Baking Soda Myth – Ionic Deodorizer: Fridge Air Purifier by Oransi Giveaway

in Everything Else on

Did you grow up with the box of baking soda in your refrigerator? Promises of keeping your refrigerator odor free? This is one of the things that I never actually bought into, maybe because I just forget to purchase a box or because my refrigerator never seems to have an odor unless I happen to find a forgotten vegetable that is past its prime.

Baking Soda Myth or Fact: For the purpose of  this review I decided to try to do some research on whether using a box of baking soda is a myth or fact? My findings were inconclusive. I found many sites that state that it does indeed help,

The Straight Dope: Does baking soda really eliminate odor?

About.com: Baking Soda Tips for the refrigerator

I also found a site that disagrees:

Ask a Scientist

My own conclusion from my reading is that baking soda DOES help but only moderately. There are better solutions out there if you are looking for a fridge air purifier.

I’ve had the pleasure of reviewing an Ionic Fridge Air Purifier from Oransi. I was actually surprised at how small it was but in truth I was very glad. Who wants a large bulky item in their fridge!

It is hard to actually review the effectiveness of the fridge air purifier only because my refrigerator never tends to smell. However I do remember a few days after I put it in the fridge saying the fridge just seemed fresh. I actually love having it in the fridge, I don’t know if it is the “thought” that it is fresh or because it is really keeping it fresh. I tend to clean out my fridge once a week or so when I go grocery shopping. This is because with six people in our house I’m lucky to have enough room for my groceries. So each week before I put the new weeks groceries away I end up going through and cleaning out anything old. So nothing really gets a chance to smell or rot.

The air purifier is soundless, you really don’t know it is there. There was little instructions with it beyond explaining the light and installing batteries so I don’t know if one place is better then the other when putting it in the fridge. Mine is right up front. You can also see clearly in this photo the size as it is compared to a soda can there on the left.

Top 10 ionic fridge air purifier features that delight:

1. Save money – for starters there are no replacement filters and nothing to clean.  The air purifier uses 2 AA batteries that require replacement approximately every 90 days.  Built-in micro processor controls the operation of the air purifier so it will cycle on and off to save battery life.

2. Silent – no fans.

3. Intuitive.

4. Effective in the removal of odors and bacteria to keep your refrigerator smelling fresh and your food fresher.

5. Conveniently fits anywhere in your refrigerator.

6. Attractive neutral color and cool contemporary design.

7. Easyoperating instructions:

  • Turn it on
  • Freshen your refrigerator

8. Patented Piezo-electric technology:  allows for a high negative ion output to freshen your refrigerator without the harmful side effects of ozone that is found in standard ionizers.

9. Safety:  The Ionic Fridge air purifier has received safety certifications from GS and CE as well as the RoHS lead free directive.  Made of durable fire-resistant ABS materials.  Tested for ozone production by ITI (Industrial Research Technology Institute) and found to be 0.011 ppm which is 78% below FDA limits.

10. Operating costs: Ionic Fridge purifier average battery costs:  $1/month.

    13. I checked out the site, i would like to try one of the Robby Wash Laundry Ball Packs. that seems interesting

    43. If I could chose a product it would definately be the Robby wash blue laundry ball. What a great product it seems to be. You just toss the ball in the washer and for the next year it works in place of your traditonal laundry soap. I would love to be able to buy laundry soap only once a year and not have to lug around those heavy jugs.
