Stasher vs GoPouch - In Search of the Best Reusable Food Storage bag for Travel

[@chrismiksovsky5871]

Hi, OneBagTravels - Chris here, Founder and Head of Design at humangear. I really appreciate you taking the time to compare our GoPouch to the main competitor. I think you present a fair and well-balanced review of these products. We worked really hard on making GoPouch an easier and better experience compared to zip-seal style pouches and I think you hit on most of the key differences. One subtle benefit or our sealing rail is that it is both much faster and more *certain* to seal. I think most people have experienced the PITA of having to work your way down a zip-style seal to seal it (and sometimes they are just hard to get the grooves lined up) but our rail goes on and off in a second. It's also very hard to know with a zip-seal if you've *really* sealed it all the way along the opening (there can sometimes be a section or an end not fully sealed) whereas with the GoPouch once the slider is on, you know it's sealed. Lastly, everything we make comes with a no-BS lifetime warranty. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts we hope our GoPouches serve you well for many miles and adventures. Safe travels!

Great point I didn't mention in the video, the slider is very easy to use, thanks for the feedback!

Another good review. I've bought a number of silicone products - collapsible plates and tupperware, a collapsible coffee cup and water bottle but I always find they're surprisingly heavy for their size so tend to opt for alternatives.

[@OneBagTravels]

They are heavy, generally I don't use them but I think reusable food bags are the exception for me.

I use the Stasher for my toiletry bag. It doubles as a hot water bottle for an achy back. I just put a wet, heated towel inside. You are right though, gotta watch that seal!

[@OneBagTravels]

Good ideas, I'd be afraid of hot water leaking everywhere 😫

I feel like the stasher stand up mini would have been a more apt comparison with the humangear.

[@OneBagTravels]

Probably. I'm thinking of getting a few more styles to compare them.

@ I use all my stand ups the most, and I have all of them including all the new “bowls”

I spent too much money trying to find a silicone food pouch for travel. Now I don’t carry liquids and snacks generally come in lighter smaller packaging.

What do you use these for, just snacks and nuts? Unless you're buying bulk/loose snacks, I can't see how bringing an extra bit like these brings much more value than just using the original bags which is much more likely in my opinion.

[@OneBagTravels]

Snacks and sandwiches, like I'll make a sandwich for the airplane, also my last trip I filled it with peanut butter pretzels and snacked on them for the week. Kind of depends on what you're doing for how useful it will be, I don't always bring them.

I always have an empty one in my bag to take away leftover food if I go to a restaurant for lunch.
