Better than fruit baskets? (sh.itjust.works)

Does anyone have suggestions for storing fruit (apples, bananas, oranges, avocados, and garlic 🤷) that works better than a fruit basket?

I find fruit falls to the bottom of my fruit basket, and starts turning gross. It's easy to miss because it's under a layer of other fruit.

Also, in addition to being hidden, all of the fruits are producing gasses that speed up the ripening process in all of the other fruits.

I bought some stackable baskets (like ) for our countertop and it seems to have helped with the fruit going bad as quickly.

Also, one of these for our onions and garlic.

I'd love other ideas, too!

My mom always keeps onions and garlic in a clay pot. I think this is the traditional way?

I keep apples and avos in the fridge
