"I bought the Advanced Model of these retort pouches for storing homemade baby food and soups. The microwave-safe feature is a game-changer—no more transferring food to bowls. I’ve been using them for 5 months, and not a single leak or warp, even with chunky lentil stews. The stand-up design makes fridge storage so much easier."Purchase Date: February 2025 | Usage Period: 5 months

"We use the Base Model for our organic baby food line. The material holds up perfectly during retort sterilization at 121°C, and the FDA compliance gave us a smooth approval process. Customization was straightforward, though I wish the MOQ was lower for small-batch runs. Still, the moisture-proof barrier keeps our product fresh for 12+ months—exactly what we needed."Purchase Date: April 2024 | Usage Period: 8 months
