You shouldn't throw everything in your fridge in bins, but this starter set will give you a leg up in the orderly direction. With these bins, you can pair like with like and prevent spills from rifling through your fridge shelves. (Definitely not talking from messy experience or anything.) Includes two bins, a condiment caddy, and an egg holder.

Promising review: "Once in a while you are lucky and find exactly what you need and, for me, these little bins have hit the nail on the head! I originally ordered a set to organize my fridge. Apartment refrigerators just don't have the nooks and crannies of the really good ones, so organizing is a challenge. I am so happy to at least replicate the storage units of larger refrigerators and my food isn't flying all over the fridge. It is also easy to pull out what I need without things jumping out at me. Next I went to the spice shelf — perfect again. I am so pleased with them that I have ordered another set for my craft and sewing room. I can think of a hundred (well a lot) of ways to use these little guys and will probably wind up ordering more as I go." —Mountain Momma

Promising review: "This is a perfect space saver, and so much better than reusing the disposable cartons! I love that it is longer than a standard carton, utilizing more depth of the fridge shelf. I stack two on a low-clearance shelf and can put 42 eggs in just a little more width than 24 eggs in regular cartons." —Kristen J

Promising review: "Here it is! The best egg container on Amazon! How can I say that? Easy! Engineering! The slight tilt angle on the bottom of the container that the egg drawer sits on forces eggs to lightly roll forward, keeping all your eggs in the front, and never in the back, where you don't need them. It's super easy to use, so easy to clean, comes apart and can hold a full can organizer on top without issue, so no issues with sturdiness. It can easily hold 14 large size eggs. Easily one of my favorite purchases." —Karingen

Promising review: "You need to make sure that your fridge has a space tall enough for this item, but I honestly love it! It really does help keep cilantro fresh for an extended period of time.

Promising review: "This product is SO easy to use and seriously helps us squeeze out every last drop of product. There were several bottles in our fridge I had declared 'dead' and I was shocked at how much was actually left once I used on of the caps. My only complaint is that there isn't a cap for the tip as some of the product can leak out of it when you close it." —Kim

Promising review: "I love how long this works. I was forever trying to replace or remember to replace the baking soda in my fridge. Since I have hung this in my fridge it has reduced the smell of the onions that my husband is endlessly refrigerating. I hung it in the back of the fridge and just wrote in sharpie marker two years from the date I opened it. I'm thinking of getting more of the ones that are for clothes." —rlp219

Promising review: "I enjoy an organized freezer. I also found that I can save food longer.

BottleLoft's strong magnets hold soda or beer (by the caps) from the 'ceiling' of the fridge, making more room on the shelf, and it looks modern, organized, and great!

Promising review: "I've used them for red onions, cucumber, bell peppers, tomatoes large and small, and the occasional banana. I LOVE them. I feel like the produce lasts longer than if stored in a plastic bag. I do occasionally have to trim a small slice off of the veggie before using the remaining portion. I have not had any issue with them retaining onion smell. I wash on the top rack in the dishwasher and when its finished just rinse the remaining dishwasher water out and dry with a towel before storing. I would definitely recommend buying these!" —A&D W
