This is such a clever little gizmo. With most berries costing a fortune, opening the fridge to find they've grown green fuzz overnight is upsetting. But there are only so many berries even I can eat at once, and until now, wasting half the container was frustrating but inevitable. This is so easy to use: You stack your berries in two layers, so they are not pressing down on one another making themselves go soft, you open the little vent (it's marked "Berries/Cherries" and "Citrus/Grapes, so there is no confusion on which way to turn the marker) and even strawberries stay fresh and fuzz-free for about four or five days.
The one drawback is the size. You can't fit in any large berries, and most baskets have at least two or three of those monsters. It will hold smaller berries very well, but even medium sized ones get crushed when you put on the lid. Ideally the berry keeper could be at least another inch or so higher. Of course, you can always gobble up the ones that don't fit while you're putting away the groceries, but that would be cheating. Or just serve them that day. With brown sugar and sour cream...if you haven't tried this, you are missing one of the best things in life.
The container also says "Citrus/Grapes." Hello? Who buys 20 grapes at a time? They usually come in 1 lb bags at the market. And how do you choose which ones to save and which ones will just have to survive any way they can in the refrigerator. Do I need that kind of pressure? Cherries don't make a lot of sense either, since they're sold by the pound too. And citrus? You can't even squeeze one of those giant Steriod Strawberries into the berry keeper, let alone a lemon or lime, and they last forever anyway. If the manufacturer is referring to kumquats, I guess they'd fit, so maybe this is a big life-changing brekthrough for kumquat eaters. But personally, I don't know any.
The Berry Keeper is really good for storing berries and not much else. Which is still pretty good...check out the price of raspberries at the market lately? Losing half the tiny basket you shelled out three to six bucks for hurts.
Now if somebody would only invent a strawberry that tastes like a strawberry, we'd be all set.

Reviews with images
Well built container but very small.
To be fair the description clearly had the dimensions listed (as well as many reviews saying they wished it was bigger). Apparently I did not pay enough attention. I included pics to give the folks (like me) who are more visual. I got this for my strawberries. I will use it for my blackberries. The product is fine if you are looking for a small berry container. Seems well built and durable.
