Product Description

The Produce Saver eight piece set includes: (2) 2.0 cup Produce Saver containers (1) 5.0 cup Produce Saver container and (1) 14.0 cup Produce Saver container and (4) lids. The new Produce Saver from Rubbermaid helps keep produce fresher, longer. We all have had the frustration of purchasing produce and amazingly within just short while it has gone bad. The Produce Saver aims to help extend the life of produce by utilizing a tray and vent system. The Produce Saver lid features a vent that allows oxygen to circulate around the produce. Rubbermaid Produce Savers also feature a tray that is placed inside the food storage container and helps to keep the produce elevated approximately 1/2 inch out of the moisture. With the vent and the tray the Rubbermaid Produce Saver really does keep your produce fresher, longer. The Produce Saver lids snap together as well as snap to the bases for easy storage. The Produce Saver lids and bases also nest together making storage in a cabinet or a drawer much more efficient. The 2.0 cup Produce Saver is perfect for raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries. The 5.0 cup Produce Saver is perfect for strawberries or baby corn. The 14.0 cup Produce Saver is perfect for a head of lettuce, broccoli or a bunch of grapes. Rubbermaid Produce Savers are microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe.


  • 8-piece set includes: one 14-cup, one 5-cup, and two 2-cup food-storage containers, with four lids
  • Tray and vent system helps extend the life of produce
  • Super-clear base allows for better visibility of inside contents
  • Safe to use in refrigerator, freezer, microwave, and dishwasher

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm a believer!, August 10, 2008
This review is from: Rubbermaid 7J93 Produce Saver Square Food Storage Containers Set of 8 (Kitchen)
I originally purchased these on a very cynical whim. My mom had tried the "bags" which failed miserably so when I ran across this set I really had very low hopes. Well, here are my results:

So far I've had the same blueberries in one of these containers for THREE WEEKS. I purchased and washed them on July 19th, the day before a dinner party, put them in a Produce Saver bowl and put them in the refrigerator. Some were eaten at the party, many weren't. Today is August 10th and I guess I'm going to have to break down and make muffins with them or something because they're as fresh and plump today as they were 3 weeks ago.
Grapes stay so fresh in the large container (I buy 2 big bags at a time now) that after a week even their stems are still green. The grapes themselves are crisp and cold.
My strawberries lasted for a week the last time before they were finally all eaten. Not sure how long they would hold up as they are pretty popular. I just wash them, drain... Read more

If you are like us you have grapes and blueberries in the fridge at all times. Before we were placing them in bowls with paper towels to suck up the moisture.

These containers are fantastic.

Also they are made of Polypropylene so they are BPA free.

This review is from: Rubbermaid 7J93 Produce Saver Square Food Storage Containers Set of 8 (Kitchen)
I've had a set of these for years (all three sizes, with a second small one bought separately). Given how good the Amazon price is, I just bought another set.

You've got to work with the boxes, and your fridge. If you've got a relatively damp fridge (more common with the side-by-side models, since there is often condensation on the freezer-side wall), make sure the produce is absolutely dry before storing it, or there will eventually be mold. If you have a relatively dry fridge, you might want to add a bit of water to the bottom of the box. What you're storing also matters - leafy greens have lots of surface area to lose water, carrots have a lot less, lemons have almost none (and an oily skin that prevents moisture loss - I actually refrigerate citrus without the lid, just with the grid to prevent mold). If I'm storing really delicate herbs like cilantro or dill, I'll put a damp paper towel over them in the box, or, if I'm feeling Martha Stuart-ish, stick the freshly cut... Read more
