From the picture I assumed I would receive both the Lemon and the Lime saver. I see now that the description says you will receive either a green one or a yellow one, guess I should have read better.

I like the lemon saver though, it works great and is saving me from using so many plastic baggies. I just wish you got both and now I'm not sure how I can get the Lime one since the description says you will randomly get one or the other...

This is the best thing to keep lemons or limes fresh once they have been cut. If you only use half of the lemon or lime, this stores the other half and keeps it fresh for up to a week or longer. Great product but hard to find in the stores.

This lemon saver is great for preserving the quality of your lemons and allows them to last longer without spoiling when you cut them open. The price for this product is very affordable and it is easy to wash with soap and water if needed. The size is not too big and fits easily into the refrigerator fruit/vegetable compartment. The lemon fits nicely inside the saver too. Unless you get a huge lemon. Then you might have yourself a dilemma. :)

I ordered two, figuring I that the people packing these nice little containers would put a bit of thought into it and send me ONE OF EACH COLOR. Duh. Didn't happen - I got two yellows. So unless I break out the magic marker, I won't know which are my limes and which are my lemons! I can see no way to pick a color on Amazon.

My wife bought one of these convinced that it would preserve the lemons we use for drinks. I believed it to be just more plastic kitchen clutter but was willing to conduct a test. We put a cut-open lemon (one wedge removed) in the fridge uncovered and we put another cut-open lemon (both purchased at the same time) in this plastic container.

Within a week, the uncovered lemon showed signs of drying but was still perfectly usable. The lemon placed in this plastic pod had developed a white mold and had to be thrown out.

Realizing that the only difference was in the humidity, I tried drilling holes in the plastic pod to allow some of the moisture from the lemon to escape. This helped to extend the time before the mold appeared but did not stop it from making the lemon useless long before the fully exposed lemon was too dry for use.

Save your money and simply keep your lemons in the produce compartment of your fridge. This item serves no useful purpose, promotes spoilage of a lemon rather than retarding it and takes up far more space that a lemon alone. If you feel you must contain a lemon, just put it in a Ziploc sandwich bag, a whole box of which may be purchased for the price of this lemon-shaped gimmick.

These work REALLY well for keeping lemon and lime halves fresh in the fridge, but now I'm ordering a few more because my husband is also using them to take small avocados to work. Great product!

I love it. I've been squeezing the same lemon for about 5 days now. I use the lemon juice on my face (along with other things) which also work great. Where I live, lemons are expensive and now I only have to buy about 4 a month. This thing has paid for itself in lemon savings.lol. There is no leakage and it still taste fresh. I also have the onion saver and the bellpepper saver. The tomato saver will be next. These things are awesome and will definitely save you money in the amount of veggies you are not throwing out. And by the way, the onion saver eliminates your whole fridge smelling like onion.

A friend had these and told me that they really worked. I found them on line and ordered them for my daughters and two of my friends. We all love them... and they really work! I cut a lime and five days later, opened it and the half lime I put in there was still moist and juicy, not dried out!

I bought this to replace using saran wrap on my half lemons. I love it! The fruit stays fresher longer and the size is large enough to hold the whole lemon before you start cutting into it unlike another style that is out there which only fits a half. I bought mine on Amazon and have since seen them in the kitchen gadget sections of some grocery stores for a lower price than what I paid online.

This is one of those brilliant ideas that everyone needs but large manufacturers can't make enough money with it to waste time selling. Thank you to the person who did. I wish I'd had this years ago. But I do now so Woo Hoo for my Lemon Saver!! Give one to the person who has everything. I'll bet they don't have one of these!!
