No problems in shrinking first time out
I ordered these for wrapping soap bars and ordered them somewhat oversized due to some comments about smaller bags being a tight fit. These have about 3/4-1" margin all around my bar before shrinking. My first attempt was with an industrial heat gun without temp control and I tried one bar with the bag end open and the other with the bag end lightly sealed with a small X-acto knife slit in a corner to allow air out when shrinking.I think getting a good shrink is really all about patience and technique. Both bags shrunk very cleanly when using the low setting and gradually moving in closer until the bags started shrinking and no closer. There were some initial fisheyes which were easily worked out and some minor dog ears at the corners, particularly the one I slit so as not to split the bag if I overdid things. The unsealed bag left a somewhat unsightly opening on one end and since I use no fragrance in soaps I don't really need an opening. The lightly sealed bag had a much cleaner look. I expect a variable temp gun would do the job better mostly in terms of maybe being faster and not having to creep up on the bag.I didn't find the bags flimsy or difficult to handle. I also didn't notice any discoloration or color cast once shrunk. I would buy these again and will probably have to in short order. My last batch resulted in 72 bars alone.

Cookie artist approved✅
Absolutely loved what I purchased. Hobby lobby doesn’t have what I need but luckily these bags saved my Mother’s Day sugar cookie sale. I was able to quickly package and seal all my cookies with my hair straightener. Not super great for presentation by using hair straightener but I understand that it’d work excellent if I had a real heat seal iron. They fit all my big cookies.

Love these
I dont understand the negative reviews on this product. I wrapped over 150 bars of soap for a show and they all came out perfect. I used my heat gun on low setting and I didn't have any problems with holes or not shrinking. I will be reordering.

Don't buy
No matter how many times I try to use them they do the same thing they wrinkle they won't shrink right and they rip apart and a bunch of pieces. So I wasted my money they're unusable and I've had plenty of shrink wrap for soap that I know works. These are no good to me

Not great.
These are quite thin, and difficult to work with. Not a very smooth appearance without getting a hole in the bag.
