Are these bags too bulky to machine wash?

Yes they would be to big to wash in a at home machine. However, the large commercial size washers at the laundry mat would be able to handle this bag.

They are individually about the size of a thinner full sized comforter, I'd say. So if your machine can handle that, you should be fine.

I haven't machine washed mine but I would say yes, though air dry seems logical given the material.

I use them directly out of the bag. I have never washed them and they are good.

I don't know. Since they sort of, but not exactly, resemble many of my grocery tote bags, I'd do what I do with those: hand wash them. But truth be told, these will be in a drawer, in which you tuck clean socks and underwear, so I'm guessing, washing them will be a spring cleaning thing once a year. Meanwhile, I have to say, they make the drawers look great! I've never been so organized.

well, I think yes, the bags are washable, they are very resistant and the material is very good .

They are really heavy. You can wash it, but I wouldn't do it in your home machine, I would take it to a laundromat and do it in one of the "industrial size" machines

Oh you can definitely wash them in the machine but I recommend drying on a low heat to avoid shrinking them. I hand wash mine most the time but that's just my preference. :)

Two bags will zip together. I have used them zipped together. Probably machine washable but would take a larger than normal washer. I have never needed to wash any of mine.

Well, of course. They want to sell more bags! I wash mine out with hot, soapy water, open them up and let them dry out thoroughly before putting them away. I resorted to this because I couldn't find any at the grocery store.

I haven't washed mine yet, but I would probably throw them in on a very delicate load. The fabric would hold up. My only concern would be the seems.

I haven't had to wash mine yet, but I would think it would be a good idea to place them in a zippered net bag to contain them while they are in the washer and dryer.

I find them fairly quick to dry. I haven't hand washed though, only machine. They do come virtually dry from the machine so if you have a warmish spot to put them overnight I think they would be fine. I would test them at home first, and take two pairs so you can rotate if they are still damp.

They are 'floppy'; Not sure of your preference, but these bags RULE! I got some others previous to these but wasn't happy - my search ended when I got these!

Not really. They have a little support in the bottom and there is a little loop on the top of the bag so the person bagging your groceries can hook it on their plastic grocery bag frame. That's what they usually do. I still use and like these bags after about a year and a half. I have washed them several times and they are as good as new. I replaced the support in the bottom but I really think they were a great value for the money. Hope this helps!

Yes, but only by hand - instruction tag on inside of bag says "Do Not Wash - Wipe Off." I just use a very damp cloth. They cannot be put in a washing machine! However if bad stains, I can give detailed instructions on how to do this if needed. The by hand method works fine for me so far.

The bags have worked out very well for me and I've never had to wash them. The labels say, however, to hand wash them.

I just wash the bags but I don't recommend drying them because they seem to wrinkle up a lot and maybe shrink. These really are great bags! We use them all the time!
