Are these bags machine washable? If so: any problems with them after washing? Thanks

The bags are machine washable. Washing instructions can be found on the sewn in label on each bag. Have not washed mine yet; I see no reason to do so unless something spills or leaks. Very pleased with these bags.

Yes they are washable, and I have not had any issues with them after washing. Just hang them to dry (overnight should be fine) and they are ready to use again!

I have not washed any yet, but they do seem sturdy enough! I would recommend air-dry based on the material

I have not washed mine yet, but since they are cloth, there is no reason not to wash them. I think that all reusable bags should be washed. These, I would use cold water to wash them to keep the color longer.

I have washed mine, in a garment bag in cold water in the machine - I don't ever handwash. The fabric appears to just be polyester - not a special fabric - so yes they seem to continue to protect just fine.

I wash these bags with our clothes and even though I usually let them air dry (they come out nearly dry anyway), they have been through the dryer on occasion. They wash up like new. I have had mine for years and they are like new.

So far, mine have held up. Have washed maybe 5 times or so. I haven't had them for very long.

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.

Yes they can be washed but I would line dry to prevent damaging them in the dryer. The draw string is nylon and would melt. Our family of 5 has used this for almost 2 years and the bags are in good condition save an undone seam from overstuffing and having kids drag downstairs to the basement.

I haven't tried to wash them yet but plan to put them in a mesh bag that I use for lingerie. My guess is that you could put them in loose on a gentle cycle for just a few minutes.

Yes they are machine washable. I wash them several times a week and they hold up very well.

No, they are not washable. Would shred up in a machine. You can wipe them with a damp cloth and vacuum, which is what we do. They are in okay but not great shape after two years.

Haven't needed to wash them yet. If you are concerned about spills, the material is very much like a water resistant back pack. So, I would assume with several washes there would be some degrading, but any minor spills could be simply wiped out. Also, the handles are sewn in, and solid, so there would be some noise in the washing machine and dryer if you went that route.

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

I have not had any problems with these bags at all. Everything stays in them, the strings have not gotten tangled with anything. My clothes come out clean and not stretched out. I love them. I am buying some for my daughter!!

Since I just purchased them I have not. But seeing that the the bags are used to keep silver from tarnishing,I would assume it is in the fabric and I would not wash it. Hope that helps. M

Not really. They are made out of the same material that cheap shopping bags are made of. They are machine washable though.

I machine wash and dry them, and mine have never bled. I have almost all the colors, some of them since 2010! Even convenience/pharmacy and liquor stores where I live don't offer (free) bags, so these get a lot of constant use.

I would not toss them in a washing machine but they are easily wiped down and quite sturdy. I have purchased 3, two of which were gifts. We all feel the same. These are great shopping bags. Loved them for the farmer's market or any food shopping.
