I was so excited to get a chance to review the OXO Salad Spinner! I've been wanting one for quite a while, and I'm so glad I now have it! It is super easy to use. I was able to use only finger to push on the plunger (although I would normally use more than that!) I love the sudden stop feature, as well as the locking mechanism. I like that I can fill the bowl with water and swish my greens with the spinner, empty the bowl, and then use the spinner to dry the greens. The bowl is pretty enough to use for my finished salad. I'm definitely sold on this product!
