Product Description For fun and easy salad preparation, try the OXO GOOD GRIPS Salad Spinner. Simply press the soft, non-slip knob to start the basket spinning. Easy, one-handed operation makes this Spinner a pleasure to use, and a built-in brake stops the Salad Spinner so you can unload it. A non-slip ring keeps the bowl steady on the countertop, and the basket and bowl can be used separately. Top-rack dishwasher safe
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

oxo August 28, 2008 I was very disappointed in this item. My daughter has one and loves it but the one I received did not work and I had to send it back.
Salad Spinner August 28, 2008 Love this product. It is so easy to spin and dry salad greens with one push of the button, it makes making a fresh salad a joy.
More than just a little salad spinner, easy to use and clean August 27, 2008 This is an amazingly convenient little unit. It make quick work of salad for one or two, cleans easily, and takes up little cabinet space. Also makes cleaning fresh herbs a snap! This will rinse sand, dirt, critters and debris from a handful of mint, lemon balm, or basil making their use!) Imagine mint tea or juleps without grit, lemon balm tea without mystery additives, and basil cleaned and dried enough for fresh tomatoes and olive oil.
Fill the bowl and soak tired greens in cold water. Use the strainer to drain the water then spin the greens for a much improved crispy salad. You can even wash and soak and drain dried beans in this, leaving dirt behind.
I keep finding more uses for this small version, but its larger cousin gets almost as much use in as many different ways.
Worked well but not durable August 18, 2008 Used this for about 7 months. The bottom part wasn't as sturdy as we had hoped. It cracked and leaked water from the pressure of operating the spinner. Can't hold a good amount of water without bending out of shape and almost breaking. After about a year of moderate/occasional use, the spinning mechanism finally came to a grinding halt. I'm looking for a sturdier product now.
Good Job On Salads August 17, 2008 We eat a salad nearly every day and like the convenience of the bagged salads. However, with the concern over contaminates in produce such as salads we had begun washing the greens...something we had not done previously. It has been difficult to remove all the water and the result has been a somewhat watered down salad when the dressing is added. This salad spinner does a good job of removing the excess water.
