OMG....the new ones are "adorbs"....gag!
Repeat after me....never buy Kenmore.......also never buy anything costing more than $50 without touching it.
Sorry your fridg has crummy crispers....You could put strips of duct tape over those cutie little decorations.

"Adorbs" makes me GAG!! SIL has/had the blue ones and loved them. With the interiors of about every fridge being totally adjustable, I'd use as many containers as I could fit and use the drawers that you're not crazy about for something else... mine RARELY just have veggies in them?!?

I know that style fridge. Have one in my summer home. Mine is worse....everything freezes in those bins. I use them for cold storage like beverages...

I like the oxo square one. No room for the bigger one. They have the rinse basket that keeps any moisture off the bottom though things should be stored dry. Very frustrating to need something else to store your veg. I ended up using a double plastic shoe box lined with newspaper, then p-towels, for other veg and on an upper shelf. (can't wait to replace it,,,the fridge).

The older ones look much better! Never have i run across those.

Over on the Organizing the Home forum, someone once told us that she'd put all her veggies on the door, and moved the bottles, jars, etc., from there to the crisper drawers bcs it was helping her eat her produce before it spoiled.

And yeah, I've learned my lesson on the fridge. I liked my old fridge (also a Kenmore)!

I'll have to look into the Oxo ones.

Hey Talley_Sue, good to see you over here!

FYI CF friends, Talley_Sue is an organizing guru.

What a surprise to see Talley_Sue, and a pleasant one and yes she's an organizing guru.

"....never buy Kenmore......." OK, that means, never buy LG, never buy Whirlpool, never buy Frigidaire, never buy Panasonic, never buy Broan, never buy Samsung,, never buy Electrolux, never buy GE and so on. Kenmore does not manufacture anything. Sears contracts with the companies to build for them. Above are a few of the companies that build for Sears under the Kenmore name.

We still have a 25 year old Kenmore freezer that works fine, it did need a new gasket after a garage fire, but it's been reliable. My current GE refrigerator does freeze produce in the right side crisper drawer, I've got a couple of dish towels under that drawer and that helps a little. I like the idea of putting produce in the doors, though, since I use produce far more than any of the stuff I stick in the doors anyway!

I think the new Tupperware is just too, too cute. Too cute for me, that's for sure. I like the old stuff much better, I'm not into "cutesy" at all, or even particularly decorative usually. I like things very plain and would much rather have empty space than useless "decorative items". I kind of LIKE empty space, actually...

Hi, everyone! (Isn't mustangs' pantry da bomb?)

The funny thing is, this is really an organizing question!

I'm still pondering; if I ever decide, I'll update on how well they work.

I like the idea of keeping produce in the door when you can see it more easily and keeping other stuff in the drawers.

The best thing for me to keep carrots is the large plastic container that mixed greens/baby spinach comes in. It holds a 5-lb bag of carrots (taken out of the bag). I line the bottom of the container with paper towels, and on top of the carrots. They stay quite a while without turning brown or sprouting.

thanks for the tip, Jasdip
