Many have encountered a problem when a persistent unpleasant odor appears in the refrigerator, and it is not possible to remove it even with repeated cleaning with detergents. It is formed for several reasons. The first of them is the expired shelf life of the products, the second is their leaky storage. A long-term power outage and power surges in the network lead to defrosting of meat, fish, semi-finished products and, as a result, a strong amber appears, which, when the refrigerator is opened, spreads not only in the kitchen, but throughout the apartment.

Elimination of odor and prevention of its appearance again is possible with careful hygiene of the shelves and walls, control over the market proximity and shelf life of food. Another effective method is the use of odor absorbers. These mini-devices are able to neutralize the smell of fish, smoked meats, vegetables, cheese, garlic and keep the interior clean and fresh without much effort on the part of the hostess.

Absorbers are classified according to their principle of action. The absorbent can be a gel or a carbon filter. Some models have an additional antibacterial effect, fighting the growth of microorganisms. Some housewives trust only folk remedies. This method is effective, but still high-quality industrial absorbers will give better results than lemon slices, slices of black bread or coffee beans spread out on the shelves.

For those who have doubts about buying and do not yet know which device to buy, our experts have compiled a list of 7 models that, according to consumer reviews, have high performance. They are the ones who manage to cope with persistent odors without negatively affecting the food. These absorbers are made from safe raw materials and do not affect the environment.
