The Ginnerella 2-pack is specifically engineered for the storage of produce like potatoes and onions. These bins are made from a PET and Polypropylene hybrid, featuring a wall thickness of approximately 1.8mm. The design includes a front-access door and a manual slide vent, providing basic airflow which helps manage the natural gases released by vegetables.
These bins are designed to be modular, fitting well on standard 12-inch pantry shelves. While they provide a dedicated space for bulk produce, stacking stability is highest when the combined weight of the stack is kept within reasonable limits to avoid structural "creep" in the lower unit. The snap-fit plastic hinges allow for easy opening and closing during meal prep.
Product Realities
The lids are designed to be dust-proof, providing a shield for your produce from pantry debris. However, they do not create an airtight vacuum. For the best results with fresh produce, it is helpful to:
- Use the manual vents to adjust airflow based on the volume of vegetables stored.
- Avoid placing the bins in direct sunlight to prevent heat buildup inside the plastic.
- Wipe the interior regularly to remove any organic dust or peels.
Summary: A specialized, transparent solution for bulk vegetable storage that helps keep produce categorized and visible.
For a multi-purpose 6-pack of bins that can be used throughout the rest of the house, the Iris clear bins offer great versatility.
