Pros: easy to use, good quality, stylish bowl that can be used to serve
Cons: large/cumbersome to store
Summary: I'll start off by saying that I think Oxo makes great products. I have yet to find one of their products that was not good quality. This salad spinner is no exception. I do not eat salad a lot, maybe twice a month. However, I love gadgets and things ... read more

Pros: Large capacity, does its intended job well, multi-uses.
Cons: Rubber ring comes off, bulky, can be awkward to use.
Summary: I like Oxo. They make kitchen gadgets that work, look nice and, in my experience, last a fairly long time. When I was in the market for a new salad spinner I was happy to pick up this model. Overall, I am pleased with its ability to spin the excess ... read more

Pros: Cleans lettuce keeping it crisp. Versatile. Durable.
Cons: Nuisance to store and retrieve for use.
Summary: Background: I have always thought of fruitcake as something that gets passed around at Christmas time because no one wants it. I have had the same experience with salad spinners. On occasion I would hear from a friend that she received this ... read more

Pros: Easy to use, easy to clean.
Cons: Storing this can be a problem if your kitchen is small.
Summary: It's salad season again in our household, but one thing that keeps me from eating them often is the chore of getting the lettuce cleaned, dried and crisped up. Nothing more can ruin a good salad for me than reaching the bottom of the bowl, and finding a ... read more

Pros: Easy to use and delivers clean, delicious, dry salad greens!
Cons: Cumbersome to store in the refrigerator. Not a "multitasking" tool.
Summary: I've been buying salad out of a bag for years. It's not that I particularly like salad out of a bag, but as a single gal, I usually planned my meals on my drive home from work. Leftovers were things that padded my refrigerator until they became ... read more

Pros: Gets the lettuce dry - fast!
Cons: none really

Pros: Large size and easy pump. Can buy accessories also
Cons: Storing it takes some space
Summary: I love this thing! It takes a large quantity of lettuce and really spins it clean and dry.
Ever bring home, or cut your own lettuce or greens and find they are dirty? Or worse, bit into a salad with grit in it? A spinner will clean it better than ... read more

Pros: Easy to pump; it has a brake!; durable; decent-sized capacity
Cons: Hard to dry off
Summary: Ahh, salad. We've been dieting again, so lettuce is a handy thing to have around the house. We like to buy our lettuce at a local farm when possible, however, so it's always dirtier than those pre-washed salad baggies from the grocery store. (Okay, ... read more

Pros: Works for about a year.
Cons: Breaks - always!
Summary: The OXO salad spinner is a worthless piece of garbage. Fourth version and each one has a problem with the pump mechanism after a year or so. I have fixed them so many times I wonder if I have reached the definition of

Pros: None
Cons: everything
Summary: I had a Zyliss spinner which worked well until it broke and I thought I would try a diffrent brand. The Oxo seemed like a good design but when I brought it home and tried it it did not work at all. when you push down on the pump it pushes the salad

Pros: The spinning mechanism was easier on arthritic hands than the other models.
Cons: When the spinner mechanism mal-functions, there is no straight-forward or obvious solution.

Pros: Large enough to hold a family salad portion, gears are good
Cons: doesn't really dry the salad well. Expensive
Summary: I guess most people are happy with their OXO salad spinners so I seem to be the lone voice of "not completely satisfied". But I am not. I love salad and having a good salad spinner is right up there with a "good pot" for me. So first I fill the

Pros: Trendy gadget
Cons: Trendy gadget
Summary: The famous pump mechanism broke after a few energetic uses. The Oxo design has too many parts and pieces which can't be easily disassembled to clean or dry. This will eventually result in mold growth which isn't exactly sanitary. It's a great

Pros: easy to use
Cons: too many to list
Summary: I bought one and in a few months it locked up. I returned it to the store and got a new one. Less than a year later it broke. I would never expect plastic to last forever, but I would have expected it to last longer than it did. My 4 year old likes

Pros: Easy to use
Cons: Doesn't spin fast or completely dry greens
Summary: I seem to be the only reviewer not enthralled with this thing. Yes, the pump makes it easier to use than another brand I own with a crank/handle. But this one does spin as fast, and hence does not dry off the lettuce as well as my older but smaller
