This £14.99 set from PHILORN consists of a mixture of heavy-duty silicon storage/cooking bags and mesh storage/shopping bags both in a range of sizes.
The set arrived sensibly packaged in a eco friendly cardboard box with all you need to know about the contents printed on it. No further instructions or information were included with the set. In the box were just the bags themselves:
2 x 1000ml / 30oz silicon bags: 17 x 19 x 8cm
2 X 1500ml / 50oz silicon bags: 21 x 24 x 10cm
2 X Small Mesh Bags: 28 x 43cm; 15G
2 X Medium Mesh Bags: 28 x 43cm; 20G
2 X Large Mesh Bags: 28 x 43cm; 25G
The silicon bags here are far thicker and stronger than any I have used before and in fact the thickness can make them rather unwieldy to use at times, but warming the bag in hot water first makes it far more easy to use and allows the plastic seal strip to draw in place quickly and without too much effort. Yes, these have a separate plastic sealing strip that the mouth of the bag is passed through and once in place the bag is fully air and watertight. You can drop it and even stand on it without it coming open or bursting. Unlike lesser rivals, these silicon bags are fully microwave, oven, refrigerator, freezer, and dishwasher safe. They are registered as safe for use between -60℃ to 220℃. The bags are all marked with a rather hard to read measuring scale of the contents and when full can stand upright as the bottom pulls apart to form a base.
As shops become increasingly eco-friendly they are starting to drop shrink wrapping and plastic bagging fresh fruit and veg and allowing shoppers to use their own reusable bags. The mesh bags included here are perfect for this as they are strong, with a robust drawstring seal and allow air and moisture to keep the contents fresh.
This is a useful and well-made set that will be handy both in the kitchen and at the supermarket and without damaging the planet.
