We bought this in January of 2017 and our Avo Saver still as good as new even though we use it with great regularity!, prior to this, we were using plastic wrap... so this has more than both paid for itself $ wise, and saved a lot of plastic waste we'd otherwise be contributing to the landfill. I usually buy the smaller avocados and just do a half at a time, but when the big guys are on too-good-to-pass-up sales, I start slicing in half, then perimeter pieces just so I can keep usin' the Saver... it's awesome! Some reviews mentioned the silicon strap being weak/breaking - I'd guess they are clamping it down far harder than necessary -- it barely needs any pressure: just enough to hold the avocado in place! - so beware of that, and your amazing Avo Saver will likely last a lifetime! I certainly recommend all avocado lovers have this in their arsenal, if they have the willpower to not eat whole avocados at once!

Great concept and very effective in keeping fresh , but has a significant design flaw
By KYBGG on Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2016
First, let me say that I have a love/hate relationship with this avocado keeper. I do a lot of Mexican cooking, so having an avocado keeper that is effective is an absolute must. As far as it keeping the leftover half of an avocado fresh, I have truly found none that are better, and I think I have tried them all! When I am done cutting apart the avocado, I simply generously squirt lemon or lime juice on the exposed avocado flesh and the pit to make sure all surfaces are covered, I lay it cut side down on the Avo Saver, I stretch the silicone strap firmly over the avocado and I secure it and put it in the fridge. If you use it the next day, it will be completely fresh. If it is more than a day or two, you will likely have a little discoloration that will not affect the flavor, but it will not look as nice. So I just cut a thin sliver off to remove the discoloration. But the rest of the avocado will be beautifully fresh and appealing. I have kept the leftover half for up to a week this way. Now for the love/hate issue and the reason I could not rate this higher. I have had 4 of these so far over the past couple of years and I have had the exact same problem with each and every one. The silicone strap tears where there is stress from attaching it. It will eventually start to tear (as seen in the picture below of my most recent one) and will ultimately separate, making the keeper unusable. This is very unfortunate, because the design of this product can't be beat. I have saved so much money by being able to effectively save the half that otherwise would have gone bad before I was able to use it. Because I can't get along without something to keep my avocados fresh, I really have no choice but to keep buying replacements when they break. For this reason I am always on the lookout for them at a popular local discount store, but I often can't find them. So I was happy to see that they are now offered in a two pack at a better price and I just ordered a set. I know the one I am using now, which I started using several months ago (flaw pictured below) will soon tear through and be rendered useless. So now I am all set with backups! Bottom line is that the design of this is fantastic, the best I have found. I really wanted to rate this higher, because of that, but I couldn't because it fails rather quickly for something that is used often. If they could fix the vulnerability of the strap, this would definitely be a 5 star product! I rely heavily on customer reviews when I go to purchase an item, and I know others do, as well. I hope you have found the information I have provided to be helpful.
