Potato & Onion Sprout-Free Vegetable Storage Bags,Potato Storage Container

I think the way you use these will definitely affect your perception of how "good" they are. I was looking for something to keep my potatoes and onions "fresher" and more handy than a plastic bag from the grocery. I really hate throwing spuds in the back of a cabinet or drawer and then discovering one or more when the smell alerts you to the problem. The other "real" issue for me was not only sprouting, but potatoes that turn green. For those who care, potatoes turn green when exposed to light. This can occur when they are still in the ground or after being marketed and you have them at home. This is important (to me anyway...) because green potatoes are somewhat poisonous. That is to say that a potato that is turning green indicates the presence of solanine which is a systemic poison. If you doubt what I say... look it up. These bags because of their dark interior form a sort of "blackout" condition inside the bag. This will keep the formation of solanine to a minimum as long as the potatoes are not already green when they go into the bag. So, how do the bags work.?? Well, pretty good. I am certainly happy with my results. I have noticed NO green potatoes since I started using these bags about two months ago. Sprouting seems to be reduced too, although potatoes will still sprout in the dark, just like they do in the ground. Potatoes need to be kept cool, dry, and dark. These bags will certainly help with that process. In addition, the bags are quite attractive and do not offend me when seen laying about on the counter or an open shelf or a hanging basket. The bag for onions seems to work well too. Truthfully, if you allow any root vegetable to lay around for weeks at a time, the chances are there will be some spoilage. These bags won't keep me from being stupid, but they do offer a clean and light free way to store my spuds and onions. I am very pleased. Five stars for a good storage bag that seems to function as designed. Perfect..?? No, but then nothing ever is...

Love the draw string and small zipper opening to illuminate light. I find my potatoes & onions stay fresher longer.

These are great for anyone who doesn't eat very many potatoes or onions. Our onions have been crispy and potatoes are sprouting much slower. Although as a plant based family of 3, we find that these bags are far too small for our use. They hold about 6 sweet potatoes... 2 days worth for us. Not a great size for long term storage but they are nice for a plastic-free storage option. The zipper on the bottom is fantastic and the design is adorable decoration. Quality of fabric and thread is very durable, we drag these around the kitchen with little delicacy and they have survived thus far. These would be PERFECT if they were triple the size.

Honestly, I thought this was a silly ideal when my wife first got these bags, both potato and onion. But, like always she taught me something new. The bags do a great job of containing the vegetables and preserving them as well. Both the potatoes and onions have a bad habit of sprouting in our basement where we store them, even covered and in a cool dark place. These seem to work, as we have not had that problem since there use. They also look very nice and keep things organized. Great call.

I have been looking for a storage option for onions and potatoes for a while, growing up we had wooden bins with hinged lids to keep these in but I was having trouble finding one of those in my price range that were small enough for my kitchen space. I found these and the price point was so good I thought I’d give them a try and I’m so glad I did! I keep them under the cabinet to keep them cool and so far I’ve had great success with my potato and onion not “spouting”. I love that you can access them from the top opening but also there is a zippered opening on the side if you’re like me and keep your yellow and purple onions together and you don’t want to dig around looojng for the right one. So far the bags seem very sturdy I’ve had no issues with the zippers on the side or any of the seems splitting.

These are deceptive. It says 10lb capacity but that is the total capacity for both bags. They don’t each hold that much.

Cute bags. Color is a little dull, I think I expected them to be white but they have a grayish hue to them. They serve their purpose so far. Bags also have zippers on the side with a small opening, assuming for ventilation. Not quite sure on how they're supposed to be used ventilation wise but I did notice my potatoes didn't sprout. Instructions would be helpful.

These did not work for me. The potatoes and onions got rotten. Not a great buy.

great bags they work well

I've had these bags for 8 months and zero complaints. Potatoes and onions remain fresh for a longer period of time. Less waste! They hang on one side of my kitchen cabinets so act as fun decoration and are functional for holding food out of sight. Win win! Great quality fabric and put together well.

L'articolo corrisponde alla descrizione del venditore ed è arrivato puntualmente. Sicuramente è pensato per un utilizzo domestico e rispetta questo criterio. Leggendo alcune recensioni ho temuto che la misura fosse insufficiente e invece contiene una rete di patate da 3 kg. La cerniera laterale è comodissima. Il sacchetto è anche esteticamente carino. Non ho ancora utilizzato quello per le cipolle, che è ugualmente capiente.

The bags were a little bit smaller than I had expected, at least the potato one was, but they still easily hold more than 3kg which is plenty. The best thing about them is the zip as it allows you to top up the bags with fresh produce whilst using the older items first via the zip. I have some cheaper bags which don't have the zips and to be honest it is worth the extra cost to have them.

Bags were not too big, and the draw strings to close the bag very stiff, so much so that one seam parted when trying to close the bag.
