Do these open easily? I had some small bags like this once that had tiny tabs that were hard to separate and was so frustrating trying to open.

They are very easy to open and seal. They seal really tight also. They don't come attached to that board as the picture shows either. They come connected at the tab so that two bags are attached together at the opening. It's more convenient that way also because it keeps them organized. Hope this answers your question. I have bought them again so that tells you I find them very good quality.

You twist them (to the left I think). I had trouble with one of mine and had to twist and pull quite a bit before it popped open. Tricky little suckers.

They don't "open" ... they are supposed to slide through the eye-hole on the garments zipper and just loop it over, tug on it, and it should stay "forever". I got a bunch of these for my granddaughters - - 4 girls - and each has their own color to identify their matching sweaters, etc. Maybe ask someone in person to show you how. It really should be a cinch.

The sides do open, they have magnets, you have to push in and they pop out so that you can open them. Maybe there is a packing piece keeping it closed, perhaps the tape previously mentioned. I too love it.

I don't think it's supposed to be that hard to open. Mine is very easy to open with little to no resistance at all.

I did not find them difficult to open at all. There is enough space between the rows to access the individual containers.

Nope it is just an opening about the size of a quarter. They stay closed too when you close them, even in my purse and the little handle ring on the side I sometimes clip on to my gym bag. They really are pretty nifty!

I had a lot of trouble with that also. I cut some slits on edge of lid so it would flare out further--not the best solution. They are still very hard to open and close. I have had buckets like this before and not had as much trouble.

The perforated section that can be punched through is not easy to break open! I took a small knife, cut where you can see the perforation marks, and then it punched through pretty easily.

There is a zip strip at the top on the front side of the bag. To be honest I cut mine open too and then found the opening.

I found these to be simple and quick to fill. I just easily filled these with a larger size spoon reg size spoon is fine too. The bags are not meant to be filled too much because then you would not be able to seal them. I have had no trouble filling and or sealing these bags. I think they are very nice and pictures on them are such a plus. Its great that they are not see through because sometimes little ones may only want to eat certain color foods. I have also found these pouches a breeze to clean. I would buy these again for myself and as a gift to someone else as well!! Hope this review helps! I found these to be simple and quick to fill.

yeah, a little tricky. There's a small tab to the left, just move it out a little and the compartment will open up. Others have had the same problem.

I have opened all sizes no problem. You may have to hold the mechanism down but I love it so far

They are not easy to open, and you can travel with it, but you do have to make sure they are securely snapped. I've almost lost a few things by not double checking.

In my experience, the first time you try to open them they are tight because new. Then it gets easier. Pull hard from the handle where it connects to the body of the purse.

Do they literally stand up? Not when empty. They can be a bit clumsy to fill, as you have to use one hand to keep the bag open. Once filled, they act like a paper bag. If you are asking about durability, they are extremely strong -- that's what I love about them. You can fill them to the top and they will not split or tear. I've been using an earlier version for 10 years and none of them ever failed. The problem is that my supply was slowly pilfered away by family/friends/strangers who liked them as well!
