I tried an air purifier for your fridge: does the Shelfy live up to its claims?

Shelfy fridge freshener placed on shelf in fridge among fruit and vegetables.

Even if you invest in the best refrigerator you can afford, we're all familiar with the disappointment of opening a bag of salad you only bought a few days prior, only to see that it's wet and wilted. Launched in May by Vitesy, the Shelfy aims to change this — but does it live up to its claims? I put it to the test for a few weeks to see if it kept my food fresher for longer. 

The Shelfy joins the company’s range of products designed to fight air pollution and food waste. Sitting beside the company’s air purifiers, Natede and Eteria, Shelfy has a slightly different purpose and combines the science of the best air purifiers with keeping food in your fridge fresh for longer. By "slowing down the ripening process by removing bacteria, microorganisms, and odors from your refrigerator, ensuring you always have fresh and healthy food", the Shelfy claims that it can double the shelf life of certain fruits and vegetables.
