I'd buy it again
By Cheers
I bought this because I'd been wanting to try a salad spinner, but didn't want to spend a lot. I've used it several times, and it works quite well; dries quickly and doesn't seem to bruise the produce. And- I then can use the bowl for the salad!

The pull tucks neatly into the lid, lid seems snug to the spinner, plenty of spaces for the water to drain through, and the strainer sits enough away from the surrounding bowl to keep the produce from touching the water that's spun out.

My only concern is the material that the bowl is made from seems like it might crack easily if dropped. Otherwise, no complaints on this purchase.

UPDATE:
SO - it's over 2 years later, and my bargain salad spinner is still one of my favorite kitchen gadgets. Bowl hasn't cracked, pull hasn't jammed. Everything has held up wonderfully- I'd definitely purchase this one again or as a gift.

Buying it again....
By S. White
When I received an Oxo brand salad spinner as a gift, I foolishly gave away the trusty MIU salad spinner that I had owned for years.

To my dismay, the Oxo spinner didn't spin anywhere near as fast as the MIU spinner... meaning lettuce leaves were still covered in water. And to add insult to injury, the Oxo spinner was clunky, hard to store, and despite the size, didn't fit anywhere near as many leaves of lettuce.

Needless to say, salads because an infrequent visitor at my dinner table and my kids were whining for more salad.

So, I dumped the Oxo salad spinner and bought another brand of salad spinner which was on sale for cheap. My bad. It was slightly better than the Oxo, but nowhere near as good as my old MIU spinner.

I couldn't find another MIU anywhere... and I was going broke buying packages of prewashed lettuce.

Then and one day it occured to me to check Amazon.com and, BINGO!,

Thanks, Amazon! I am going to save soooooo much money now that I don't have to buy prewashed lettuce anymore.

Liked it so much we bought another!
By K. Avallone
We liked this spinner that we had to get another. Our first one, that was many years old, finally met it's demise after dropping to the ceramic floor. It was bound to happen.
We went to Bed Bath and Beyond and looked, purchased and returned one of those new fancy OXO ones. Found this on line and ordered it.
It works beautifully.
