Quick answer

Choose Earth Rated Easy-Tie if you want easier opening and tying, especially in cold weather. Choose Beco Unscented if you prioritize post-consumer recycled plastic and a thicker feel.

What sets these two apart

Both Earth Rated and Beco make unscented poop bags with handles, but they focus on different priorities. Earth Rated emphasizes convenience features like easy-tie handles and a gusset for extra width, while Beco highlights its eco-friendly materials and thicker bag construction.

The Earth Rated bags are designed to be easier to open and tie, which is a real help during winter when your fingers are cold and stiff. The gusset also gives you a wider opening, making it easier to scoop up larger messes or even cat litter.

Beco bags are made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic, which is a strong selling point if you want to reduce your environmental footprint. They are also described as nice and thick, offering extra protection against leaks and tears.

Tradeoffs at a glance

  • Opening ease: Earth Rated bags are designed to be easier to open, especially in winter. Beco bags have an easy-peel sticker but may require a bit more effort in cold weather.
  • Material and eco-friendliness: Beco uses 100% post-consumer recycled plastic. Earth Rated does not specify recycled content, so if sustainability is your top priority, Beco is the clear choice.
  • Bag thickness and strength: Beco bags are described as nice and thick for leak protection. Earth Rated bags are extra strong but focus more on the gusset and handle design than on thickness claims.
