I’ve tried all kinds of different bags and these are my absolute favorite. I originally received a set of bags from Baggu about 5-7 years ago and they quickly became my go to. Super strong, I can load these bags up with stuff without worrying. Easy to clean and store away. Just purchased a set of 3 large bags and another matching set of the smaller size bags. Love them!!!!I’ve had Baggu bags for years and they are still in great condition despite all the spills and gunk that accumulated on them over time (easily washable though so I only have minor stains on my old ones). These bags are awesome! I bought them as a gift for my younger sibling and have received great feedback on how handy they are. I love the witty designs too!I am obsessed with these bags. They are heavy duty, high quality fabric, and can hold SO MUCH. They also can fold down into small little squares for easy storage. I keep about 10 of these in my car at all times so that I can use them at the grocery store.These are great. Love they each have a little house bag they fold up in. Keep one in my purse and one in my car so I never need to buy a bag.I use these for a lot of things, grocery shopping, carrying things to and from work, even for overnight trips. I’ve had one for over a year and it is in great condition, so it held up really well. I have given them as gifts and everyone loves them.I've bought my fair share of reusable/packable shopping bags, and these are by far my favorite ... like I'm not even sure why the non-Baggu bags are still in my purse, because I never use them unless I have to. Why are these so great?1) They're durable (so far, at least). I purchased my first one on vacation 6 months ago, and I've used it regularly (twice a week?) since then. Unlike my other reusable bags, this one has no holes and isn't stretched out. The fabric feels softer and more worn than my newer bags, but it's still holding up like a champ.2) They have big handles. I can slip this over my shoulder comfortably. My other bags have much smaller handles and have to be held in your hand, which isn't always comfortable or convenient.3) They're BRIGHT. My purse is a big black hole of stuff, and these bags are like a bright beacon of hope screaming "I'm here! You found me! You're not without a bag!" One of my other reusable bags is black, and it takes forever to find it in the depths of my purse. Note that I do agree with one of the other reviewers that these are much brighter in person than they seem in the pictures. I got these as gifts for basically everyone on my Christmas list, and even the ones that seem like they'd be dull were very bright. The mint stripe bag has a bright green stripe, and the "orchid" is more like "bright fuchsia." Unless you're buying the black bag, you should probably expect to see something in the neon spectrum show up at your door.4) They're easy to fold. You aren't going to want to use your reusable bag if it's a pain to fold back up. Thankfully, there's no complicated bag origami with these bags -- fold it in quarters parallel to the handles, then fold the quartered bag into thirds (the handles are as long as 1/3 of your quartered bag), then fold the remaining shape in half and stuff it in the bag. 4-3-2-pouch.5) They fold up small -- I keep two in my purse, and might add a third someday. The 5x5 pouch might seem big, but they squash down to maybe 3/8" thick, so they fit pretty much anywhere. If they fold up small, you're more likely to have them with you -- unlike those big reusable grocery bags that you have in your car and always forget to bring inside.You'll be patting yourself on the back for this purchase the first time you go to the store for three things, tell yourself you don't need a cart because you only need three things, and then wind up juggling 12 items in the checkout line. Instead of juggling at items 4 and beyond, just whip this bag out of your pocket or purse and shop away! It's also pretty amazing how many unanticipated plastic bags you can avoid when you have one of these handy. Getting snacks at the gas station? Need cold medicine at the drug store? Buying a new shirt at the mall? Getting souvenirs on vacation? You probably didn't think to grab the reusable bags out of your car, but you can still help kick the disposable bag habit if you've got a Baggu on you.**UPDATE DECEMBER 2015** (still at 5 stars)My original Baggu is still going strong after almost a year and a half, and I've added four more to the collection. I was super bummed when I lost not one, but TWO of the stuff sacks within a month. I e-mailed Baggu to ask about purchasing replacements, and they promptly shipped out new stuff sacks at no charge. It made my day, and I will continue recommending these to everyone.**UPDATE NOVEMBER 2017** (why is 6 stars not an option?)My original Baggu is STILL going strong, two and a half years after I bought it. I think it might have one or two tiny holes in it, but it's still in much better shape than any of my other reusable bags, which haven't been used in ages. Of course, I've developed a bit of a Baggu problem since then, and the collection has expanded enough that the wear and tear is well-distributed between my many Baggus. I did manage to tear a hole in my cactus Baggu when I put something sharp in it, but I just patched it up with some Gear Tape and it's been fine ever since.It may sound silly, but these bags are probably one of the best things I've ever bought for myself.I have been using these bags for over 5 years and they are still going strongEs muy cómoda para cargar en la carteraI always have 2 of these Baggu bags in my handbag. They are brilliant and so much better than imitations ( which I once bought by mistake). I say "once" as if I have needed to buy loads and loads - I haven't they will last a very long time, are easy to get back into the pouch and take up no room in your handbag. The quality is excellent, and a huge choice of patterns ( though I prefer just one colour myself), but, you know, each to his own and all that. I know it sounds cliche but I would not use any other make. These are the best.I now own seven BAGGU Standard bags in different colours, and I'm very impressed with their simple streamlined design, high quality, durability and versatility. The bags are light and very compact when folded in their storage pouch, but fit a huge amount of groceries and other items when in use. Their wide and good length handles make them very comfortable to carry both in hand and on shoulder, and the position of the handles is such that when on your shoulder the bag doesn't stay on the side of your body weighing you down like tote bags tend to do, but instead stays on your back which is far more comfortable. The bags are made of ripstop nylon which is a light but very sturdy and durable material. You can truly appreciate BAGGU bags only after you have used them. Highly recommended!They are strong and light and hold so much. Perfect to pop into a handbag for shopping on the go. I have loads as the family keepm’acquirung’ them.This was a replacement for the bag my daughter borrowed and didn’t return. Excellent quality and folds up small. Holds a large amount of shopping, maybe two carrier bags worth. Can be carried in the shoulder quite comfortably with the weight well distributed due to the wide handles. Highly recommended.An excellent, high capacity shopping bag that packs down to nothing. The secret is the use of ripstop nylon which has high strength for low weight. It's used extensively for things like tent flysheets and technical outdoor clothing and will last a long time even with daily use.
