    These bags do NOT dissolve immediately in freshwater

    Reviewed By:

    To honor my Dad's final wishes, we proceeded with a water burial of his cremains. Based on several reviews here I expected that the bag would dissolve immediately after deposited into the water. However, I learned during my Dad's water burial they do NOT. My family sat there and waited and watched and wondered whether or not the bag would dissolve for 40+ minutes. This distracted and took away from our final goodbye ceremony and caused me a lot of stress since I am the one who purchased the bag and set the expectation that the bag would dissolve immediately based on the reviews I read here. When I called Perfect Memorials during the burial to verify additional specifics on timing and manufacturer to know what to do or what to tell my family about why the bag wasn't dissolving, they couldn't provide confirmation details on timing or the manufacturer of this bag. I was only told that it could take anywhere from a few minutes to a couple hours from a representative and later a manager. I searched Google online and found that some of these bags could take 3-6 months and panicked. If I would have known this prior, and there would have been a more accurate review or description of when the bags would dissolve, there would have been different planning and expectations involved. My family left and after I returned more than 4 hours later fortunately the bags were partially dissolved. I was prepared to try to enter the water if needed to retrieve the bag out of fear. Fortunately I did not have to. This was so extremely stressful for me. Please be aware that these bags dissolve differently depending on many conditions and the type of water. I am writing this review to create awareness so that hopefully other customers and people mourning their loved ones proceeding with a water burial and wanting to purchase this bag will not have the same experience as I and my family did. I am giving 3 stars instead of 1 star because I shouldn't have trusted the reviews and should have called or researched more to verify prior to moving forward with having my Dad's ashes put in this bag to be used for freshwater burial. In my grieving I was not thinking clearly and will take accountability for this.

    This bag worked perfectly for a water memorial. The bag disintegrated shortly after being in the water.

    We put my husbands ashes in it along with rose petals and took it out into the water at the beach. I thought it would sink and dissolve quickly but it floated out to sea and didn't sink for about 15 minutes. We could see it was dissolving as there were rose petals in the water but it kept floating. It worked out fine but was not what I expected to happen.

    I needed something documented as biodegradable to use for a burial at sea from a cruise ship and this fit the bill. I'll be carrying it onto the ship in a specially decorated box that will be later used for the family's remembrances, but the actual ash-scattering will be done in this container. Thank you for the quick shipping too.

    I purchased the water-soluble bag for a burial at sea for my sister. The bag had no defects and was usable. We placed a small flower wreath on top of the bag when we released it in the water. The bag sank immediately and the wreath floated away leaving a trail of flower petals in its wake. The only surprise, which I guess was just my assumption from the picture, is I thought the bag would be opaque instead of clear. We just laid a cloth over it until the service started.

    While it remained intact it did not disperse the flowers or any ashes as previous reviews have stated. Could have been the strong currents at the time.

    The water-soluble biodegradable bag was perfect for our loved one's water burial. The bag was plenty large enough to easily transfer the cremains into it and included the tie. We smoothed the air out before tying up the bag. The weight sank it immediately when placed in the water, ensuring a peaceful and discreet farewell. We will definitely choose this environmentally-friendly option again for other family members who've requested a similar interment.

    I read the reviews before purchasing the bag and ordered an extra one as sometimes they might have a small hole. The one bag we used had no issues at all. I had read a review of attaching a floral arrangement and loved the idea. We attached a small bouquet of carnations and tied them together with the bag. The bag sank into the water immediately taking the flowers beneath the water with the cremains. when the bag dissolved the flowers came back up to the water's surface leading the trail of the cremains behind it so we knew it worked. We dropped the bag from a bridge into the river and it was like watching a loved one being carried away down the river. We loved the experience and highly recommend releasing cremains in a river. Highly recommend the bags.
