Amazon Basics Poop Bags Review: Best Value Poop Bags on the Market?

The Amazon Basics Dog Poop Bags are the #10 best-selling dog product on all of Amazon — 236,906 reviews at 4.8 stars. They're also the cheapest quality poop bags on the market, at $9.92 for 300 bags with a dispenser and leash clip included. But how do they compare to the premium option, Earth Rated?

What You Get

The Amazon Basics pack includes:

• 300 poop bags (20 rolls of 15 bags each)
• 1 dispenser that holds a roll of bags
• 1 leash clip to attach the dispenser to your leash

The bags are unscented, 13"x9" (slightly larger than the standard 9"x13" Earth Rated bags), and leak-proof.

The Leash Clip Dispenser

The included dispenser is a genuine value-add. It holds one roll of bags and clips directly to your leash, so you always have bags accessible when you need them. The clip is sturdy and doesn't accidentally detach during walks.

This is the feature that makes the Amazon Basics bags a better value than they appear at first glance — you're not just getting bags, you're getting a complete waste management system for under $10.

Thickness Comparison

The Amazon Basics bags are thinner than Earth Rated bags — this is the main quality difference between the two products. In my testing, the Amazon Basics bags held up fine under normal use, but they showed more stress at the seams under pressure than Earth Rated bags.

For most dogs and most situations, the Amazon Basics bags are perfectly adequate. The risk of a bag failure is low, but it's higher than with Earth Rated.

The Unscented Choice

The Amazon Basics bags are unscented, which some owners prefer. If you find the lavender scent of Earth Rated bags unnecessary or overwhelming, the Amazon Basics bags are the better choice.

Value Comparison

Amazon Basics costs $0.018 less per bag and includes a dispenser. Earth Rated is thicker and scented.

Verdict

4.8/5 stars. Amazon Basics Dog Poop Bags are the best value poop bags on the market. The included dispenser and leash clip make them a complete solution at an unbeatable price. The bags are slightly thinner than Earth Rated, but they're perfectly adequate for everyday use. If budget is your primary concern, buy these. If you prefer thicker bags and a lavender scent, buy Earth Rated.
