If you love salads but hate the prep, get this. You will wonder how you ever got along without it!
I was introduced to OXO tools a few years ago when I used one of their peelers. Since then I have become an avid OXO devotee and own many of their products. But my favorite of them all is the Good Grips OXO Salad Spinner. I adore leafy lettuce but always found washing it to be such a chore that on some days I would just skip the salad altogether. I've avoided making salads for a long time because of the preparation time. I had an older salad spinner, but it was the kind you had to turn, and cleaning it afterwards always seemed to take a long time. This spinner is a huge improvement over any I've used before. Believe it or not --- I actually enjoy washing greens with this device and use it every day. Using the best tool available makes any task more satisfying, and this is the best of the best of salad spinners. Have no doubt, this is a purchase you will be glad you made, every time you use it. And you will want to use it!

I've found that washing the lettuce and draining the excess water from the bowl, then refrigerating the lettuce in the spinner before spinning yields crispy greens. I have found this is a good thing to do early in the day, then just a quick spin later for a fast salad.
One easy push and it spins on its own and it does not move around at all on the counter. I have found that it takes a couple spins to dry them the way I like, but while the greens are spinning, you can be chopping up other salad ingredients.
Also, you can lock the handle in the "down" position and use this spinner to store the unused greens in the fridge. This eliminates for another bowl to be used as a "lettuce saver". I've had leaf lettuce in mine for several days, and it is still crisp and fresh. Since buying this remarkable spinner, I've had salad every night. And enjoyed every minute of it, preparation included!
