5.0 out of 5 stars
Usage Tips...durable, smart, eco-friendlier option,

This review is from: flip and tumble 5-Pack Reusable Produce Bags (Kitchen)
We have had these bags for over a year. We use them every week when we go food shopping, for all sorts of produce, as well as nuts and other items from the bulk aisle.
We use them to transport from store/market to home and then for carrying nuts around during the day for snacking. They have been proven as very durable. We use other products for storing produce, which are specifically made for that purpose. Our store has a scale in the aisle which creates a label. We print the label and then stick it onto the cord (on top of the other labels) - {another option would be to use an index card with previous trips' labels stuck on it, most recent on top, and binder- clipped to the bag/cord} - for scanning at the cashier. This way, it's easy for them to scan and we can remove it (cut labels off cord, or remove binder clip) for washing. These are great bags and much better (eco-friendlier and integrated cord, so no twisties) than using a new plastic bag (or reusing plastic roll-dispensed bags, which are difficult to wash/dry). If I didn't have a mesh bag already for toiletries when I travel, or small items when I go to the beach/pool, I would certainly use one of these. In the future, however, I will probably choose an organic cotton bag for produce, as we are trying to reduce the amount of newly-purchased oil-based products in our home, whenever possible. This is not the fault of the bag, so, for what it is advertised to be, it gets 5 stars. I rely on reviews here at Amazon to help me make informed buying choices. I hope this review has helped you in the same manner. If you voted this as helpful, I Thank You! :)

Get asked about these bags all the time.,

This review is from: flip and tumble 5-Pack Reusable Produce Bags (Kitchen)
I have been using these bags for a few months and get asked all the time where I purchased them. I have been taking my own reusable grocery bags for a while and always felt bad about still using plastic for produce. They are holding up well so far and wash well. You can see through the bags, so the grocer can see the tags easily when making your purchase. The last time I was at the local natural grocer, the checker asked again where I got them and wrote the name down. They may want to carry them in the store, since they get asked for something like this often. By the way, the Flip & Tumble Reusable Tote - Brown grocery bags are great, too. I always have one in my bag so that I am not often left without a reusable bag.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Limited usability,

This review is from: flip and tumble 5-Pack Reusable Produce Bags (Kitchen)
When I first got these I loved them, and I just about ordered a few more packages right away. They are a nice, high quality, soft mesh material that seems very durable. You can see through them fairly well (like, you can tell what's inside, but reading numbers on a produce sticker would be tricky. I got multiple people raving about them at my Farmers' Market. Problem is, some produce gets soft and/or shrivelled up when stored in the fridge in these. Works fine so far for storing apples in the fridge. But carrots and snap peas started getting soft after a few days, and grapes got shriveled up (I am comparing to a plain plastic bag). If you know you are going to be using the produce within a day or two then they'd be fine. I will still use them for tomatoes, stone fruit, and other produce that will get left at room temp once I get it home. Could also work well for some dry goods. Also, the drawstring is fairly thin, so it works very well for cinching up the bag, but you can't really rely on the drawstring to be used as a handle (like you would with a plastic bag or nylon sack). I still might purchase more, because for the right purposes these are nice bags.
