I don't like putting melons in my fridge.

Hi

Could you please offer me a suitable word for the underlined phrase? Is the yellow part correct English?

I don't like putting melons in my fridge. It gets filled with its aroma, affecting the smell of every other item.

Thanks,

Tom

PS: By the way, is gets filled natural English here?
