Cinnamon Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Can anyone recommend a really good salad spinner to me? I bought mine on a whim last summer,mainly because its hot pink, but while it looks good it isn't really up to the job. I need something bigger & really,really spinny to deal with all the salad my garden is producing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 mines really old so can't reccommend one, I have grown cut and come again salad in pots - the sun and rain has brought them one - fresh and yummy and good for you. Will keep eye out for one as I want to update mine as its abit tatty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 I am looking at the OXO Good Grips one on Amazon, which looks good. They do 2 sizes & its down to £16, plus they are offering me a trial of their 'Prime' service for a month,which gives me free next day delivery I like the Good Grips range,so am tempted...........

sadietoo Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Mine is a Zyliss one...it was quite expensive, but I'm worth it!!!! Seriously...I had it to replace an existing Zyliss Spinner which I'd had for donkey years before I managed to bounce the bowl off our new kitchen tiles !!! I've had the new one for about three years now, and it seems really sturdy and is quite efficient (but maybe not quite as good as my old one) . I looked at the Good Grips ones too but the Zyliss one has a flat top which meant it would store more easily.... http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B0001NQ11S/ref=sr_1_olp_15?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1246641044&sr=1-15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Try Lakeland or even Tupperware! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Palmer Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 I have a Tupperwareware one. It must be over 6 years old now, works well and still looks as good as new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 I got one from a cheap shop which is still doing the job after a few years. My friend just puts hers in a tea towel and spins it round her head outside. Works well until she lets go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitchens Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I have an OXO good grips salad spinner. One of my better purchases and should hopefully last a long time. I have the smaller one of the two and for the 3 of us its just right. I highly recommend it Plus - the lid does store away flat as there is a little button you can press when the spinner button is pressed down.

Cinnamon Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 Mine arrived today & its really good It even has a little thingy that you pop in so that you can store it with the plunger bit down too. I think it will be a useful addition to the kitchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 my blacksmith gave me two home grown lettuces covered in wonderful wildlife last week and I forgot what real salad taste like...they were really organic and once I de bugged them the salad spinner I have was so useful to be lifting to soak it etc I unfortunately got mine on holiday in France but I have seen similar ones here..Really keeps it fresh too The chickens had a lot of the outer leaves indie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
