Zyliss 10.25-in. Easy Spin Salad Spinner, Green  Product Reviews

"It's quite attractive and it works very well. I don't think it holds a whole head of lettuce in one spin, however. I use it very often to quickly dry off herbs from my garden, and less often to dry a head of lettuce (in two batches). The spinning mechanism is very efficient -- the rope doesn't get caught and have to be rewound like on other salad spinners I've used. It gets 4 stars instead of 5 because I agree with another reviewer that the lid is difficult to clean."

"I'm really happy with this salad spinner. I chose it because it was a reasonable cost and my favourite colour. I love it for a million other reasons: It holds an entire head of lettuce (I've tried romaine and green leaf) with the perfect amount of necessary wiggle room. I use the parts separately while I do my initial lettuce rinse. I eat salads every day for lunch, and it is great to just grab my lettuce and go, instead of going through the tedious tasks of tearing, washing, drying every single day. Likewise, I love how economical and sanitary it is - no more paper or cloth towels! The spinner dries the lettuce extremely well. The "sudden stop" button is a must - that lettuce has some serious momentum! I call this my "salafuge." I have no complaints whatsoever. :)"

"Amazon claims this item is Swiss made. It is Chinese made. Seems to work fine but I would probably have bought a cheaper one if I knew ths one was Chinese made as well."

"This handy device works well to dry lettuce quickly so that now if I decide I get home too tired too cook I can make salad fast. The puul cord makes this work fun too. The only draw back is cleaning the cover. Water gets trapped and takes a while to dry properly. Otehrwise a neat little gadget."
