buy Woolworths red potatoes pretty often because they’re one of those reliable basics you always need at home. First impression is usually good — they look clean, smooth, and ready to use straight out of the bag.

I like these red potatoes. you get 2kg in a pack and they are washed and last long in the fridge. great for cooking and easy to peel. it’s Australian grown and taste good. the bag is recyclable and I like the woolies brand. I get this on sale so it’s value for money

Glsd that these potatoes are grown in Australia but the markup woolworths puts on these is ridiculous. Especially when it’s well known they rip off the farmer.

these were perfect potato’s to make potato salad with, they have the right creamy texture. I’m sure they’d be great as mashed potato too

The product was overall good and easy to use. It met my expectations and worked as described. The quality was decent, and it was simple to understand and enjoy. There were a few small things that could be improved, but nothing major. Overall, it was a positive experience and I would consider using or buying it again.

Lovely red potatoes that come pre washed. Easy to peel and cook in the microwave. Come out perfect each time, just add butter and a nice steak.

The potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, perfectly seasoned and super comforting. They weren’t greasy at all and paired really well with the main dish. Portion size was generous too. I’d definitely order them again.

These red potatoes have a very affordable price range : eight dollars for a two kilo bag. This is quite a bargain as some potatoes can be very costly.

Extrodinarily overpriced given how little Woolies pay our farmers. The potatoes themselves are good quality.

Potatoes are versatile, comforting, and satisfying. They can be boiled, mashed, roasted, or fried, and they take on flavors really well. I love how they can be a side dish, a main ingredient, or even a snack. Simple, hearty, and always delicious, potatoes are a staple in many cuisines around the world.

👍 Positives 1. Convenience / prewashed • Being “washed,” they require less prep (less scrubbing) before cooking. • Many users mention that they skip peeling (or do minimal cleaning) and use them directly.  • Good size and uniform shape for roasting, stewing, or chopping.  2. Versatility in cooking • Reviewers report success using them in a wide range of dishes: roasting, mashing, stews, soups, etc.  • They hold shape well (i.e. don’t turn to mush easily) and absorb flavours.  3. Favourable nutritional profile (for a potato) • Per 100 g: ~ 246 kJ (~59-70 kcal) energy.  • Low in fat; modest protein (~2.3 g / 100 g)  • Low sodium (~ 5-6 mg / 100 g)  4. Australian grown / local sourcing • The product page states “Grown in Australia.”  • Local sourcing generally means fresher supply and shorter transport distance, which can help quality. 5. Good user ratings / positive reviews • On the “bunch” reviews page, the product has an average rating of ~4.73 (out of 5) from 320 reviews.  • Many users compliment the taste, texture, and reliability.  ⸻ 👎 Negatives / Caveats 1. Nutrition / carbohydrate load • Although “just a potato,” it is still a starchy vegetable — high in carbs. For people watching their carbohydrate intake, portion control matters. • Low in fibre (unless you eat the skin) compared to whole grains or legumes. 2. Shelf life / storage issues • As with most potatoes, they can sprout, go soft, or develop green patches over time. • Must be stored in cool, dark, ventilated conditions to reduce spoilage. 3. Inconsistent sizing / quality • Some users mention that occasionally there are potatoes in the bag that are too small / too large / slightly blemished. (As is common with bulk vegetables). • Though most feedback is positive, there may be occasional sub-par tubers (soft spots, internal flaws). 4. Reduced “wash” meaning less protective skin • The washing process removes soil and may remove some of the natural protective layer on the skin, making them more vulnerable to damage, bruising, or quicker spoilage. • The skin may be thinner / more delicate, so peeling or scuffing is more likely during handling. 5. Cost / value vs loose potatoes • Packaged / branded versions can cost more (on “per kg” basis) than buying loose red potatoes. • The convenience comes at a price premium. 6. Lack of full nutrition disclosure on product page • Woolworths’ product page does not list full nutritional values (many “–” or blanks) for the red washed potatoes.  • This means customers relying solely on that page may not have all the info (though external nutrition sites fill gaps

Red potatoes contain the highest levels of vitamins, minerals and healthy phytochemicals. I enjoy the firm texture and the taste of these potatoes. They are so versatile can be used for roasting mashing boiling steaming and soups. I also like that they don’t turn green but remember potatoes should always be stored in a dark area.

Love using these potatoes in a vegetable mash. Really versatile. Only con would be that they’re smaller than i would like (which means i need to peel more)

Great all rounder potato. I have mashed, roasted and boiled these and they have turned out perfect every time. I leave the skin on when roasting and they are delicious. They are a definite buy for me when they are on sale.

These are perfect Potatoes for basically anything you may want to do with them in the kitchen. Great for mashing, baking, boiling, scalloped potatoes, potato salad or potato bake. They are great with their skins on (and are washed and ready to go) but are also very easy to peel if you prefer. They have a great taste and texture. We have never had any issues with these at all and we always grab this variety when they are on special because they are really great quality.
