Compared the to ancient one I finally tossed this works like a dream. It has the push down type spinner like Suzy mentions above. Good luck finding the spinner of your dreams :) Robin in SoCalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5073185635856849089.post-2926627874505741102011-11-06T15:23:54.594-08:002011-11-06T15:23:54.594-08:00I have an OXO, it's old, but I love it. It...I have an OXO, it's old, but I love it. It's the kind with the pump down lid that makes it spin. I always hand wash mine, but I think it's dishwasher safe. I like that it's very sturdy and has lasted quite a long time for me. <br /><br />My mom has one that has the crank on the lid for spinning, but I don't like it. I find it to be too cheap. <br /><br />I really want to find a vintage french one that's basically a wire basket that you use to rinse the lettuce in then you take it outside and do the old pitching spin with the arm to spin dry. But I think my chances are low of finding one of those here in Ohio. <br /><br />Best of luck finding one that you like!Chiot's Runhttp://www.chiotsrun.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5073185635856849089.post-11879509288996543862011-11-06T06:41:42.646-08:002011-11-06T06:41:42.646-08:00I see salad spinners all the time at thrift stores...I see salad spinners all the time at thrift stores. They have all been in working condition too (I have a feeling the previous owners just didn't use them much so they chucked them). Better yet, they cost like $2 each, so if they break eventually, you can just get another one.Green Zebra Market Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10030147550078130741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5073185635856849089.post-67521694955490329762011-11-06T01:29:34.078-07:002011-11-06T01:29:34.078-07:00I've been checking them out and it seems the O...I've been checking them out and it seems the Oxo one is the best--but oh my---$30 for a salad spinner???<br />Of course, I blew $10 on a cheapie, and it only lasted a few weeks before the lid quit working right.....<br />I checked out Amazon, and it got over 600 positive reviews. Oxo is "common" enough that you should be able to find it locally.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122524042294993949noreply@blogger.com
