What is this bag made of? If it has some kind of plastic lining, how do I know it's non-toxic?

I would not call the lining plastic. The inside of the bag has the same fabric as the outside with the exception of the bottom, but you have to put a cloth on the bottom of the bag before you place the pot inside. The underside of the cushion "lid" is also a solid blue fabric, different than the patterned fabric of the rest of the item, but I don't detect any plastic. I have used this many times now (more than when I first reviewed the product) and have placed steaming hot pots inside the bag an have not smelled any odor of plastic or anything. I have always, however, followed the direction of placing a dishtowel in the bottom of the Wonderbag before putting a hot pot inside. I would not call the lining plastic.

Hi - I am a member of the Wonderbag team. The US Wonderbag is made of is made with polyester fabric (30%), poly-cotton blend (70%) and is 100% insulated repurposed foam chips.

To me it seems like an insulated fabric on the inside. I have spilled beans in it when traveling and simply hand washed the bag and laid it out to dry. I did have the towel in the bottom, but it sloshed out the lid of the pot. It washed up great. I love the bag and use it often. I plan on giving it to my sisters for Christmas.

They seem to be a kind of mix of nylon and cotton. They are durable, whatever the material is. My children have used and re-used their bags since we bought them for a birthday party in October.

The inside of the bag is silver, it's insulated so the material looks something like foil but it has a different feel, I'm not sure exactly what material it is

The bag is plastic coated canvas and is 12" long (good size).... a nice sturdy bag.

The bag does not state it's lead or PVC -free. So if I was to guess, I would assume these smelly plastic bugs "made in China " do have these harmful chemicals.

I don't know what they are made of, but it is not a shiny plastic. More like a thin man-made fabric; most-likely breathable. I wouldn't check it with an airline, but it works fine for my boys to use for the use I have which is mainly storage and local travel.

It is a heavy canvas type material with a rubberized outer coating. It is weather resistant. It does not zip closed but has heavy duty locking clips to hold it together. It is a good bag.

It appears to be all steel. I do not see any plastic parts. However, I will say that when my husband used it in his cosmetic bag (long travels) there was some leakage.

It's has a waterproof lining. Don't know what it's made if but it's like plastic but not hot

It's a nice sturdy kind of nylon-like man made fabric, maybe some kind of polyester. It's the nicest tote bag I have, and I have a lot of tote bags. I love it.

It is made of polyester. My wife has had it over a year and it still looks very nice. I would recommend this bag.

Its a nylon bag. Pretty sturdy, more than you would expect. I haven't used it much at all but I would guess it would last as long as you don't expect too much.

I had the same concern when I made my purchase. I actually purchase this bag and another bag to see which one I preferred. This bag does look and feel like plastic. However, I did not find that a plastic feel meant it was lower quality. The other bag was a canvas material, but this bag's construction seemed better suited for the task. I ultimately returned the canvas bag. I am completely satisfied with my purchase even with the plastic look. Hope this helps.

Hi RR, The lining is TR (not sure what that is, except that it's anti-static) and smooth, just not satiny-smooth like some nylon. The bag is comfortable, lightweight, and has held up fine. I'd probably get it again.

hi i unfolded the bottom of the back to take a look. there is one layer of a white sticky type material next to the paper. says nothing on the bag about the ply. in my mind it would seem that the white lining is such that dust would be collected very well.

Hello Lauren....you may need to ask these questions to the company...as there is no information about that on the bag
