good purchase
Date: February 5, 2010
"I've had the salad spinner for a month now and I am very happy with it. There are two things I would improve. The inside basket became slightly warped after putting it in the dishwasher, but I am not certain I put it on the top rack (what is recommended) opposed to the bottom. Second, the top spinner piece is extremely difficult to pull apart to wash, although it can be done."

"I love my salad spinner! It is extremely durable and I love that it double duties as a salad keeper. My salad did stay fresh for a longer time!"

Have I really gone this long without one
Date: August 17, 2009
"I must admit, I was always skeptical and wondered why someone would buy another gadget just to do what I do by hand all the time and couldn't imagine that it'd be any good at all. Then when Cook's Illustrated recommended this one and I read reviews, I questioned my time consuming towel drying method. I finally broke down and got one in the middle of our CSA lettuce season. I don't know what I did before I had this! It's big enough to spin for a crowd but doesn't take up too much space in my kitchen. The clear bowl is also a great for serving and saving. (READ: One less dish to wash.)
This salad spinner is well designed and constructed. The instructions which came with it were clear and easy to use. It works extremely well, and has a good capacity for greens. Definitely a product I wouldn't hesitate to recommend! Love it! Get one!

Essential Kitchen MUST HAVE!
Date: August 11, 2009
"This salad spinner is as essential for anyones kitchen as a can opener is. Anybody who eats and prepares fresh greens knows that spinning the greens dry makes a crunchy wonderful salad. I use this almost everyday. A must have for ANY kitchen!"

great time-saver
Date: July 6, 2009
"this definitely makes salad washing faster - I hadn't used this in awhile b/c I usually buy bagged salad - and was reminded how nice it was. Only down side is it's bulky to store. But still worth it to have on-hand."

Easy salad spinner
Date: July 6, 2009
"Easy to use and works great. Only drawback is it's a pain to clean. It's top rack dishwasher safe, but I find I always have to handwash it."

Makes Salad Prep Easy!
Date: July 6, 2009
"I love making salads but I am not a fan of the rinsing / drying of the greens. The Salad Spinner makes lettuce prep and storage a breeze! I truly could not go back to the old way of doing things."

Salad Spinner

"This works great and I use it if I'm making a big salad. I don't use on a small one because it's kind of a pain to wash. (I'm afraid to put it in the dishwasher.)"

Spins me right round...
Date: July 3, 2009
"Does the task it sets out to do very well. The biggest trouble that we had was after laying it in the top rack of our dishwasher, the spherical shape distorted which makes spinning not work so well later on. If you are making a lot of salad, this is a very study product that has easy to use pump and brake."

Hands-free and easy!
Date: June 23, 2009
"I use this spinner every time I prepare a salad. Instead of wasting paper towels by soaking up water from rinsed lettuce, I toss the lettuce in the bowl and press the button and it does all of the work! And because it's so easy, I also have additional satisfaction that I saved money on buying a head of lettuce vs. the easy-prep bagged lettuce."

does the job (and it's fun)
Date: June 22, 2009
"boy, it is super fun to press this button. maybe even fun enough to be a motivational tool for dieters to eat more salad? also, a great tip i just tried, line the basket with paper towels, and you can successfully dry washed berries without pulverizing them. hello blueberry cobbler!
only drawback is cleaning--but i hate chores in general."

So easy, so great!
Date: June 21, 2009
"Such a simple little idea, yet works so well. This hands down beats a paper towel dry or hand shake of salad leaves. It's really surprising how much water you can get off the salad.
I love how easy this is to use, store, and clean.
I even use the bowl with the lid to bring salads with me to friends houses.
It's a great buy and would make a great gift as well."

Great Spinner
Date: June 20, 2009
"This is the best salad spinner I have ever owned. As in the OXO tradition, it is, ergonomically, very easy to use. It requires less time to remove more moisture than other spinners I have tried. It is a little large in size for storage, but I think the scale of it is important for the function, because more leaf surface is exposed. It's also quite easy to clean."

Fast and Easy

"This salad spinner is fast and effective. We weren't sure we needed a salad spinner when we registered but figured why not and added it to the list. Now I can't believe we used to make big salads without one."

"I will never live without a salad spinner again! I also use it for washing veggies that need soaked and then strained-just fill it up with water, and lift the basket."

oxo salad spinner
Date: June 19, 2009
"I never realized how necessary this product was until I got one as a wedding gift. It quickly gets all the moisture of the lettuce so the dressing sticks better. I can't believe I ever served a salad without spinning it first; no more soggy croutons. It is fun to use too... you can really get it going fast. My husband always want's to make the salad now because he thinks it is so fun to use the spinner!"
