This is the best salad spinner by far! First, the pump is so easy to use to get it spinning really fast. No cranking involved and even my mother with terrible arthritis can use it easily. And the brake is a nice feature so you don't have to wait for the spinner to slow down. Also, the bowl that catches the water is fully self-contained, so you don't have to spin it in the sink. My old spinner had holes in the bottom and if you forgot that and spun it on the counter, you got water everywhere! It is sturdy and has a no-skid bottom, which is a really nice touch. The lid fits nice and tight, so you can wash and spin your lettuce and put the whole thing in the fridge to chill the salad. All around the BEST salad spinner I have ever used.

Cook's Friend! OXO you have a winner with this Salad Spinner. I grew lots of fresh butter lettuce this spring and I have been picked it for so many days. It is so easy to get dirt off all the leaves with this salad spinner. I know that I am feeding excellent produce in my household with this product. A must for all cooks!

Awesome! Love love love my salad spinner. I grow my own lettuce, so I need to wash it really well before using. I love that I can spin off all the water before storing it in the fridge, which makes it keep up to two weeks. This is a must-have item in my kitchen.

Absolutely love this! Removes all the water leaving nice crisp lettuce.

In my opinion a salad spinner is a must have, and the OXO brand is very sturdy. I use mine every day I like that it is made of thick plastic and has a grip ring on the bottom of the bowl so it does not move around a lot.

We eat salads on daily basis. This products helped keep the lettuce dry and crunchy.

Great salad spinner, very reliable.

Great spinner!

Such a great product! My kids are the ones that usually spin the salad because this makes it fun. It's easy for them to push the spinner down and I love that I can stop it if they get a little over excited. It's easy to rinse out and then it's ready for next time. I also love to use the clear bowl at parties.

I cannot live in the summer without this. We grow our own lettuce and a lot of our own veggies. It is so simple to go out to our garden with the mesh insert and rinse with the garden house. Come inside, cut up some of the veggies and retoss. Spin to get the water out and you have a salad!

Wonderful for not only lettuce and spinach, but herbs and sliced or chopped veggies. The water is spun off so there is no puddle left behind. I also use it for tomatoes when I don't want them to be so sloppy. This spinner is the best design I have used!

I have had this product for over 7 years and I love it. Spins the lettuce dry!

There are few kitchen tools that I would say have revolutionized my cooking life, but this salad spinner is one of them. It's like the designers set out to correct every possible concern someone could have with a salad spinner and did so successfully. Rather than pull a cord or crank a handle, you just push down to spin -- gravity is working in your favor. Rather than have to use one arm to hold the spinner in place, grippy rubber on the bottom does it for you. Rather than have to wait while the spinner comes to a complete stop, you just press the brake. One of my favorite features is that the spinning bowl is attractive enough to use as the serving bowl. And if you have leftovers you can just pop on the top and put it in the fridge. I'm not one to advocate waste, but if you don't have one of these, it's worth getting rid of your old salad spinner and replacing it with this model. You will never regret it.

i got this on a whim and am so glad that i did - it really works. i tend to buy spinach or romaine lettuce and chop it up into 1" bite size pieces then wash it. this really does work when it comes to getting out the water. the first time i spin it i usually wind up with about 1" of water at the bottom, then i spin it once or twice more. it also helps the lettuce last longer by insulating it a little for the cold fridge and humidity. i recommend this product!

This is one product everyone should have in their kitchen. What a time saver! With the emphasis on eating healthier the OXO salad spinner makes cleaning your salad greens and veggies a snap. I like the pump feature for spinning. The bowl serves as a container after you rinse and spin the excess water out and you are able to store it in the fridge if you are not using it right away. This salad spinner has come a long way from the one I used years ago. The pump surpassed the string-pull mechanism, the break lets you control when to stop the spinning, I would recommend this product to all my friends, we are always looking for things to make cooking easier.
