Anyone tried Ozoori for fridge smells? Got one recently because my fridge always smells like leftovers and I’m curious if it actually helps. Not sure where to put it or how long it lasts before needing replacement. Does it make much difference with strong stuff like onions or cheese?

I bought one, put it on a middle shelf and it helped with general leftover smells. I think it lasts a few months before needing replacement, maybe 2–3, not totally sure. It tames mild odors but won’t completely remove strong onion or blue cheese smells, those still need tight containers or cleaning.

I’ve got one too and it does smooth out the usual fridge funk. It won’t erase raw onion or stinky cheeses though, those still need airtight containers or a proper clean. I stash mine on the top shelf and swap it every few months, good enough for daily use.

Not wowed, but maybe it cuts the general fridge funk a bit. Wouldn’t rely on it for raw onion or really stinky cheese, airtight containers still necessary.

Yeah same, it tones down the background funk but won’t rescue an open onion or really stinky cheese. I keep those in tubs and let the Ozoori handle the rest.

I think it helps with the general fridge funk; I keep mine on the top shelf and change it every 2 to 3 months, but not totally sure it ever beats an open onion or really stinky cheese in an unsealed container.

I think 2 to 3 months is overkill; I swap mine every 4 to 6 months and it still does the job. Not magic on an open onion or ripe cheese, but it mutes the leftover smells enough I stop noticing them. I keep it in the door for convenience, maybe not optimal but works for me.

I think 4-6 months is a bit long; I swap mine every 2-3 months because it seems to lose oomph after that. Maybe the door is easiest but I feel it spreads scent more evenly from the top shelf. It definitely cuts the general fridge funk but won’t hide an open onion or really stinky cheese, not totally sure anyone expects it to.

I put mine right in the middle of the middle shelf and honestly I still can’t tell if it’s doing much. I keep forgetting to charge it too so that probably doesn’t help.

Small correction to the thread: you don't replace it, there are no filters. It's rechargeable over USB-C, so when it fades you just charge it up and give it a basic clean. Mine lasts a few weeks per charge, and I'd stick it mid-shelf rather than the door so it's not fighting every open-and-close. It'll dull the everyday leftovers smell but won't beat an open onion or ripe cheese, so keep those sealed.
