It just works. Yes, really!
My mother has had an ozone generator for decades, one she got from Avon, ages ago. It is clunky and takes up as much room as a beer can. Why would someone waste beer space when that space could hold beer? I knew that device kept her fridge smelling nice and the ice was always tasteless. So, I ordered this item that I am reviewing. I was dubious, at best, mostly because of its tiny size. There was no way that this small device could handle my refrigerator, with the broccoli, cauliflower, occasional sliced onion, fresh fruit, and left-over foods. (Hint: It does)While these foodstuffs are in containers, bags, etc., odors will leach out into the refrigerator, regardless. I will clarify that I keep fresh vegetables in ventilated produce bags and leftovers in sealed containers, yet those odors would come together for one powerful chorus of "Who's your daddy?" Once those odors are loose, the ice in the freezer would taste like it was made with swamp water! Now, who has time and money to waste on changing out clunky boxes of baking soda or big pouches of activated charcoal? I don't. Plus, I am forgetful and will not remember to change those items for months on end.I read and distilled reviews on several devices and settled on this one. I am glad I did. When I received it, I charged it fully, then read the instruction booklet. I didn't have to, but I set the device to high-power for an hour, with the blue light blinking every second. I then switched it to "maintenance" low-mode, so the pink light would pulse every few seconds telling me it was in low-mode. I checked the refrigerator and could, at first, smell the ozone doing its job, but after the device went into low mode, there was no smell. None at all. I couldn't smell the green smell of produce nor could I smell the faint aroma of a sliced onion from its container. I opened the freezer and was hit with cold fresh air, but no lingering smell of a refrigerator. It works!Here is what I do: I leave the device in low-mode and place it on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator, visible when I open the door. This way, I notice it right away, so I am always reminded to observe its operating mode and to check my calendar to see when I should charge it. Besides, the vents for the crispers are right below the bottom shelf and benefit from the ozone generation to combat the ethylene gas that the food produces, which causes ripening (and eventual rot) to occur. In low mode, it will run about 30 days and in high-power mode, about three days. I charge it every three weeks because after I charge it, I put it in high-power mode for an hour, set an alarm, then switch the device back to low mode. I know that once you turn it on, it puts itself into high power mode for half an hour, then switches back to maintenance, unless you intentionally set it to high-mode and leave it there. After turning on, pressing the button alternates between high and low mode. Long press turns it on or off. However, I want to "shock the fridge," and compensate for having it in there for the charging time and the opening of the door to remove and replace the unit. How well does it handle prolonging produce life, in addition to mitigating odors? Well, I notice that the spinach, berries, green onions, grapes last longer. They are in vented produce bags, so their odors didn't mingle too much anyway, but they don't trade flavors, now, as they were prone to do. And the ice. I make it with filtered water anyway, but it tastes like nothing, now. That is a huge benefit. I am happy with this little gem and if you need something like this in your life, then it will likely please you, as well.Do you need this very model? Well, if you follow the written instructions, it will do what it is supposed to. Don't expect it to do what it isn't designed to do, then give it a scathing review because it didn't do something completely out of scope. Read some reviews, read EVERYTHING in the seller or manufacturer's posting, and make up your mind. Will this little darling deodorize your RV or walk-in clothes closet? No. No, it won't. There is too much free air and open space. Will it slow the ripening in a fruit bowl that is out in the open? Probably not, due to air currents and the vastness of an open area. Now, will it deodorize a gym bag or personal locker with your most comfortably worn and smelly shoes and work-out gear? Yes, yes it will. Will it deodorize your car? Maybe. Perhaps. Would it deodorize your refrigerator? Definitely. Oh, yeah, don't put it in the freezer--that is out of scope and freezing the battery will cause it to fail. Don't do that. Using it within the scope of its design, you need this in your life; you really do.

Remarkably Effective!
Before I found these I was pretty sure I would have to buy a new fridge, because despite several tries I’d had zero success eliminating a persistent odor that was causing our household to have to throw away lots of food well before expiration or using them up.Within a couple of days of putting these units to work, the problem was 100% solved!Our refrigerator and freezer developed a bad smell that had been persisting for well over two years. I think it was the cumulative result of a series of situations where vegetables had rotted down to liquid in the crisper drawer on multiple occasions when we ended up away longer than expected for nearly two-month periods, and other multiple times when foods tucked away in the back of the fridge had gotten moldy.The smell had gotten so bad that items like stick and whipped butter in the fridge, and frozen pizza, waffles, ice pops, and ice cream regularly had to be thrown away within just a couple of weeks’ storage because they would develop off flavors. Even sealing vulnerable items like tubs of whipped butter in zip-lock bags didn’t do much to add to their usable life.I’d already tried keeping multiple open boxes of baking soda and other specialized baking-soda based fridge deodorizer products in the fridge and freezer, to no avail. I even emptied and scrubbed the whole fridge with a baking soda solution a couple of times, but within a few days the odor was back.I guessed that whatever was causing the smell had gotten into the fridge’s air circulation system or whatever other hidden mechanical parts, perhaps the compressor itself, created the environment inside the fridge and freezer, and waa afraid there might be no way ro fix the problem short of throwing out the unit and buying a new one. Which was a particularly bad solution since we’re renting, the fridge belongs to the landlord, any new fridge we would buy would become his, and we expect to move within the next 12-18 months.Desperate for a solution, I searched the internet for info and suggestions, then looked on Amazon. There were plenty of products made with plant-based materials or other alternatives that claimed to do a better job than baking soda. But even those with the best overall reviews had a sizable share from other people who said they didn’t help at all or the results proved short-lived.Reviews for this Mini USB fridge deodorizer were among the best overall. And I was intrigued by its completely different approach to the problem, and the facts that it was a more active solution and didn’t need to be continually replaced. So I ordered 2 of them.They are quick to charge, easy to operate, and came with simple, clearly written instructions.There are two settings - one that emits ozone more frequently to deal with the probleminitially; another for ongoing “maintenance” that discharges ozone on a less frequent schedule allowing it to run longer between recharging.Given how bad the problem was and how long it had persisted despite all the previous attempts to get rid of the odor, I was hopeful but didn’t expect quick results, if the unit would even work at all.Boy, was I delightedly surprised! Within 24 hours of putting one deodorizer in the fridge and then a few hours later, the other in the freezer, the smell was very noticeably diminished. The day after that, it was completely gone! It’s now been over 5 weeks, I switched both units to the maintenance setting three weeks ago, and the fridge and freezer are still perfectly odorless.My grown son who lives with me has sensory issues, is acutely sensitive smells, and for years has refused to open the fridge or freezer and take out ANYTHING for himself because of odors. This was the case even before the problem “off” smell developed, just because he also couldn’t deal with even the slightest hint of any sealed up leftovers or cheeses in the fridge.Now he has no problems at all with opening the fridge. Even when I had some leftover Chinese food with a pretty overpowering garlic sauce smell, I just switched the USB deodorizer back to the higher setting, and voila! - No more scent of leftovers at all.Needless to say, I’m thoroughly delighted - as well as quite surprised, honestly - at how amazingly effective these little electronic deodorizers are. They’re also very quick to recharge.I heartily recommend them - they are miracle-workers!

As advertised
Over a short period of time the refrigerator was effectively deodorized with the device on High. The battery life is as good as stated. After recharging and setting the device too low, the battery lasts an entire month. It effectively continues to deodorize and keep the refrigerator space and the freezer Space well within the expected norms. It does not overpower the space and it does not take up much space and can be moved about as needed. Much more effective than a box of baking soda. Highly recommended.

Magic
I don’t know what kind of magic this is, but this product really works!!! We went on a four month long trip and forgot to empty our fridge. By the time we came back, the fridge has created it’s own biological species. I tried everything - cleaned it with bleach, Clorox, Windex, antibacterial wipes, put baking powder and salt on a shelf, but nothing helped. There was extremely strong moldy smell. I stumbled across this devise and was extremely skeptical but decided to try it. Bad odor was lighter after day one, and was completely gone after day 2 (I used lower setting). On a negative side, there is no way it can hold a charge for 30 days. It’s only been 2 weeks and it’s already on 19%. But I don’t mind charging it every 2-3 weeks as long as it works.

No more baking soda
Ensure that the device gets a full charge before using. My fridge was having an odor so I used the more powerful mode for a few days, then switched to the regular mode. Fridge smells fresh. Won’t have to buy replacement baking soda, just recharge and go, every month. Will be buying more!

Premium Kühlschrank-Deo
Das als "Kühlschrank-Deo" bezeichnete ist ein Ozon-Luftgenerator, der zu meiner Verblüffung extrem gut funktioniert. Für so ein kleines Gerät (nur 12 cm lang) wird tatsächlich, jedenfalls bei mir, eine frische Atmosphäre im Kühlschrank erzielt.Ozon wirkt hier als Geruchskiller, sollte zwar nicht inhaliert werden, ist aber gesundheitlich unbedenklich und generiert sich zwar aus Luft, wandelt sich aber nicht zum berühmten Klimakiller, dem Treibhausgas.Das die Haltbarkeit der Lebensmittel verlängert wird, kann ich weder bestätigen noch dementieren. Ich kaufe streng nur nach Bedarf ein und so wird das MHD (Mindesthaltsbarkeitsdatum) eigentlich nie überschritten.Bevorzugen Sie die Premium-Variante, weil diese ein kleines Display anbietet, das Ladezustand und eingestellte Modi anzeigt. Im Modus "1" wird in schneller Abfolge jeweils 15min Ozon produziert. Das belastet die Ladung, die dann auch nur so etwa 1-3 Tage hält. Deshalb nur am Anfang, sozusagen als Initialzündung zu verwenden. Dann reicht Modus "2", der bei mir mindestens eine Woche hält. Hier wird seltener Ozon generiert, aber bei meinem großen Kühlschrank (182 cm) ausreichend.Ein Ladekabel auf USB-A ist dabei, aber kein Ladegerät. Hier einfach das vom Smartphone benutzen, an den PC/Laptop klemmen oder an eine Powerbank anschließen. Obacht: Das Laden im Gebrauch funktioniert nicht. Es haben hier offenbar schon einige Rezensenten versucht, das 'Kühlschrank Deo' mit einer Powerbank im Kühlschrank zu deponieren und sich dann empört, dass das nicht funktioniert hat.Auf solche Ideen muss man erstmal kommen: Powerbank im Kühlschrank.Fazit: Die Premium-Variante ist effektiv, der Ladezyklus im Modus 2 in Ordnung. Ein frischer Geruch, effektiver als Backpulver oder Kaffeesatz. Kaufempfehlung!

funktioniert wirklich
Ich habe mir ein Kofferset gekauft, dass leider auch nach einer Woche lüften noch so unangenehm gerochen hat, dass nicht daran zu denken war, Kleidung in einen der Koffer zu legen. Also habe ich mir dieses Gerät gekauft und es damit versucht. Und siehe da, nach einem Tag war schon eine gewisse Besserung zu spüren, nach zwei Tagen war der Gestank kaum noch wahrnehmbar und ab dem dritten Tag konnte ich nur noch den Geruch wahrnehmen, den das Gerät von sich gibt. So richtig nach nichts riecht es nämlich nicht. Es riecht nicht schlecht aber es hat eben doch einen deutlichen Eigengeruch. Vielleicht vergleichbar mit einem sauberen oder brandneuen Kühlschrank. Das kann ich meinen Kleidern zumuten und ich bin sehr zufrieden mit der Leistung dieses kleinen Gerätes. Und es hat bei mir auf der hohen Stufe auch eine Woche gehalten. Jetzt läd es gerade und das scheint, wie schon einige Leute hier geschrieben haben, auch wirklich sehr schnell zu gehen. Von mir daher eine klare Kaufempfehlung!

Keine störenten Gerüche mehr
Wir haben uns das elek. Kühlschrank Deo gekauft, da wir gern Käse essen und so mit der Kühlschrank immer nach diesen richt. Nun kommt einen beim öffnen der Tür kein unangenehmer Geruch mehr entgegen. Wir waren sehr erstaunt, wie gut dies geht. Wir laden ab 20% bis voll) was ca. 1h dauert und dies reicht für ca. 7 Tage bei Stufe 1. Somit fallen keine Kosten (außer Laden) mehr für den kauf von Kühlschrank-Deos an.

Excellent device
This device claims to release ozone and de stink your fridge; it works! I was skeptical at first but then quite impressed with its efficiency! Small and unobtrusive, it tells you when it is running out of juice and you can plug it into a usb for recharging. I wonder if there is a larger size for a toilet.Recommended!
