works well, but limited
I bought 3 different lettuce savers; this one, the 14 cup Rubbermaid, and the Progressive LKS-06. All work on the same principle of having a sealed container over a drip bed to keep the produce out of the water but moist. This one works well but is limited to head lettuce or a couple smaller leaf heads. The design calls for coring the head of lettuce and setting it on a spike that is permanently attached to the grid in the bottom. If you don't core it there's not enough room in the container for a normal head of iceberg. You can cut off the spike and make it serviceable, but it's hard to understand the logic of the design in the first place. It won't handle varieties such as Romaine or red leaf, and is unsuitable for dandelion, kale, or root greens. An issue mentioned by another reviewer is that the "Klip It" locking tabs tend to become unattached when opening the container. Not a problem unless they hit the floor and bounce under your fridge. Guess how I found that out. The one I like the best is the Progressive. It can handle a much wider variety of shapes and seems to offer the most storage space while fitting best in my fridge. I use it for Romaine along with leeks, carrots, celery, etc. The Rubbermaid I liked the least as the square, squat shape doesn't seem to hold very much (a normal head of iceberg won't fit), but takes up an excessively large amount of shelf space. This Klip-It is perfectly fine if you only want to store iceberg or similar lettuce types.
