Fruits when stored in closed containers, be it ceramic or plastic, tend to go bad a lot sooner than you’d expect it. That’s because the natural gasses that emanate from the fruits get trapped, causing it to age rapidly. And contrary to what you might have heard, most fruits do not need to be refrigerated at all, with berries being the only exception.

A wire fruit basket is the answer to your fruit storage woes. It keeps the fruits at room temperature and fresher for a long time. It allows you to aesthetically decorate your fruits for display. There’s nothing more welcoming than the sight of fresh, colorful fruits and flowers in a home. More importantly, the sight of fresh fruit might constantly remind you of your daily recommended intake.

Wire fruit baskets are available in a gamut of shapes and sizes. Here are some factors to consider when you go shopping for these.

What type of wire fruit basket should you choose?

Wire fruit baskets basically fall into three categories: wall-mounted racks, free-standing baskets, and hanging baskets.

Do you shop for your weekly supply of fruits at one go? Then you might need more than one basket to store them. A wall mounted rack might suit your needs better than a freestanding single basket. Wall mounted racks can have multiple tiers. You can even stack them next to each other and store veggies in the second one. They save space and when mounted at a comfortable height, allow you to pick your fruits and veggies without bending.

If you buy your fruits every other day or so, then a compact, free-standing fruit basket fits the bill. The advantage to a single basket is that it can be stored anywhere, be it the dining table or the kitchen island. Look for freestanding baskets with sturdy legs. Older designs used scrolled legs whereas newer ones use non-skid plastic legs.

Hanging baskets have an old world charm about them. The caveat is that you need to install a hook to hang them. If you hate drilling holes, then the others might be the better pick.

What are wire fruit baskets made of?

Wire baskets are typically made of lightweight metal. But it is believed that certain acidic fruits can react with the metal, especially with aluminum and tin. Stainless steel might be a better choice because it is the least reactive of all metals.

If you are concerned about the metal leeching toxic chemicals into your fruit, you can opt for wicker. It’s a natural product and a completely safe one at that. As a plus, wicker is an aesthetically pleasing material that’s available in a variety of colors too.

Ensure that you pick a material that can be cleaned easily as well.

How to select the best design of a wire fruit basket?

Wire fruit baskets need not always look like the conventional storage baskets that we are used to. Almost anything made of wire or mesh can serve the purpose. A dish rack, for example, can double up as a great wire basket for storing fruits and veggies. So can a fish net for that matter.
Check the available space and pick a design that’s functional and attractive. Countertop designs allow you to display fruit, while wall mounted or hanging ones are purely functional.
Covered mesh baskets keep pesky fruit flies away.
A handle on the top of the basket will allow you to grip it easily and move it around if need be.
