“ A crisper drawer, sometimes called a humidity drawer, is a bin in your fridge that helps preserve freshness and may prolong the lifespan of your fruits and vegetables by exposing them to different levels of humidity.”
That’s from Whirlpool, a NA manufacturer, the rest say the same. Might be slightly cooler as it’s always on the bottom of the fridge, but the main selling point is higher humidity.
Some fridges have a vent opened with a slider for the crisper drawer. So items that don’t need protecting from overly drying out have the full circulation of the fridge which dries things out, or the slider is closed and the air isn’t circulating past and so the lettuce etc isn’t dried out.
