Made of lightweight waterproof polyester, these bags are available individually (on Envirosax's website) or as a series of 5 contained within a handy pouch.

I decided to order these for my mom. I explained her what the idea behind these bags was and asked her to use them and let me know her thoughts. After a couple weeks with them she loved them!

They are easy to carry as they can be folded (instructions on how to fold these are included in the package), so being the size of a small umbrella she can carry these in her bag and unfold when needed, practical idea. The handle is quite comfortable, unlike a regular plastic bag that you fill with heavy stuff; the handle will not deform and will always be comfortable to carry. What you can carry in 2 or 3 regular plastic bags you can fit into one of these (dimensions when unrolled are 19.5" x 16.5") and they have a weight capacity of 44 lbs.

They are stylish, reusable and eco friendly; I also learned from their web site that Envirosax donates a percentage of its sales to organizations dedicated to preserve the environment, so by getting these you do not only stop using plastic bags but are also contributing to help them.

The price is quite reasonable if you think about what you're getting, each bag can also be purchased separately for about $8.50 each, so it's up to you; a set of 5 is a better deal in my opinion for the price Amazon has.
