13 IKEA Items to Tidy Up Your Fridge

The KLIPPKAKTUS lazy susan rotates a full 360 degrees, so you can easily access everything at the back of your fridge without having to move a ton of stuff around. It’s a game-changer for fridges that always feel overstuffed. This lazy susan is made of clear plastic with a raised edge to keep items in place, and it’s super affordable too.

Reviewers rave about how much this has changed their fridge game, with one saying “I have a couple of these things in my fridge, and it has changed my life. Now things that used to be forgotten in the back can be rotated to the front. [It’s a] good price, too. The clear plastic makes it look like it came with the fridge.“

The SNURRAD lazy susan is a premium IKEA product that’s a bit pricier than the KLIPPKAKTUS, but many reviewers say it’s well worth the extra cost. This one is larger and oblong-shaped rather than circular, which helps reduce wasted space. The tray rotates 360 degrees and even pulls out, making it super easy to access everything. Suction cups keep it securely in place too. It’s made of clear plastic, so it’s see-through and a breeze to clean.

Lots of shoppers call this lazy susan “life-changing,” with one raving, “Where has this been all my life? It’s fantastic! It makes it so much easier to store, and more importantly, find all the jars in your fridge. Assembly was super easy – it took less than 5 minutes – and it was even easier to attach to the fridge shelf. I don’t know if it’s overkill to say it’s life changing, but it’s seriously great.“

One problem with a lot of plastic fridge bins is the lack of ventilation, which can cause fruits and veggies to go bad fast. The KLIPPKAKTUS storage basket solves that issue – it’s made of sturdy, see-through plastic with holes all around for airflow. Divots in the bottom help contain any spills too.

Reviewers love how handy this basket is, with one saying “I use these in a lower cabinet to group like items for easy access. This allows me to remove the bin and select the items I need quickly and efficiently. These bins are sturdy and I love the different handles at each end, which is quite helpful when I’m pulling them out.” The thoughtful handle design is just one example of the smart, user-friendly touches IKEA is known for.

Fresh herbs are so nice to have in the fridge, but those bunches can really eat up a lot of space. The KLIPPKAKTUS herb storage container helps keep everything neat and contained. It’s sized to fit perfectly in most fridge doors, with a watertight plastic design that traps in some humidity to keep herbs fresh. A sliding window makes it easy to grab what you need without taking the whole container out.

While some reviewers are on the fence about whether it actually extends herb freshness, most agree it’s a handy little organizer. They say it fits nicely in the door and the tall, narrow shape is perfect for keeping herbs from getting squished.

The KLIPPKAKTUS drink holder is perfect for keeping cans neatly organized in your fridge. It holds up to four cans in a row, with an arm that automatically pushes the cans forward as you take one out. You can even connect multiple holders side-by-side to make your own little drinks zone on a shelf.

One happy reviewer explains, “I like this product. I like [how] it can be expanded to two or more side by side. I like the push forward feature, which is soft. Overall, a good product. It is limited to four beverages which can be a problem depending on how big a family you have.” So while the capacity is on the smaller side, it’s still a handy little organizer, especially for smaller fridges.

The KLIPPKAKTUS under shelf storage box is an ingenious little organizer that takes advantage of that hard-to-use space under your fridge shelves. It has a clip and suction cups to keep it securely in place, with a slide-out drawer that’s perfect for storing snacks, cheese, deli meats, and more.

The only downside is that it doesn’t work for all fridges – the clip won’t fit on thicker glass shelves, and the suction cups won’t stick to wire racks. But if it does fit your fridge, reviewers say it’s a total game-changer, with one commenting, “These are so great for getting those condiment packets out of the way in your refrigerator. They stay in place and do not move until you remove them.“

Sometimes, you just need a well-designed storage bin rather than a fancy organizer. The KLIPPKAKTUS storage box is IKEA’s best offering. The long, narrow design is perfect for taking advantage of the depth of fridge shelves, and it comes with a lid so you can stack them. The clear plastic means you can see what’s inside, and a tab on the front doubles as a handle and label holder.

This is a super popular IKEA product with hundreds of positive reviews. As one shopper explains, “These very reasonably-priced storage bins brought order to our messy fridge. We can now find our mustards and BBQ sauces when we need them as well as other collections of ingredients.” Simple but so effective.

Similar to the individual KLIPPKAKTUS storage box, but in a few different sizes, this set includes a long container and two smaller ones. They’re designed to fit in your fridge door, but you can use them anywhere you need some extra organization. Each box comes with a lid for protection and easy stacking.

These transparent containers won’t block your view, and the handles make them easy to grab and take out when you need to. IKEA shows them used for loose ingredients, but they’d also be great for food prepping and storing leftovers.

The BLANDA MATT serving bowl is an IKEA bestseller that works great for both serving and storage. It’s a handsome bamboo bowl with a warm, natural look that’s perfect for keeping eggs, veggies, or fruit neatly corralled on a fridge shelf. And since it’s one of IKEA’s most highly-rated products, you know it’s a quality piece.

Several reviewers praise the bowl’s nice look, with one commenting, “This bowl looks much more expensive than it actually is. It’s beautiful, has fine craftsmanship, [and is] great for fruit.” If you’re looking to bring a little design flair to your fridge organization, this is a great find.
