Amazon Basics Set of 2 Produce Food Saving Containers with Vented Lids, BPA Free Plastic - 2 Medium Short (2.6 Qt)

Edit: the price on the set including the XL box went up $13 since purchasing a few weeks ago. Not sure I'd buy at that price point, but who knows if that's permanent. Amazon product prices seem really swingy.So many reviews that I've read for fridge organizers seem to have very low requirements. I don't know if I'm just fussy or if I want to get the most out of my space but I went in to this purchase with a very clear list of must-haves: 1. the containers have to have straight sides and be rectangular. I don't want them to nest or be circular because taking up less space in storage isn't why I'm buying them. I want them to be in use and get the most of my fridge and cabinet space. 2. They have to stack nicely. Should be a given, but many don't, especially the nesting ones of different sizes. 3. It has to be a system that I can purchase more of without buying all of them for a reasonable price. This set does all of the above and I haven't found another set that does so as of May 6 2022. Also, there are a lot of reviewers out there who take points off for things that are clearly listed in the product description. I went into the knowing that I'd be hand washing and to make sure the vents clear any moisture when drying. If you can't be bothered to read about the thing you're buying, you don't get to complain about it.That said, they aren't perfect. First off the tops don't have any sort of sealing gasket. I knew this going in. So while this isn't a problem for regulating moisture, (the fit is fine for that) it's a problem because the lids come off easily especially when trying to move them one-handed. If you have a bin of apples it's not really a problem, but I hope your box of blueberries or cherry tomatoes doesn't spill. Easy enough to remedy, just use two hands or find a way to line the lid. Maybe Amazon could look into that or offer thin rubber strips with adhesive. Half star off.Secondly, the largest size is only available in a group pack. Not a deal breaker, but it would be nice to buy that solo. Half star off.Thirdly, and I'm not taking stars off for this, you have to go into this realizing it's going to be more work and the process of finding and rearranging space in your fridge is likely to be ongoing. I guess you don't have to wash produce first, but I do, so there's that. But I also wash the bins between restocking and when that happens the fridge kind of goes back to its wild state for a while. I guess what I'm saying is keep your expectations low and your problem solving high. I haven't really figured out how to best utilize these yet but they have fantastic potential and despite the negatives above I really think it's an excellent and well thought out product.

Fruits and vegetables lives and freshness are greatly extended in these boxes .. they ARE magic. Only thing I wish that they had a latch . The cover and box can come apart and go crashing onto the floor if you dont take great caution putting in or removing from the fridge. My next purchase will be one with a snapping latch.

While it's a nice sturdy container, the lid doesn't lock down... I failed to mention that to my family. Hubby picked up container from lid and grapes fell to the floor.That's the reason for my 4 star rating. It cleans well, vents well, stores well otherwise.

I have been looking for a container that will hold a head of lettuce or two. My refrigerator wilts all my veggies so I started looking feverishly for containers. After a year I found this one at a local store. The price was way too high looked on Amazon and I got two for the price of one and it works great.

So far so good. I've been using these about 2 weeks. Keeps fruit fresh and seems to last longer. Easy to use to wash fruit as well. Only thing I don't like is the lid doesn't snap on it just sits on top so its not secure other than that I love them so far!

The storage containers really do what's intended, store and offer longer life to produce. I am pleasantly surprised!

Overall, I like these. I have several for a variety of produce. They stack nicely and are easy to clean.Downside for me is the ventilation. When I buy my fruits they are in recyclable plastic with ample ventilation holes. Amazon Basics only has a few vent slots in the top only on one side and I wonder if it’s really getting the ventilation fruits need, especially berries.Suggestion to Amazon Basics: I think the slider on the lid could easily be split in 2 sections to allow for more ventilation by providing slots on both ends. These could also be closed completely if storing spinach, lettuce, or other vegetables. I can’t imagine this would cost more to manufacture this way and allows the user to choose no, low, or high ventilation.

These are a great size and we’re exactly what I was looking for but warped in the dishwasher the first time I washed them. Now I can’t even get the lids on them. Bummer!

It’s a shame the lids are so loose

Très sceptique, j'ai acheté ce produit parce que je mettais des boites en plastiques pour ranger mes légumes dans le frigo. Sauf qu'avec l'humidité, il y avait toujours un peu d'eau au fond de ces boites et les légumes s'abiment vite.Les commentaires étant plus satisfaisant, je me suis lancée. Et je ne suis pas déçue ! Le temps de conservation de mes fruits et légumes a presque doublé.L'ensemble des boites s'adapte parfaitement à mon bac à légumes ! A croire que le produit a été conçu pour mon frigo ! Par contre, étant une grosse consommatrice de légumes et fruits, je ne peux presque jamais mettre les couvercles mais je ne suis pas sure que cela change grand chose quand je vous le temps de conservation.Les boites sont de bonnes tailles et on arrive à mettre une botte de carottes avec des courgettes dans les bacs en longueurs, des pommes ou des pêches dans les plus petits carrés... Il y a toujours une façon d'organiser pour que chacun trouve sa place (et au pire, comme je le disais, on peut se garder de fermer la boite).Juste un détail, le couvercle se pose sur le dessus mais ne se "clipse" pas comme sur une boite en plastique classique (très pratique pour ouvrir et fermer rapidement sans devoir sortir la boite du compartiment à légumes mais pour certains, il semble que cela ne soit pas ce qu'ils attendaient.Idéal pour les légumes et les fruits, cela fonctionne très bien pour le fromage et éviter les odeurs prenantes dans le frigo. Les boites sont pratiques, solides et je suis surprise de la qualité du panier intérieur vert, bien plus résistant et de bonne facture que je ne croyais.Concernant le lavage, surtout PAS de lave-vaisselle ! Mais les boites sont faciles à laver à la main et pour le panier vert, il suffit de le mettre à tremper quelques minutes dans de l'eau et du vinaigre blanc pour qu'il soit facile à nettoyer après.Je ne m'attendais pas à être aussi satisfaite de ce produit ! Je recommande donc vivement !

Uno ha traído la tapa rota. Lo he comprado en una oferta, relación calidad precio buena, los 4 tupers por 10€, para poner verduras y frutas perfecto, para comida al no ser estanco no es tan útil.

En la descripción pone que las cestas se pueden lavar en el lavavajillas. No es cierto, trae el etiquetado que dice que no es apto y se deforman de manera muy apreciable si los lavas.

Bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Produkt,Das Obst und Gemüse hält sich länger um Kühlschrank und dieser sieht dadurch viel geordneter aus.Nur sind die Dosen leider nicht Spülmaschinen geeignet!!!!
