Washing fruit is so much easier when the colander and the storage box are one and the same. The clip doing the rounds on Reddit shows white lift-out colander baskets sitting inside clear boxes: rinse the berries right in the basket under the tap, let them drain, then drop the basket back in, clip the lid shut and slide it into the fridge. Stack a few together and the whole shelf looks neat and organised.
What Makes It Stand Out
This Amazon UK listing is the LATERN 5-piece set of fruit storage containers with removable colanders, the same clear boxes with white lift-out baskets you can see in the video. Each one is a 4-in-1 design for soaking, washing, draining and storing, and the double-layer build lets the water drain away from your fruit and veg to help reduce food spoilage. A food-grade silicone sealing ring and four reinforced locking clips make each lid airtight and leak-proof, keeping food fresh and dry. You get five sizes: 4.15 L, 3.15 L, 1.7 L, 0.8 L and 0.35 L. In stock and dispatched by Amazon at the time of posting.

Good To Know
The transparent lids let you see what is left at a glance, and the colanders have hidden handles so they are easy to lift out and carry. Made from BPA-free, food-grade PP, they go in the fridge and the dishwasher, and in the microwave with the lid off, with a working range of -20°C to 120°C. Empty boxes stack and nest to save space. As well as berries, strawberries, salad mix and veg, they are great for meat, pre-cut food and dry foods like rice, cereal, nuts, beans, snacks and coffee.
