I have a vegetable drawer. Having the fridge friend has kept my fruit and vegetables on good condition for much longer than before. Because I’m not throwing out rotting fruit and vegetables it’s much easier to plan meals around the produce I know I’ve bought. I’m confident they won’t have deteriorated.

Hi Daniel,
Thank you for the review.

Unfortunately, all orders to Ireland have been stopped by your local customs and are being returned to us.

I thought we had made contact with all our Irish customers; unfortunately, we missed your order.

I will process a refund for your order now and I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.

I can't find any orders under the name "mnm maa", so please contact me directly via jon@zerowasteproject.com.au, and I will look into this personally.

I did notice that you have a number of reviews stating that you didn't receive the delivery. Perhaps you have a delivery address issue?

Hi Rhonda and thank you for taking the time to provide this review.

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.

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

Please email me directly via jon@zerowasteproject.com.au.

Great Product and Excellent Customer Service!

I’ve been using the Fridge Friend for a while now, and it has truly made a difference in keeping my fridge fresh and odor-free. It’s simple to use and very effective — definitely a must-have for every household!

Recently, I encountered a small issue with my unit. I reached out to their support team, and I was so impressed with how responsive and professional they were. They arranged a replacement right away.

It really shows how much they care about their customers and stand behind their product.

I highly recommend Fridge Friend not only for its great performance but also for the amazing customer service. A reliable product with an even more reliable team behind it!
