Simply Green Solutions - Reusable Grocery Bags, Durable Large Tote Bags, Shopping Bags for Groceries, Utility Tote, Reusable Gift Bags With Handles, 14 x 16.5 x 6, Pack of 10, Black

I ordered these bags after finding out that our new favorite grocery store did not provide any bags.(My husband does most of the shopping, so I have never even been in that store, and was not awarethat was where all of my plastic bags were disappearing to!)I got a nice bright color so it would be easy to see if someone "lifted" them from our cart.The bags are actually nicer than I had expected. They are fairly sturdy, and have a snap closure,which is great so groceries don't go rolling around in the back of the truck.They are deeper than they are wide, which could be annoying to some. I liked it, because it keeps thingsin better. The snap closure, while plastic, seems sturdy as well.I snitched two of the bags, and am using them to hold my fabric batting for sewing! They are so niceand deep, it made it a great way to keep the batting together. I also have an additional one for my projectbag. Love them!I would not hesitate to purchase them again, and probably do an additional color for my own use.

Pros: (and pros of reusable bags in general)-Cheap yet durable! You get 10 bags compared to other reusable bags which only provide 1-6. Leave some in the car, house, wherever you may need it-Material feels pretty sturdy. Definitely stronger than paper/plastic it's supposed to replace-Handles are strongly stitched to the bag. The handles sticks about 6-7 inches from the edge of the bag-Rectangle bottom to emulate paper bags. Makes bagging easy, no need to learn new bagging methods with odd shaped reusable bags-Has a button at the top center to semi seal the bag with less items-Can repurpose bags for other uses. I use it as a tool bag, to carry my clothes, etc. Doesn't need to be used just for grocery, be creative!-Bags are washable. Y'know, to get rid of the dirty clothes smell? >.>-Good to know that they're made of recycled material for those who are environmentally consciousCons:-The bag is about 5 inches off the ground when I hold it normally. The bag will hit the stairs or curb unless I lift the bag higher. It's an annoyance at most. Maybe I should grow taller >.>-Can't roll them up into compact balls. I can still roll/fold them up though

I just got these bags over the weekend and have had a couple opportunities to use them. They definitely fit a surprising amount of groceries, despite being quite narrow. THe material is soft and comfortable to carry. As others have stated, the handles are not as long as pictured, but I think they are just fine. I can carry the whole bag without it hitting the ground, so they are a perfect length. The bags are strong, I didn't feel like they were cheaply made or weak while using them today. It may sound strange, but I enjoy having a matching set of bags - so getting a set of 10 for under $15 is a great find if you ask me! 10 is way more than enough bags, so my boyfriend and I are each keeping a couple in our cars just in case. I'm excited to stop using plastic bags, and this is a great addition to our household. (My only regret is ordering them in black! I love all the color options!) I would definitely highly recommend these bags!

What I like:- Solid plain color - the black bags I choose look simple and good, have no logos, and do not show dirt.- Standard lightweight but sturdy fabric - I load these up with milk, canned food, etc. They might not hold up to being completely full of heavy cans, but neither will my shoulders. I sort things between a couple of bags to distribute the weight anyway, but have not run into any issues with sturdiness.- Size - about the size of a standard paper grocery bag. At most I need two of these.- After years of using store brand bags, which were fine, I was ready for a more "grown up" option. This fits the bill perfectly. I keep a few in the back seat of the car, they look neat and "serious" as opposed to random store bags from Target, Giant, Michaels, etc. When I need a bag to take things to work, these again feel grown up compared to random store reuseable bags.

I just purchased my 5th set!!!(Nothing to do with the product, People see them and sometimes they take them.)Having said that. They aren't perfect examples. Every order I've received has at least 1 side seam only sewn half way. My last order had 2 like that. SO WHAT! WHO CARES! The material is sturdy and last forever! I've had people ask where I got them & I tell them and the price. Most have commented they planned to order them when they got home. 1 woman had me help her right then on her phone. Good produce, good value!I don't soft soap my product reviews. I review at Y & W as well. People read my reviews & laugh.

I bought these bags a a gift for my best friend.I found these bags to be much better quality than what I expected from the price.The snap closure is also a great addition and very handy. Nobody likes when your groceries go flying out the bags!They are a nice size too - some grocery bags are so small that you land up having to take a million of them with you. These are deep and big so you can get a lot in them and maybe even get a nice arm workout if the canned goods are on sale LOLThe only thing that I would change on these bags is to make the handles longer so you can sling them over your arm like a purse. Overall, these bags were so great that I'm thinking of getting a bunch for myself and update my collection of old, well used and mis-matched grocery bags.
