THESE GREEN PLASTIC BOXES WILL SAVE YOU MONEY. AND KEEP FRUITS, VEGGIES FRESHER LONG.

We have had a set of these for many years and love them. I want to say we’ve had them about 10 years now. They are just beginning to show a little wear and tear. The boxes are still intact, but some of the lids are cracked where you pull the little tab to open them. I decided it was time to get some more. I guess it’s safe to say that they are definitely durable little container. I store nearly all our fruits and vegetables in these in the refrigerator. After I wash and/or cut fruits and vegetables then LET THEM DRY. Once they are dry I put them in one of these containers. I store veggies like celery, red/ green peppers, carrots, mushrooms, lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower and green onions and yellow/white onions. I use them for fruits like grapes, berries and fresh pineapple. They also work great with fresh parsley and basil. ( I imagine they work with many more fruits, veggies and herbs, but these are the most common things we use ).I also use them to make salads for lunches. I put the lettuce in a large one and the freshly sliced/copped veggie toppings in a smaller one. I can make a couple for the week ahead and they can grab them for their lunch box. Quick and healthy lunches made easy.To be sure, they aren’t going to keep everything “garden fresh”. Nothing is going to do that. Once it’s taken from the garden or tree, it begins to degrade. However, these definitely keep things fresher longerWe definitely have much less waste. We don’t have to stop at the store as often just for fresh produce. Fruits/veggies are often odd shaped and/or bulky items that roll around in the fridge. These boxes stack neatly and leave more space in the fridge. Obviously they are green in color and not completely transparent, but it is still pretty easy to see what is inside the containers.We have been pleased with their durability and performance. Enough to come back years later for another set.

Después de ver tantos productos que ofrecen maravillas y no funcionan, estos moldes son la excepción. Realmente alargan la vida útil de los alimentos además de que su tamaño y forma permite acomodarlos perfectamente en el refrigerador. Ya he comprado varios juegos y definitivamente los recomiendo.

Product is good but the kids feel flimsy but so far so good. All the kids are the same size so no trying to figure out which kid for each container.

Muy buen producto recomendado 100%

Conserva muy bien los alimentos, me han gustado bastante

I bought these because of COVID. Basically, I’m trying to go out a lot less, make fewer trips to stores for less exposure risk. Therefore what I buy needs to last, to stay fresh. My biggest issue was buying berries at the warehouse club or grocery store, in larger quantities than what I needed for just a week. I’d feel pressed to eat them before they spoiled, and they didn’t last for two weeks, so I was going to the store more than I wanted in the end.I looked at Rubbermaid and others, and settled on these for the value of a set, and good ratings. Not disappointed so far. I have the DM Green Bags, bought years ago, and those are pretty disappointing; they work, but not great, and they have a limited lifespan of only 10 uses. I never reordered them, haven’t used half of them. But this crisis made me think of them again.Compared to the bags, these boxes are better in most ways. They are sturdy, stackable, good for protecting what I’m worried about (fragile raspberries and blackberries), things that would be bruised in a bag. They’re easier to wash out well than the bags. And they don’t have a limited life, from what I can see so far.They nest, which is awesome for compact storage. I handwash, because the dishwasher is terrible for plastics, and heat releases chemicals you don’t want released. But they’re super easy to wash, and they don’t seem to stain.Most importantly, they are actually keeping my berries fresh for 2 weeks. I pick out and eat the softest ones first, each time I go into the container, but they haven’t molded in these containers, unlike in their ventilated plastic trays. I have easily gotten the raspberries, the most fragile of fruits, to last twice as long as normal. That’s what I wanted them for. Blackberries did great for almost 3 weeks. Again, take the softest ones each time you’re eating some; leave the sturdy ones for last, and they’ll survive longer.But they don’t actually work on everything. Strawberries, yes. Lettuce, I think so; I used the largest tub (which isn’t all that large) for the most delicate red lettuce leaves from the mixed greens, but I did eat it within a couple of days, so hard to know for sure.I used a Green Bag for herbs—big fail. Regular store bag plus a paper towel seems to be best for leafy herbs that can be stored in fridge, in my testing. Green bag made cilantro slime out a lot faster, not sure why.The containers are holding baby carrots right now, to compare with the vegetable container I bought with a drainage grid inside; that one is better than just the bag they came in, but not by a ton. We’ll see if the Green Boxes do better.Nice array of sizes; I do wish I had more big boxes, and possibly bigger than the largest size, but at some size, it may not be effective (or it would have to be flatter to be). The set comes with plenty of containers, so it’s not a big deal; I just use more than one if I need to. That may be a better idea anyway for berries, to use the shallow containers instead of the deep ones.For mushrooms, I prefer a paper bag. Same for jalapenos. Same for beets. I think these containers work best for the really delicate stuff, though not for herbs.They are a pain to open at first, as some other reviewers have noted; it just takes a bit of patience and getting used to it, but I think that’s because they’re supposed to be airtight at the seal. Reminds me of opening some of the plastic clamshells; risk of spilling stuff if you’re not careful. I always open on a counter, not up in the air, and so far no disasters.

Podría pensarse equivocadamente que por ser de un material ligero serán frágiles. Es un material resistente y con una transparencia suficiente para ver el contenido sin tener que abrir el recipiente. Me gusta que sus tamaños sean modulares pues no hay el problema de que hay que estar clasificando las tapas. Dos tamaños de tapas para 4 recipientes. Su forma rectangular permite aprovechar mejor los espacios y pueden encimarse sin afectar la forma. Para quienes ven complicado cerrar o abrir un recipiente, a mí me funciona aplicar un poco de presión en el centro de la tapa en ambos casos.

The Debbie Meyer containers are amazing. They keep food fresh. I am a Weight Watcher and after I grocery shop I clean and dry all my fruit and veggies and store them in the containers or bags. I use both and they keep salads really fresh. I make broccoli salad and add the dressing and I put it in the fridge for the next day and it is as fresh as the day I made it. They are worth the money and it is money well spend as it prolongs the produce life in the fridge and you seldom have to throw away rotting veggies and fruit. In the long run it saves a lot of money.
