Yes it does. I found that out by accident. I placed raspberries in the veggie drawer and completely forgot about them. 2 weeks later I stumbled upon them and they were as fresh as when I purchased them.

The refrigerator drawers are not air-tight so yes, the Berry Breeze does work on the produce in the drawers.

I don't think it has quite as strong an effect as with other stuff in the frig but it still works there. Also if stuff is in plastic bags I don't think it works quite as well because the ozone air isn't getting to the veggies. I am still trying to get past my 'old' way of doing things.

Hi Debra, I think it does. However, overall I'm not entirely sure that my produce is lasting a whole lot longer than before I got it. The Berry Breeze does seem to keep the fridge fresher though, but I'm still using plastic bags, because some of my produce got soft when not using bags. However, the problem could be my fridge, because sometimes the temp gets too cold, even though on proper setting.

No...I have used it for fruity as well as many other types / blends, and there is NO absorption of flavor or scent / odor...

I keep mine in the veggie/fruit drawers in the fridge and they work perfectly.......maybe the other reviewers are using it on the counter or in the open somewhere and it is not as effective?

We've had our small Danby all-refrigerator in the garage in Southern California for several years. (Same basic model, but older, with the can storage in the door.) We use it for storing beverages and for storing extra food in preparation for holidays/parties. The only thing we've had trouble with is milk, which seemed to go sour faster if it was kept in the garage frig. Be aware that this frig does have some temperature fluctuations and can freeze items on the bottom shelf. It also needs about 5 inches of space behind it, so the compressor (?) runs correctly.

I do not know. However, this Interdesign 70530 Refrigerator Bin, Stacking, Clear, 8" X 4" Organizers is advertised for use in the refrig or freezer, so maybe. Have you searched the company on-line?

It should work for blackberries. The juice is collected in the second chamber and the pulp of the fruit and the seeds shouldStill be up in the top chamber. You could always line the top chamber with cheesecloth if it looks like the seeds will get into the juice. I love my steam juicer. I've made two batches of sole juice and with the pulp made apple butter. Delicious!

If you flash freeze berries on a cookie sheet and then put the frozen berries in a jar and vacumme seal them putting them back into the freezer after each use I would not be afraid in the least of any contamination, but be wary of freezer burn in the jars, if you understand what I just said in a round about way. I would, however, be cautious about freezing a glass jar. I would feel much better using the vacuum sealing bags from Food Saver, depending what you have in the jars if you flash freeze berries and not liquid that may expand and possibly break the jar, the flash frozen berries may be alright.

yes. but the lid is not airtight so depending on what else is in your refrigerator, it can pick up odd smells.

I put mine in the refrigerator, I wouldn't leave it out on the counter overnight, the top doesn't completely seal so fruit flies could get in, but I haven't had any problems in the refrigerator.

This FreshSaver is only compatible with vacuum zipper bags and deli containers which are for fridge and pantry use only. It is not compatible with freezer bags.

Yes, it does work for the berries--do keep in mind that you will lose some of the juice of the berries(depending on how ripe they are), but I'd rather have produce that's safer with a bit less flavor than the alternative. One thing I did find out--don't freeze your berries first then try to clean after thawing---it's a mess! Take the time to prepare your produce first, then store afterwards--just a thought...

I can't answer the question because mine is sitting in a drawer--it didn't work. In fact it caused my bananas to ripen faster and get spots

I have used it for strawberries, blueberries and raspberries and it worked very well.

I have not tried but I understand that it will NOT. I bought this unit a little more than a year ago and I use it everyday. It has more than paid for itself and my freezer in that time. We simply don't throw food away. Vac seal and freeze become grab and go. The chamber units allow you to save liquids, seal jars and all kinds of things. I bought a bag of potato chips, sealed them in a jar and opened it 8 months later--they were great. It won't replace canning but it does save money immediately. Hope that helps. One final thought is that vacumaster does make other units which do seal mylar bags. I've sealed mine with an iron, straw and oxygen obsorbers. I have not tried but I understand that it will NOT.
