I purchased both large and small produce bags and I absolutely love them! They are just the right size and are very durable. I was afraid the that the checkers at the registers would have a hard time seeing the produce in the bags, but it has not been a problem. I have recommended buying these bags to all my friends!

An excellent bag. Holds plenty of produce. The clerk can see what's in it, so punching the code is easy. Also washes well.

These are a winner! Once we learned about the mostly plastic garbage heap the size of 2 states of Texas in the Pacific Ocean, we set a goal of plastic-free house...at least as far as bags and unneccessary containers. Produce bags were the hardest to give up, but, thanks to these see-through mesh bags, we are almost there.

These cotton net bags are great. Obviously, they are great for reducing the waste and pollution of throw away plastic produce bags at the market. Then, of course, there is the \"cool\" factor when I whip them out at the store, not to mention the great feeling of moral superiority they give you. ;) I have also found many other uses for them, such as simplifying my travel by keeping various pieces of clothing secure in my bag and organized in hotel drawers. Also, tossing a few pairs of socks in a bag and laundering as a group means no lost socks!

These confuse the checkers at my grocery store a bit, but to me it's worth the effort they make to see what's in the bag. I hate those plastic produce bags! My husband is reluctant to use them because he feels they add more weight on the grocery scale. He tries to sneak plastic bagged items into the cart. Maybe a bit looser weave would make it more pleasing to the checkers and my man! Overall, they are worth the price.

Once again, the quality is fantastic! The also hold a lot, though they shrink up quite a bit in the wash...the venders at the farmer's market have been very impressed, at the tiny ethnic grocery they're a little more mystified. My only complaint is that it's difficult/impossible to tell what's inside them, the netting isn't very see-through.

I love these little suckers! They're great for storage as well as shopping. I live in a smart, but rather "non-green," small town. Belive it or not for two years I was the ONLY shopper to use my own totes in the local stores. However, I was happy to endure stares and flustered baggers in hopes of planting the seed. It's working! So stand up, be brave and set an example. Flaunt those reusable bags!

I like the feel of the bags and their ease of use. I appreciate being able to eliminate the plastic bags at the co-op and other natural food stores. I even take them to the farmers' markets! I have washed them twice following the instructions explicitly and they have shrunk about 40%. That has been the only disappointment.

Well made and great quality. They are heavy so they add extra weight to my grocery bill if the produce is priced by weight. I use them for items that are not sold by weight.

I have other produce bags that are similar, so I knew I would love these…and I do! They are easy to use and carry with me. They are durable and I like the natural look. I will buy more!

I use these bags on a daily basis. I not only take the bags to the grocery store, I also use them to carry fruits and vegetables in my lunches. They are strong, wash up beautifully in the laundry, and take a lot of wear and tear. I have now started to buy them as gifts for my friends - on Valentine's Day I gave candy AND reusable bags to my friends at work!

I reviewed these shortly after buying them in June 2008. They have been through many washings and are still going strong. I have learned I can wash these along with my dish towels on a normal setting in warm water. I line dry them though. They do add tare weight to your purchase but many store are giving credit for using your own bags, both large and small. I recommend these highly and would buy them again without a second thought.

Nice looking and easy to use. However, they do add some weight to the produce scale and the checkers tend to be confused when I ask them to subtract.

I put onions and garlic in these bags and hang them from wrought iron hooks on my pantry door frame. I like the old style of decorating, warm and cozy, and these bags and few other I bought here do precisely that.
