Good Grips Salad Spinner (10.5-in.) by OXO

My family and I are big salad eaters and I wash a variety of fresh greens daily. I had lived with one of those flimsy plastic salad spinners for years, so I was very excited when I read a recent review of the OXO stainless spinner in a cooking magazine. The review was extremely reliable and I found the spinner to be every bit as good as promised--maybe even a bit better.

The stainless steel bowl is substantial and sturdy and includes a non-slip rubber base which keeps the bowl from sliding around on your counter. The overall design is both attractive and functional, and the spinning mechanism is very easy to operate. There is a convenient button which brings the spinning basket to a quick halt and a clever locking switch that keeps the spinning mechanism stable when not in use. The best part is that you can dress & serve the salad in the lovely stainless steel bowl--reducing dirty dishes (oh, yeah!). My only complaint is that the mesh basket is a bit flimsy considering the rather hefty $50.00 price tag (I wonder if replacement baskets are available?). Aside from this one small flaw, I would highly recommend this product!

This is a wonderful salad spinner. At first, I thought it was a little pricey. However, after using it, it is well worth the money. The spinner is smooth, and the rubber bottom keeps it from slipping on the counter. I also love the fact that I can store my salad in it as well. I would buy this product again!

This unit is an excellent buy. I don't like buying the pre-washed ready to go
salads. They are to expensive. I like to buy green leaf, red leaf and romaine
lettuces. I clean them in the salad spinner then tear the leaves into smaller bite size pieces and combine them all in a zip lock bag. I have salads every day for a whole week.

The spinner gives you a nice and dry product. Well made and easy to clean.

It's worth the money.

I was quite upset when after 5 years our plastic salad spinner bit the dust. It had taken a beating with all the use we gave it. But, I was elated to see that OXO improved the product by making the main bowl stainless steel. It retains the cool of the frig longer than the plastic one. Plus, the rubberized plastic bottom is far superior to the rubberized plastic ring on the plastic bowl. I really like this new product.

I love my new salad spinner. It works super well and I love having a stainless steel bowl build right in to store my salad in and keep it fresh. I'm giving my old plastic one to Goodwill!
