I’m not a fan of tons of different tools for every little kitchen job but I could not live without this salad spinner. I have owned an OXO salad spinner for decades and have used it for many different foods. Spin lettuce dry in seconds!  Wash your veggies and spin dry before you chop them. Same for berries-yes even delicate raspberries won’t crush when using this spinner. I love the new design. I have rheumatoid arthritis and even when my hands are hurting I can still use the spinner because of the large flat button you use to make it spin. And the bowl and strainer are a much thicker material than my old one. Very sturdy. Don’t hesitate to get this most valuable addition to your kitchen.
