Fridge odors happen. Whether a spill went unnoticed for too long or something went bad (like, really bad), sometimes your refrigerator can start to stink. And although the old open box of baking soda trick can lessen smells for a while, it just doesn’t last forever — plus, you waste a perfectly good box of baking soda!

Enter the Purriko Refrigerator Deodorizer. It’s a little gadget that literally sucks up all the bad gasses within your fridge and decomposes them, leaving behind an odor-free space that finally smells as fresh as the fruits and veggies inside.

The Purriko device will last up to 10 years without needing any need to replace filters or recharge. It uses advanced catalytic technology to decompose odor-causing gasses and the stainless steel exterior won’t rust or absorb those smells. It’s really the only thing that can be totally forgotten in the back corner of your fridge and won’t cause you to gag months later when you rediscover it.

And according to the thousands of five-star reviews, this thing really works. “Small and neater than a box of baking soda, also does a much better job,” one person wrote. “We like cheese and that tends to smell up our clean fridge. This has definitely eliminated this problem.”


“My mother recently moved into my home and makes and stores batches and batches of kimchi, fish paste, fish sauces, garlic, etc, things I don’t normally keep in my home,” another person said. “The odors had overpowered my refrigerator and seeped into my foods, kitchen, and dining room, and infused into my clothing, furniture, and curtains … I purchased this item and expected immediate results. After several hours, there was no change. I left it overnight and in the morning I noticed a slight change. By the evening, the odors were GONE. It has restored balance in our home!”

And this handy deodorizer can be used anywhere in your home — place it in your shoe storage area to get rid of funky feet smells. Tuck one into your car to get rid of musty odors.
