Oxo Good Grips, Salad Spinner, With Patented One Handed Pump Mechanism, Built In Brake & Non Skid Bottom, Easy To Clean & Store.

Amazon.com Review
Washing and drying leafy vegetables has never been simpler or more fun than with this gadget. One hand is all you need to press the soft, cushioned knob to start the spinning; when the built-in brake is applied and the job is done, the basket and bowl can be taken apart and used separately. The knob locks down for easy storage, and the spinner is dishwasher-safe. Use this tool with lettuce, raw spinach, broad-leafed herbs, and greens--they end up clean and oh-so-dry, and the drier your leaves, the better salad dressings will adhere and the less mushy your sandwich bread will become. Puddles at the bottom of your salad bowl disappear... Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

Good product May 11, 2008
The Oxo Good Grips salad spinner is a good product. It is sturdy and easy to use as well as easy to disassemble and wash. The basket is removable and doubles as a collander. The bowl could also be used as a salad bowl.

Top of the line May 11, 2008
SoftWorks Salad Spinner Love the product.......Spins like crazy but doesn't move on the counter, very sturdy. Can use the clear container to serve the salad.....I'm very happy with my decision to spend a little more and get the top of the line salad spinner.

Great little spinner May 9, 2008
This product is really easy to use and does exactly what its supposed to. We have a share in an organic farm through our local CSA and you wouldn't believe how many bags of fresh organic lettuces and greens we get each year. It goes without saying that anytime you're getting produce that was picked less then 24 hours ago at the farm, you're also getting lots of nice farm soil also. This little beauty makes quick work of our greens leaving them dry, and in good shape (not all bruised or mangled). Plus if you've got the fridge space it makes a great storage device for the freshly washed and dried greens since the few drops of water left will drip down and keep them from either getting soggy, or dried out.

disappointed May 8, 2008
I purchased this to replace a 20 yr.old plastic spinner with a crank-top. I wanted to upgrade b/c the plastic was getting stained and looked terrible plus I wanted to try this push-down type that had such good reviews. Works just ok, here is what I do not like about it- * clear plastic top cracked after just a few times using for no apparent reason,although I can still use it there was no reason for this as it was not dropped or misused *the push down mechanism does not create much of a spin and i find i need to push down MANY times to get the lettuce dry enough, my old crank spinner really spun and the greens were much drier without so much effort, * the top is a two layered plastic with an open space between the layers which is impossible to dry, so i end up putting it in the cupboard with it still wet from using, i don't know why but this bothers me... also it is very hard to place the interior basket inside the outer bowl correctly, it needs to be on just right or it doesn't work, need to keep adjusting it............all in all this looks great .. but my old white plastic 20 plus year old one worked much better...... For some reason i seem to have bad luck with the oxo brand, i know they get great reviews but i have purchased several and have always been unhappy for some reason, i don't know why i keep trying. I bought some black plastic measuring spoons and cups and within 6 months the area which said what size it was totally smudged off so you did'nt know what size they were. and they were much for expensive than a cheap metal set.

Don't let the name "Little Salad" fool you! April 30, 2008
I purchased the Mini salad spinner because it was all I could afford at the moment but I was so surprised when I actually got it and used it. It sure packs a punch for a little thing. I easily spinned 4 salad servings in it. That's right, salads enough for 4 people in the small version! But that's not even the best part. I love this little gadget and there will never be another watery dressed salad for me. It spins everything nice and dry, it has a non slip footprint which I love, and the best part is how well the lettuce keeps in it. I am not exaggerating when I say it kept chopped lettuce (almost) as good as new for 3 weeks! I had it in the back of the fridge and forgot about it, when I pulled it out the lettuce still looked better than that of the lettuce found at some restaurants these days! It only had a little browning - that occurs anytime when lettuce is cut with a stainless steel knife blade. I remedied that with my new OXO lettuce knife. But this spinner really would keep your lettuce fresh and crisp for a week if need be. Especially since it comes with a handy lid! After you are done spinning, take the spinner off and put the regular lid on and you can store it in the fridge. I'm sure that would cut down on a lot of waste, and you would get your money's worth out of that head of lettuce. It keeps it longer than that but I'm sure no one would want 3 week old lettuce. I will gladly buy the full size one of these days, but I can't see the need yet, as the small one does so well for me.
