Best Purchase Ever!
I was intimidated with the price point in the beginning but took action and bought 3. We love berries and we always end up wasting it as it gets bad too quickly. Fridge friend is a game changer for us. I can now buy more nice a week and keep them in the fridge and the berries are still good even after a week!
I also have meal kits and Fridge Friend keeps them fresh for longer.
The best part is I can use it for 3 years and reactivate it once a month so I am really saving heaps of money after all!
Even my husband is impressed. Thank you!

Hi Helen,
Thank you for joining the Fridge Friend family.
I'm sorry you only received one Freshness Blueprint booklet. We have recently started adding the booklet to every Fridge Friend to ensure this issue doesn't happen again.
Please email hello@fridgefriend.com.au, and I will personally organise to have four booklets shipped to you by Express Post.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi Peter,
Thank you for joining the Fridge Friend family and for taking the time to write this review.
As a small, Aussie-owned family business, we take all feedback seriously.
I’m really sorry to hear it’s not working as expected—let’s see if we can turn that around quickly for you.
We want every customer to be 100% happy, and that can mean troubleshooting together, sending a replacement, or issuing a refund—whatever works best for you.
From experience, here are a few common reasons why results might vary:
1. Activation & care – It’s easy to miss a step during setup or maintenance. Here's a link to our latest Freshness Blueprint which is full of tips on how to get the best performance from your Fridge Friends: https://www.fridgefriend.com/pages/setup-guide
2. Placement matters – Fridge Friend works best near your fresh produce. If it’s tucked away on the top shelf or door, it may not be as effective.
3. Fridge airflow – Good circulation and smart storage can make a big difference. A crowded fridge may limit performance.
4. Timing – The minerals inside can take a few days to fully activate and create noticeable changes—especially in larger fridges.
5. Bigger loads – If your fridge is large or packed with fresh produce, you may need two or more units for the best effect.
It’s also worth noting that factors such as the freshness of your food to begin with, how often the fridge is opened, and local climate conditions can all play a role.
Here’s an article with lots of additional tips on how to get the most from your Fridge Friends: https://www.fridgefriend.com/blogs/news/how-to-store-fresh-produce
That said, occasionally we encounter a unit that simply doesn’t perform as it should. If that’s what’s happening here, we’ll replace it at no cost—or find a solution that works for you.

I've used other products before but Fridge Friend is far superior. An Experiment—mushrooms in the fridge fo almost 2 weeks and still perfect.
Everything is lasting.
I'm very pleased.

Hi Jacqui, thank you for undertaking your experiment :-)

It's great. Everything stays fresh longer.
First couple of weeks and everything seems to last longer and stay fresh. Really works. 3 yrs of this should be a good return on investment.

Not sad about it!
The team are super helpful and fridge friend does exactly what it says it’ll do. We’ve had our two in the fridge for about 2/3 months now and veggies and fruit last up to two weeks longer than what they were lasting in our fridge!
