Review: Not a miracle, but really handy when you can’t go out so often - I bought these because of COVID. Basically, I’m trying to go out a lot less, make fewer trips to stores for less exposure risk. Therefore what I buy needs to last, to stay fresh. My biggest issue was buying berries at the warehouse club or grocery store, in larger quantities than what I needed for just a week. I’d feel pressed to eat them before they spoiled, and they didn’t last for two weeks, so I was going to the store more than I wanted in the end. I looked at Rubbermaid and others, and settled on these for the value of a set, and good ratings. Not disappointed so far. I have the DM Green Bags, bought years ago, and those are pretty disappointing; they work, but not great, and they have a limited lifespan of only 10 uses. I never reordered them, haven’t used half of them. But this crisis made me think of them again. Compared to the bags, these boxes are better in most ways. They are sturdy, stackable, good for protecting what I’m worried about (fragile raspberries and blackberries), things that would be bruised in a bag. They’re easier to wash out well than the bags. And they don’t have a limited life, from what I can see so far. They nest, which is awesome for compact storage. I handwash, because the dishwasher is terrible for plastics, and heat releases chemicals you don’t want released. But they’re super easy to wash, and they don’t seem to stain. Most importantly, they are actually keeping my berries fresh for 2 weeks. I pick out and eat the softest ones first, each time I go into the container, but they haven’t molded in these containers, unlike in their ventilated plastic trays. I have easily gotten the raspberries, the most fragile of fruits, to last twice as long as normal. That’s what I wanted them for. Blackberries did great for almost 3 weeks. Again, take the softest ones each time you’re eating some; leave the sturdy ones for last, and they’ll survive longer. But they don’t actually work on everything. Strawberries, yes. Lettuce, I think so; I used the largest tub (which isn’t all that large) for the most delicate red lettuce leaves from the mixed greens, but I did eat it within a couple of days, so hard to know for sure. I used a Green Bag for herbs—big fail. Regular store bag plus a paper towel seems to be best for leafy herbs that can be stored in fridge, in my testing. Green bag made cilantro slime out a lot faster, not sure why. The containers are holding baby carrots right now, to compare with the vegetable container I bought with a drainage grid inside; that one is better than just the bag they came in, but not by a ton. We’ll see if the Green Boxes do better. Nice array of sizes; I do wish I had more big boxes, and possibly bigger than the largest size, but at some size, it may not be effective (or it would have to be flatter to be). The set comes with plenty of containers, so it’s not a big deal; I just use more than one if I need to. That may be a better idea anyway for berries, to use the shallow containers instead of the deep ones. For mushrooms, I prefer a paper bag. Same for jalapenos. Same for beets. I think these containers work best for the really delicate stuff, though not for herbs. They are a pain to open at first, as some other reviewers have noted; it just takes a bit of patience and getting used to it, but I think that’s because they’re supposed to be airtight at the seal. Reminds me of opening some of the plastic clamshells; risk of spilling stuff if you’re not careful. I always open on a counter, not up in the air, and so far no disasters. Review: These really work and will save you money!! - These containers are incredible. We have used them for years and just ordered a second set. We use them to keep vegetables and produce longer. I recently bought six avocados and put three in one of these containers and left three out on the counter. After six days, the ones on the counter were ripe, the three in the green container were still green. We have definitely saved money by keeping our produce longer. ## Features - Freshness That Lasts: Debbie Meyer UltraLite GreenBox food storage containers feature FoodFresh System Technology embedded in the BPA-free plastic to help create an ideal storage environment for fruits, vegetables, baked goods, snacks, and everyday meals. - Lightweight Everyday Storage: Ideal for busy families, students, office workers, travelers, and meal preppers, these reusable food containers are lightweight and easy to carry for lunches, picnics, road trips, and daily meal prep. - Easy To Use Daily: These reusable containers with lids are microwave safe using low heat setting and top-rack dishwasher safe for convenient reheating and cleanup.

They are light weight yet durable if you use them carefully -- just CAREFULLY, not as though they are fragile. I am very careful with everything I own so these boxes last for years, and they ABSOLUTELY help preserve foods, BOTH cooked and fresh. I prefer organic produce so GreenBoxes have saved me plenty of $$$ through the years. They also freeze well, but be most careful when handling them frozen. If you drop them, they will crack very easily when frozen. I get busy and sometimes clumsy as I try to pull things from the frig for quick meal prep and will drop a container that's cold. I don't have the breakage problem with the cold ones like I do with those that are frozen, but I don't have cement floors in my home either. I can't imagine wasting money on other plastic ware when this stuff works so well. I just hope the company starts selling the boxes grouped by size in addition to a set. I find I need more of the small ones than any others, and I don't have room to store all the extra that comes in a full set with all sizes. Just a thought :-) **Q: How do these ultra light boxes compare to the "standard" green boxes in the 74 piece set?** A: I personally like these better than the standard ones because these UltraLites nest inside each other. They take up very little room when stored, they're translucent, and they also stack very neatly in the fridge :) I love them for my tidy lifestyle, try them out! **Q: Has anyone used these for cut up veggies i.e. celery, carrots, red peppers?** A: I love them! I put all my veggies for my salad in them. I cut up peppers, onions and they last a long time being fresh and crisp. I store my mushrooms in them and they stay so fresh. I highly recommend them. They are better than storage bags. **Q: Do the boxes become less effective with each use?** A: I have been using the green bags and I understand your question about them becoming "less effective." The bags DO become less effective after about 20-30 uses. I have just bought the boxes because there was no comment on the reduction of effectiveness. I'm hoping they last even longer because I am tossing out my numerous other containers that have seen better days but did not DO what I am expecting these to do! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not a miracle, but really handy when you can’t go out so often *by R***I on June 9, 2020* I bought these because of COVID.

We have used them for years and just ordered a second set. We use them to keep vegetables and produce longer. I recently bought six avocados and put three in one of these containers and left three out on the counter. After six days, the ones on the counter were ripe, the three in the green container were still green. We have definitely saved money by keeping our produce longer. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We absolutely love these green boxes. *by J***. on May 11, 2023* We have had a set of these for many years and love them. I want to say we’ve had them about 10 years now. They are just beginning to show a little wear and tear. The boxes are still intact, but some of the lids are cracked where you pull the little tab to open them. I decided it was time to get some more. I guess it’s safe to say that they are definitely durable little container. I store nearly all our fruits and vegetables in these in the refrigerator. After I wash and/or cut fruits and vegetables then LET THEM DRY. Once they are dry I put them in one of these containers. I store veggies like celery, red/ green peppers, carrots, mushrooms, lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower and green onions and yellow/white onions. I use them for fruits like grapes, berries and fresh pineapple. They also work great with fresh parsley and basil. ( I imagine they work with many more fruits, veggies and herbs, but these are the most common things we use ). I also use them to make salads for lunches. I put the lettuce in a large one and the freshly sliced/copped veggie toppings in a smaller one. I can make a couple for the week ahead and they can grab them for their lunch box. Quick and healthy lunches made easy. To be sure, they aren’t going to keep everything “garden fresh”. Nothing is going to do that. Once it’s taken from the garden or tree, it begins to degrade. However, these definitely keep things fresher longer We definitely have much less waste. We don’t have to stop at the store as often just for fresh produce. Fruits/veggies are often odd shaped and/or bulky items that roll around in the fridge. These boxes stack neatly and leave more space in the fridge. Obviously they are green in color and not completely transparent, but it is still pretty easy to see what is inside the containers. We have been pleased with their durability and performance. Enough to come back years later for another set. ## Frequently Bought Together - Debbie Meyer GreenBoxes 32 Piece Set – Keeps Fruits, Vegetables, Baked Goods and Snacks Fresh Longer, Reusable, BPA Free, Microwave and Dishwasher Safe, Made in USA - Debbie Meyer GreenBags 40-Pack (16M, 16L, 8XL) – Keeps Fruits, Vegetables, and Cut Flowers, Fresh Longer, Reusable, BPA Free, Made in USA - Debbie Meyer GeniusSponges-8 Scrubber Sponges with Built-in Odor Blocking Properties --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/2303924-debbie-meyer-ultralite-greenbox-reusable-food-storage-containers-with-lids](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/2303924-debbie-meyer-ultralite-greenbox-reusable-food-storage-containers-with-lids) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-30*
