Review on πŸ₯¦ Rubbermaid FreshWorks Produce Saver Storage Container by Claudia Phipps

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Filtration technology is a product defect

I would not buy this again. I've had it for about 4 months now. I would return them if I could. In the beginning I really liked it. Almost bought another set. I found that it didn't work as well as it originally did. I washed and dried it thoroughly between each use. I hand washed them and used the dishwasher. It is written that it can be washed in the dishwasher. When I hand washed them yesterday I noticed there was a bit of brown where the filter was. At first I just rubbed it a little along the edge, thinking it was nothing special. I took a closer look at the filter area and saw that it was dark in the small holes. I worried it was mold and saw no other way to clean it than removing the filter cap and taking out the tiny filter. It was covered with a brown slime that looked like a substance. I carefully removed the filter and it was so brittle that it snapped off the plastic rim almost immediately. I tried hand washing it but it still had some brown stains on it even after doing it twice. Well it was for me. I no longer use it and cannot return it. It says you never have to change the filter, but you can't wash it every time either because it's not designed for that. After that very disappointed.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • New competitors have emerged
