Product Description

This easy pull stainless steel salad spinner could possibly turn carnivores into vegetarians, it's so simple and fun to use. The foolproof, retractable cord mechanism works with the unique glide wheel to smoothly and efficiently spin greens and other food free of water, leaving them clean and ready for tossing with other salad ingredients, for sautéing or adding to other dishes. A smooth, no-rib basket is gentle enough to use with fresh berries. Dressings will no longer be watery, and everything you spin will come out drier.

I had high expectations for this salad spinner, but it fails in 3 areas. First, it is nearly impossible to get the spinner to go fast enough to get the water off of the lettuce! That defeats the original purpose of this device. Second, it's rather small - you must wash and spin the "average" head of lettuce in halves. Third, although the outer shell is all stainless steel, the handle and the internal basket are just inexpensive plastic, just like any other spinner. The handle in my new unit has popped off a few times. I don't expect this spinner to last more than a year or two. I would avoid this item.

This salad spinner is great for a very small head of lettuce, but cannot hold enough for me to buy a large one. This is a problem for us because we eat a lot of lettuce and can't hold a lot for a later time if we want.

The other problem is that I was dumb and put the plastic lid that came with it in the dishwasher and it shrunk; it doesn't fit anymore. Other than that, it is a good spinner-- good system, and is easy to use. Plus, it is nice looking, which is always a bonus. The bowl is useful as a back up mixing bowl or a serving bowl if necessary.

It was only about $14 more than the model under it but was eligble for super saver shipping so in reality was maybe $8 over the price of the lower model - well worth the cost difference. My wife is a vegetarian and was thrilled to get such a well designed salad spinner. I would highly recommend this purchase you'll never need to buy another one.
