Not unlike other plastic containers that are purchased from SC Johnson, Glad, and Tupperware the zip-top style bag may have some water drops on the bags when the dishwasher cycle is complete. If that happens you can leave the BagWasher with the bag on it, in the dishwasher to dry. Or of course, you can put the BagWasher system on the counter to dry. It is rare that this would have to happen.
How much space does it take up in the dishwasher?
Washing your zip-top bags in the dishwasher is fast easy and reduces water consumption. If you use the gallon BagWasher that will take up 4 dishwasher prongs or 9 inches wide x 5 inches deep.

The Gallon size takes up about a 2-plate area and the Quart size takes up about 1 plate size.
Does washing the zip top bag in the dishwasher use more water than washing them by hand?
By washing your zip top bags in the dishwasher, you will be using less water than if you wash them by hand.

Does the BagWasher fit a Silicone style bag?
While silicone bags are a wonderful option for food storage millions of Americans still use the zip-top style plastic bags for freezing foods and are still considered the easiest least expensive go-to option for food storage. Americans are so accustomed to grabbing a box of zip-top bags at the store that it’s almost second nature. Millions of Americans use that plastic bag one time and throw that bag into the trash, whereas many states do not even recycle that bag at the curbside recycle center. Recycling those zip-top bags usually requires a separate company or drop-off place to actually recycle that type of plastic bag. Reusing those bags is what is suggested by SC Johnson and is clearly stated on the box of that zip-loc bag. Wash, reuse wash, and reuse, again and again. Reduce plastic waste one bag at a time.
