open while I was taking the full bag to my outdoor trash receptacle. I'm not overfilling my kitchen trash and usually there is room to spare in the bag, but because of the rip tendencies, I immediately went back to the ForceFlex line.
Looks like I will have to find another way to cut costs in my house. I'll definitely not make that mistake again for trash bags. If you want a quality trash bag, get Glad ForceFlex!!
