It can’t just be me who feels like the job of keeping a fridge clean and tidy is a never-ending task. Just when you think you’ve got a handle on it, your spinach has wilted and your spring onions are looking sad.
That’s why I ran to add IKEA’s newest addition to their KLIPPKAKTUS range (which is dedicated range of gadgets that organise your fridge) to my basket – this bargain 6-piece set is just £15!
This handy collection of transparent storage boxes in various sizes is tailor-made to keep your veggies from giving up on you before you’ve had a chance to use them, and makes keeping on top of an organised fridge a total dream.
Joining the range’s bestselling herb container and can organiser, this is the easiest all-in-one set I’ve found to do a hard reset on my fridge. Here’s a closer look.

Klippkaktus Storage Box for Fridge Set of 6 – Transparent
This stackable set is perfectly sized to fill an entire shelf of your fridge, or work across multiple layers.
I’ve tried a fair few fridge and cupboard organisers in my five years as Ideal Home’s Kitchen Editor. The biggest lesson I’ve learned? A variety of different container sizes is essential in effectively tackling every type of food you need to store. Different shapes are a good idea too, as I’ve found with storing leftovers in my round microwave-safe stainless steel containers.
That’s where this affordable set from IKEA excels. The two larger containers, which measure 14cm in height and have a depth of 32cm, allow plenty of space for leafy or bulky veg – broccoli or pak choi will have no trouble slotting in.
The four mini boxes, which are 8cm high and 29cm long, give you space for all of those other foodstuffs that sometimes go nasty at the bottom of a plastic bag. I’m thinking cherry tomatoes, radishes, spring onions and more.
Another feature I’m definitely going to make the most of with these organisers is the fact that they’re designed to be used in conjunction with sticky notes, to remind you exactly how many days you have to use up your veggies. The handle pull at the front retracts just enough for you to pop a Post-It underneath.
There’s been a bigger focus than ever in 2026 in keeping the fridge a mess-free zone – Dunelm’s affordable selection of organisers were a huge sell out in January and you can never go wrong with a JosephJoseph investment for a sleeker kitchen, as the brand’s fridge storage line proves.
Here’s a selection of Ideal Home approved buys that our editors swear by for keeping their fridges in top-tier condition that would pair excellently with this excellent IKEA set.

Who knew fridge organisation could come in so many different forms?!
