I did not use the bags for collecting milk - rather I collected in medela containers and then transferred them to the bags for freezing. To make the most use of my freezer space I would lay the bags flat for the intial freezing and then stand them up ina storage container. They defrost easily in a sink of cool water. I experienced no leaking from these bags like a I did from another brand.

The bags are a great idea - my wife and I find them to be of great use. However, one cannot ever be sure that the bags will not leak during thawing. At first, we though this was just an issue of leakage from an improperly activated seal, but I have noticed that they also leak from the base. Having lost several bags of milk this way, I cannot recommend the bags very highly. Get with the program, Medela - surely you should be aware that folks don't wish to see their milk flowing down the sink!

These bags are awful and in my experience, after they are in the fridge, leak more than 50% of the time and, if they put in the freezer, leak more than 80% of the time. Yuck! The Lansinoh bags are wonderful--get those instead!

I tried 5 different milk storage bags so far - Medela (this one), Lansinoh, First years, gerber, and Dr. brown. I liked them all. So far I have not had any leak in the past 3 months of use. Medela bags are thick and seem to be very well made. The volume marks are pretty accurate if you make the bag stand up with the bottom part pulled all the way wide. I do have two complaints though. (1) The bag is too small. I only put ~3oz in this bag. Putting in more makes the bag too fat and harder to close and store. All the other bags are about the same size (twice this bag) and freeze flat even with 5 oz in them. (2) The tape top to use directly with the pump doesn't work well. I tried a couple of times but found them not secure enough. I went back to pumping into a bottle then transferring to bag. This feature also includes tear-off top part, which does not tear off well, even with the perforation.

Since I was using a Medela Pump In Style, I just decided to stick with their bags. Unlike others, I have no major complaints about this product.
I find the plastic to be solid and strong enough to withstand the temperature of my deep freezer without issues. Yet it is pliable enough for me to adjust it to get a good reading of the ounce markings on the side. It also lends itself to thawing quickly quite well.
As for issues with closing the bags, I am not sure why so many women are having difficulties. Maybe it is because they are trying to complete it one-handed while holding their children. To me, if you can close a Ziploc bag, you can close the Medela bags. I've had no trouble opening them again after they have been thawed either.
The strap is just a piece of sticky paper with one side coated with a thin layer of some sort of plastic. If you are moving around while pumping, it isn't going to hold up under all that movement. However, if you're still and not overfilling the bag (past 5 ounces), the strap shouldn't break on you.
I will state this is one of the pricier bags out there, but if you can find a seller who offers it cheaper, go for it and buy in bulk.
