Waste less and save more with the OXO GreenSaver™ Produce Keeper. Storing produce in a plastic bag or crowded crisper limits airflow and enables moisture buildup, creating prime conditions for rotting. Each Produce Keeper uses all-natural, activated Carbon Filters to trap and absorb ethylene, a gas emitted by fruits and vegetables that accelerates the ripening process. Along with the Carbon Filter, the GreenSaver Produce Keeper’s unique construction keeps food fresher longer. A removable basket promotes airflow and prevents moisture buildup by keeping produce away from the bottom and sides of the container. A vent on the lid slides open and closed to optimize the humidity level for the produce being stored. An illustrated guide on the lid shows which fruits and vegetables thrive when humidity is higher (vent closed) and which ones keep best when the humidity is lower (vent open). The 5 Qt Produce Keeper ids great for carrots, cucumbers, celery, kale, scallions and more. The GreenSaver Produce Keeper is BPA free and dishwasher safe. The 5 Qt Produce Keeper comes with one enhanced Carbon Filter. Each Filter lasts up to 90 days, at which point it will no longer have the capacity to absorb more ethylene. Filter refills are sold separately. To sign up for reminders to replace your filter, or to learn more about the OXO GreenSaver line, visit www.greensaver.oxo.com.Capacity: 4.7 liters

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this actually help my family throw away less spoiled produce each week?
Yes. With the activated coconut-carbon filter absorbing ethylene and the adjustable humidity vent, produce typically stays fresh up to three times longer than standard storage, so fewer bags of slimy greens hit the trash.
How much money can a household realistically save by keeping produce fresh longer?
Budget-minded families often see the biggest gains from leafy greens, herbs, and berries, which are the most expensive items to replace. Cutting even two or three weekly throwaways can save a family hundreds of dollars per year.
Is this safe to wash in the dishwasher with the rest of my kitchenware?
Yes. The BPA-free plastic body, lid, and elevated basket are all top-rack dishwasher safe, so cleanup fits into a normal home routine.
Can the elevated basket really replace a colander so I have one less thing to wash?
Yes. The basket has side handles and an open mesh-style base that lets water drain freely, so it functions as a colander for rinsing greens, berries, and small vegetables before storage.
Does the airtight seal keep fridge smells from leaking in or out?
The snap closure creates an airtight seal, which keeps fridge odors out of delicate items and stops strong-smelling produce (like onions or ripe fruit) from sharing aromas with the rest of your fridge.
I only have a small fridge in my apartment. Will the large size actually fit?
The rectangular footprint is shaped to fit standard crisper drawers, and the 5 QT large size is the biggest in the line. For tighter spaces, the 1.6 QT, 2.5 QT, or 3.3 QT variants are designed for compact refrigerators and small households.
Is this a good purchase for a family of four that shops once a week?
Yes. A weekly shopper benefits most from longer-lasting produce, and stackable dedicated zones let you store leafy greens, firm vegetables, and herbs in separate containers with the right humidity for each.
Can I use this to organize my fridge so everyone in the house knows where things go?
Yes. The stackable, dedicated produce zones create labeled-by-shape zones for different types of produce, which makes it easy for the whole household to find and return items.
How does this compare to reusable beeswax wraps or silicone bags for produce storage?
Wraps and bags passively block air but do not absorb ethylene or control humidity, so ethylene-sensitive items still over-ripen. The GreenSaver actively filters ethylene and lets you set humidity, so produce typically lasts significantly longer.
Is this a better buy than buying pre-washed bagged salad every week?
Over time, yes. A head of lettuce or bunch of kale stored in a GreenSaver costs less per serving and avoids the packaging waste of single-use salad bags, while staying crisp for weeks.
What if the lid cracks or the vent breaks after months of use?
OXO covers the product with the OXO Better Guarantee, which provides repair or replacement if you experience a defect, so a household investment is protected.
Is the filter made of chemicals that I would not want near my kids' food?
No. The filter is an all-natural coconut-based activated carbon, and the body is BPA-free, so there are no chemical treatments involved.
Will it fit on a standard fridge shelf or only in the crisper drawer?
It fits both. The rectangular footprint is designed for crisper drawers but also sits flat on standard fridge shelves, in the door, or on a pantry shelf.
Can I store cut vegetables like carrot sticks or pre-chopped produce inside?
Yes. The airtight seal and humidity control work well for pre-cut vegetables, and the colander basket lets you rinse and store them in the same container.
Is this a good gift for someone setting up their first home?
Yes. New homeowners appreciate practical items that solve a real problem. It is durable, dishwasher safe, and comes in a neutral white that fits any kitchen, making it a strong housewarming pick.
Does the container need any special setup before first use?
Just wash the container, lid, and basket in warm soapy water or the dishwasher, snap in the included filter, and it is ready to use.
How do I set up the GreenSaver before first use?
Wash the container, lid, and elevated basket in warm soapy water or in the top rack of the dishwasher. Snap the included carbon filter into the lid slot, slide the vent to the setting that matches your produce (high humidity for leafy greens, low humidity for ethylene producers), and place the basket inside. The container is ready to use immediately.
How often do I need to change the carbon filter?
The activated coconut-carbon filter is designed to last up to 90 days under normal use. OXO sells replacement filters in multi-packs so you can swap one in every three months without interruption.
How do I choose the right humidity setting for what I am storing?
Use high humidity for leafy greens, herbs, and anything that wilts easily. Use low humidity for ethylene-producing items like zucchini, cucumbers, and ripe fruit. The illustrated guide printed on the lid shows the recommended setting for each produce type.
Will this fit in a standard refrigerator crisper drawer?
Yes. The rectangular footprint is specifically shaped to fit standard crisper drawers. The 1.6 QT, 2.5 QT, and 3.3 QT sizes fit most drawers, while the 4.6 QT and 5 QT fit wider drawers and lower fridge shelves.
Does it work in a mini fridge or compact refrigerator?
Yes. The 1.6 QT and 2.5 QT variants are sized for compact and mini refrigerators, and the rectangular shape fits on most small-fridge shelves or door bins.
What is included in the box?
Each GreenSaver Produce Keeper includes the container base, the lid with adjustable vent, the elevated basket (which doubles as a colander), and one activated coconut-carbon filter pre-installed in the lid. Replacement filters are sold separately.
Is the plastic safe for food contact?
Yes. The body is made from BPA-free plastic, and the filter is an all-natural coconut-based activated carbon. The container is dishwasher safe and free of chemical treatments that could leach into food.
How long does the container itself last with regular use?
With normal dishwasher use, the BPA-free body is built to last for years. The only wear item is the carbon filter, which is replaced every 90 days. OXO backs the product with the OXO Better Guarantee for repair or replacement.
What is the difference between a produce keeper and a regular airtight food storage container?
A regular airtight container keeps air out but does not manage ethylene gas or humidity. The GreenSaver does both: the carbon filter absorbs ethylene, the adjustable vent controls humidity, and the elevated basket promotes airflow. Together, these keep produce fresh up to three times longer than standard airtight storage.
