OXO Good Grips Large Salad Spinner & Vegetable Washer (6.22 Qt)

A new spin on our classic Salad Spinner. Before the introduction of the OXO Good Grips Salad Spinner in 1998, crank and pull-tab lettuce spinners were considered high-end kitchen tools—some people even used the spin cycle of their washing machine to dry greens. Our easy-to-use, one-handed pump transformed the Salad Spinner into an everyday fruit and vegetable cleaner. Nearly 20 years later, we revisited the original with smart updates—like the patented brake—while keeping the features people love and staying true to the original inspiration: a children’s top. With a modern design that fits contemporary kitchens and an improved brake that stops the basket instantly, we think you’ll love this upgraded classic. Dry salad greens fast with a simple press of the soft, non-slip pump. The non-slip base keeps the bowl steady on your countertop while you spin, and the built-in brake button makes it easy to stop and unload. The basket doubles as a colander, and the lid comes apart for easy cleaning. All parts are dishwasher safe. Bowl capacity: 6.22 qt / 5.9 L Basket capacity: 4.4 qt / 4.1 L Dishwasher safe. Washing and drying leafy vegetables has never been simpler or more fun than with this gadget. One hand is all you need to press the soft, cushioned knob to start the spinning; when the built-in brake is applied and the job is done, the basket and bowl can be taken apart and used separately. The knob locks down for easy storage, and the spinner is dishwasher-safe. Use this tool with lettuce, raw spinach, broad-leafed herbs, and greens--they end up clean and oh-so-dry, and the drier your leaves, the better salad dressings will adhere and the less mushy your sandwich bread will become. Puddles at the bottom of your salad bowl disappear... Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro For fun and easy salad preparation, try the OXO GOOD GRIPS Salad Spinner.
