I've used them and had bad results.
Have to make sure all the buds are dried well, and don't overload the bag or else the buds will turn brown and taste like shite.
I just use paper bags and either jars or plastic bags which works well

For context I was using 2 (half pound) grove bags, it was my first proper grow in a while and I thought there was only about a lb or so there, so crammed it all into both the bags.

All up the weight was almost 2lbs. So my guess is the bags had no breathing room, so it couldn't regulate the moisture properly and the buds ended up spoiling from it.

If you haven't purchased any little hygrometers then I highly suggest you do, as drying and curing is easy to rush and ruin when you are getting back into growing or a new grower.
Having small hygrometers in the drying room and inside the jars/containers and grove bags is super helpful as it helps gauge whether the buds are too moist or too dry so you can act accordingly

I’ve used them and I rate them. You need to make sure your buds are dried properly or close to dry.
The bag’s breath and have tiny perforations in them so you don’t need to burp them like you would curing in jars

Only used em short term so can't really come to a conclusion on a good cure but I did like the lack of burping over the 3-4 weeks i used them. Went in at 65% and dropped down to 61% over a week without burping and held well.

Oddly everyone takes me weed more seriously if I swing em weed in a grove too. Always seem to swing me considerably more for it as its usually on a "swing us what you think its worth" type of scenario and the grove seems to seal the deal more than anything which is odd.

Love em. Gotta make sure you dry properly.
