No leaks here...
I have found these bags to be the best ones out there. They are thicker mm of plastic have a double seal and a separate area to write on to avoid ink contamination. In my opinion they are also much easier to pour to/from than other brands.
I also appreciate how they lay flat for more space-efficient storage. They have held up very well in my deep freeze in arctic temperatures!
I have used approximately 2000 bags (seriously) and I have had only 9 that leaked. While I was sorry to lose those bags I consider 9/2000 to be pretty impressive odds.
These are more expensive than other ones out there but I will pay that price to store my "liquid gold"!
If you are continually having difficulty with leaking bags make sure you are freezing no more than 6 ounces at a time. Even though it looks like it will hold more the milk will expand in the freezer. Also you may want to freeze smaller quantities of milk so that there is less waste. You want to ensure that your baby will drink all that you defrosted rather than having to discard it. I found it helpful to freeze some amounts in larger quantities like 4 or 6 ounces and then smaller "top off" amounts for 2 or 3 ounces. Smaller amounts also less time to thaw...although this means you will use more bags. Also don't drop them once they are frozen which can also contribute to leaks.More detail ...
