I used to have a salad spinner that had a cord that you pulled. It broke and I went looking for a better solution. This is it. I would recommend this product in a heartbeatSave on paper towels. Salads fast and easy to make.This is such a better way than a colander to wash and strain your vegetables and fruits.I have used this spinner for a couple of months. I washed and spun delicate lettuces, hardy kale even smaller fruits and veggies. It's to use, and the basket stays balanced . The inner basket seems a little flimsy but has held up well so far.This spinner works great. The wuality is very good. This one was priced less than others. It was nicer than i expected.Great salad spinner which is easy to clean. It’s a bit bulky but great for family salad days. It wrings out excess water from produce better than my last salad spinner. Overall very happy with this one.The salad spinner is the best I’ve ever used! it’s strong and sturdy and easy to clean!It did a good job, but it does want to move across the counter a bit when you're spinning it.Does what it saysPrefectWhat I love about this salad spinner is that it is very easy to clean and all parts can be cleaned and dried. I did have another spinner that couldn’t be taken apart for cleaning so mould was an issue in some hard to reach places. The basket is large and seems to be made of very durable plastic. Before buying this one I had a one that was made in Germany, which was just as easy to clean but the basket was very flimsy and pieces started breaking off not too long after purchasing it. One thing that some might find annoying is that it does squeak when using it but for me it’s not an issue.This is exactly what I am looking for. It is easy to use and clean. The material is sturdy. It is surprisingly made in Italy. I have been using it every day for my salad. I love it.This salad spinner is great and there is no moldy smell after I use it. The plastic container where you place the veggies and salad in is made of really good plastic. I like the fact that I can put a big amount of lettuce in this salad spinner. The only downfall is that the handle could have been designed better. It’s not as sturdy as the other ones I have looked at so this is why I gave it only 4 stars. If the company improves on this element, then it’s 5 stars for me but until then, it’s only 4 stars.
