Is there such thing as a machine-washable lunchbag?

I do wash the ones we have in the washing machine once a week, but they are old ones and I am not bothered if they fall apart (which they are!)

I find without going in the washing maschine they get quite grotty in the seams. If I don't find one can anyone recommend a decent lunchbox that has sturdy clips!

Stick my dd's in the dishwasher once in a while. Seems OK. Just a standard jobbie from Woolies. Pink with a cat pic on it, you know the sort of thing.

I regularly wash dd's ordinary soft lunchbag in the machine regularly. It's from ASDA I think - one of those pink jobbies with a photo of a baby kitten on.

I have soft lunch boxes for mine after DS1 dropped his plastic box and it broke. They have survived in the washing machine fine.

My dds use a bag from millets and they have been washed 3x a week for about 2 years and they are still in fine condition. Small rucksack rather than lunchbox tho..

yes, I shove ours in the dishwasher. Top shelf, open with the fabric bit on the outside. Works fine.
