Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Zyliss Comfort Salad Spinner with Storage Lid, BlueCustomer Review: I USE IT EVERY DAY Summary: 5 Stars
I serve salad once or twice a day and am very finicky about fresh, clean, crisp greens.My husband bought the OXO salad spinner (the only one available in most of the local stores) when my previous Zyliss was lost in a move. I was disappointed from the beginning. The OXO spinner's action is inferior to the Zyliss, which spins in two directions and gets the greens much drier in less time. Also, the construction of the lid allows water to collect between two "layers" where it is impossible to wash properly or to dry, allowing mildew to grow. After two years of almost daily use, the push-down mechanism in the lid became completely inoperable and I had to discard the lid as useless. (I'm keeping the inner basket to plant summer bulbs in to make them easier to lift and store in the fall.) I have just purchased another Zyliss Salad Spinner from Amazon and was astounded to see that it is only half the price of the OXO. It arrived this week and I couldn't be happier with it. Sora Colvin
Description of Zyliss Comfort Salad Spinner with Storage Lid, BluePulling the cord in the lid of this salad spinner rotates the basket in two directions, drying greens quicker than spinners that only rotate in a single direction. The yo-yo-like action follows the same principal a spaniel uses when shaking off after his bath: the back and forth motion prevents droplets from being trapped in the folds of greens. (Conveniently, it also rewinds the pull-cord.) The basket measures 9-3/4 inches in diameter and 4-1/4 inches deep, ample capacity for family-size salads. It fits into a big transparent bowl made of light but rugged plastic that can be used to serve salads--or potato chips. A translucent, snap-on lid converts the bowl into an airtight storage container. --Fred Brack
