Bag Washer: Does It Really Make Cleaning Reusable Bags Easier?
I have been attempting to maintain cleanliness and sanitation in my reusable bags, in particular the grocery bags, lunch bags and produce bags that are used regularly. When I was trying to find the better ways of cleaning, I discovered such a product like bag washer. It is supposed to aid in the better washing of bags as well as safeguarding their shape and material but I doubt whether it is necessary.
Has you ever had a bag washer at home? I wonder how effective it is when compared to the traditional washing techniques such as hand washing or placing bags in the washing machine. Does a bag washer prevent wear and tear more so on insulated or structured bags?
I also wonder about hygiene. Is a bag washer effective in removing odor, stains, and bacteria especially on food carrying bags? Does it have certain bag types that it is best used with like cloth totes, reusable produce bags, or reusable plastic storage bags?
The other consideration that I make is convenience. Does using a bag washer save time or water or does it provide an additional step to the cleaning process? In case you have tried one I would be very glad to know your experience, whether it was good or bad, and what kind of brand you like.
