Storage bags???

I'm just wondering what other moms use to store their milk in. The brand I was using constantly develop leaks while defrosting no matter if I run it under hot water or if I just let it defrost on it's own. I've written a letter to the company because this morning I had to throw out two bags of milk because they started gushing! My supply has regulated for the most part and I'm finding less time to pump at work but just in case I need to freeze some excess I would like to know of reliable mom approved storage bags!

Thank you for the responses, it's actually the lansinoh bags that are leaking, despite following the recommendations on the packaging. I have contacted the company for a resolution, thank you again for the help!

Lasinoh bags worked for me for 14 months!

I also used the Lansinoh bags and froze them laying down flat. Loved them!

i use the nuk bags, if you lay the bag flat in the freezsing when freezing they are fine. i have had one or 2 leak but that was only because i didnt lay those bags flat and they got all scrunched wich i think made a small tear in the bag when moving it around.

No leaks so far with the lansinoh bags, but I've never had any bags longer in the freezer than maybe two months.

I've been using the first years brand and haven't had any problems with leaking.

I like to use the Playtex drop-ins. They have a system where you can pump into them, screw on a top and put them in the freezer/fridge. The only problem with this is that if you are going to pump a lot, it would take up a lot of room in the freezer and it would be a bit spendy buying all of the rings. Other than those I like to use the Lansinoh bags. As long as they are not being bumped around in the freezer they seem to hold up pretty good. Gerber bags did not work at all for me. I ended up dumping a lot of milk due to those bags.
