These bags work well, but they definitely shrunk after putting them in the washing machine. I would also recommend putting them in a laundry bag when cleaning them because after the first wash some of the bags started having loose threads. It would be worth it to hand wash these bags. Nonetheless, they are a great alternative to plastic produce bags and I enjoy using them.

I like these produce bags and they are nice for replacing the plastic baggies at the store. They feel nice and I like the mesh and the drawstring. My only complaint is the size; I don’t really think they hold as much produce as it looks like in the picture, but the specifications are on the web site so it’s not really too much of an issue. At any rate I would recommend purchasing if you want to swap out for the plastic bags.
