Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of flip and tumble 5-Pack Reusable Produce Bags
Customer Review: Pretty good for their purpose.
Summary: 4 Stars
For the price and the purpose of these bags, they are pretty good! These could be easily sewn at home, but for the price and convenience, I'll sew up another project another day. :) They are lightweight, but so far, the stitch and mesh have held up very well to heavy produce. The size is perfect for a family to hold the amount of produce one would typically get for a family in a week. Of course, considerably larger produce will not fit in this bag, but neither does it fit in most grocery store plastic bags. These easily compact down to manageable storage in a purse. Being able to wash the produce directly in the bag is also a plus with the mesh. I can then clean the mesh and hang to dry for my next shopping trip. Easy-peezy. But they are also easily cleaned with towels in my washer, then hung to dry. (Mesh dries quickly.) I enjoy the color coded tags for personal reasons of my own mind-organizing needs. The drawstring is lightweight, which makes it easy to close and open. Some of the heavy duty drawstrings are so heavy duty, opening and closing makes it more difficult. Therefore, I prefer the lightweight drawstring on these bags for their purpose.
The only con is that it is hard to read labels through the mesh, even though the description says it's easy to see through. Some others have indicated they did not have this problem, but I'm having a hard time seeing how that's true. I can easily see what is in the bag and know what it is, but you can't see the produce numbers through the bag. Going to a farmers market, this usually isn't much of a problem, but a grocery store, it may be, depending on where you shop and the cashier you get. :) However, with the lightweight drawstring, it should be easy to open and close the bag to get the numbers, when needed. Hardly a problem, in my opinion, but it's worth noting.
That small con aside, the only other issue with these bags would be if someone wanted to avoid polyester. I see another review that opposed such material, but it is clearly stated in the description these are made from polyester. If that is a problem for you, these are not the bags you want. Personally, a reusable bag is a reusable bag to me. It surely beats using throw-away plastic/paper at the grocery store/farmers market.
It also does not state in the description (not at this time, that is) that it is made in China. Personally, this does not deter me entirely, but for someone else, it may be a crucial piece of information they wish they had known before purchasing. However, their website indicates it is ethically made in China.
Another person indicated some goods going bad early in these bags. It's NOT a function of the bag, as it is a function of the produce. You must do research and understand that produce has its preferences for storage. A little research into the produce you eat will tell you what you should do with your produce once you get it home. :)
Overall, a great product and would highly recommend.
