Hefty Renew Tall Kitchen Bags, 13 Gallon, 45-Count Boxes (Pack of 6) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We have a 45-pack of these. They are grey plastic, 13G (49L), recycled plastic, tall kitchen trash bags.
They tear.
The body of them isn't TOO bad. Worse than average, but it's tolerable.
The real problem is around the top. There's an embedded drawstring, and about 1/2 inch down from there, the bags always tear.
If I hold it by a quarter of the rim (big hands, bunched up) or spread out, they tear.
If I hold the trash bag up in order to wiggle the trash so it spreads out and the bag can close, the rim tears off.
If I use the drawstrings to close the bag, the rim tears off.
Then, trying to re-tie below the tear, one out of 5 times the bags tear again. I've had bags tear trying to double-bag over the top.
These are the worst bags I have ever used in 35 years. They give a bad name to recycled goods and a bad name to Hefty brand.
Seriously, buy some other type of bag. Anything else but these. They are frustrating and can lead to mess because they tear.
UPDATE
We contacted customer service and they apologized. They asked for the box and a few of the problem bags to send to the product manager. In exchange, they sent us reimbursement for postage plus several coupons for free hefty products.
We went ahead and used up the rest of the roll so as not to waste, and when we got to the last third of the roll, things got better.
It's most likely we got a bad batch, but we've since used Steel-Sak and the non-recycled white plastic bags with decent results.
