Farberware Pro Small Salad Spinner with Pump Lid, 3.16 Qt Lettuce Spinner and Fruit Washer Bowl with Colander Basket, One-Handed Operation, Nonslip Base

I recently purchased this salad spinner during Prime Day, and it has quickly become one of my most valued kitchen tools. This spinner replaces a smaller, 16-year-old model from Ikea that served me well but could not keep up with my current needs. One of the standout features of this salad spinner is its ability to clean freshly harvested garden produce with remarkable efficiency. Leafy greens, such as lettuce, often hide soil that can be difficult to remove without damaging the leaves. I typically give them a quick rinse outside to remove most of the dirt before placing them in the spinner filled with ice water. The results have been impressive; not only does it remove an astonishing amount of debris, but it does so without bruising the greens. In terms of performance, I was skeptical about how well the spinning mechanism would function compared to my old hand-crank unit. However, I was pleasantly surprised by its speed —just a few pushes and the spinner operates at a level that far exceeds my old model. This has reduced my prep time and helps me enjoy garden fresh salads without the hassle. The design is user-friendly and straightforward, making it easy to operate even for those who may not be accustomed to using kitchen gadgets. The quality of materials used feels durable and robust, promising longevity that justifies its price point. Overall, this salad spinner represents excellent value for anyone who frequently prepares salads or cleans garden produce. Its efficient cleaning capabilities, impressive spinning speed, and thoughtful design make it a worthwhile investment for both novice cooks and seasoned chefs alike. I highly recommend this product for anyone looking to elevate their salad preparation experience.

This bowl works great and I feel as though it helps get a majority of the moisture off of my lettuce and other things I need to wash. I will be handwashing it so I am not sure if it is dishwasher safe. It is quite stable and it spins great. It is a little bulkier than I thought but it fits where I need it to go. The bowl on the outer portion does seem durable and will not break easily if dropped from a short distance.

**I didn’t buy this for lettuce, I use it as a mini washing machine** This salad spinner is amazing. No more losing masks in the wash! I bought this hoping I could use it as a mini washing machine. Originally I wanted it for small laundry items. I figured it could at least wash a single dress if I needed it to. You just toss in the clothing item/items, fill it up with water, add your detergent, pop the lid on, and press the button. It stays spinning by itself at a nice speed for around 60 seconds when there’s water in it. After 60 seconds as the spinning slows down, I press it again so it starts spinning faster. Repeat this 5 times. Then I empty out the water in the sink, rinse it, fill it back up with new water, and let it run for another 3 minutes (3 button presses) Just drain out the water again and rinse your item under the sink if you suspect there’s still detergent on it. Give it one last spin with no water in there to dry the items. It’ll spin longer this time since there’s no water slowing it down, but it will also wiggle a little since there’s not much weighing it down anymore. Then I just squeeze the item as dry as I can, and let it hang dry in the bathroom. It’s PERFECT for washing masks. It only takes about 10 minutes and then you just hang them up to dry. You can wash whatever you want in it, as long as it fits. It can fit 10+ face masks. Probably about the same amount for panties, around 10 pairs. It can fit a pair of 3XL men’s basketball shorts. 2 pairs of leggings. Just basic small loads of laundry or a single clothing item. This was the largest salad spinner I could find on Amazon so I went with it. Works perfectly. It’s perfect if you don’t have a washing machine and need to wash some emergency clothes. I have no idea how it works with salad, but it must work pretty well since it’s working perfect as a mini washing/drying machine. Easy to clean. Very Easy to use. Really sturdy. The actual lid doesn’t lock but it doesn’t need to since it’s sturdy. And there’s no water spout to drain the water, but I couldn’t find a big one that came with a spout connected.. just take out the basket and dump out the water, easy peasy.

I had been wanting this for awhile (for husband) because we have organic greens to wash and this makes it a lot easier. Someone in my family told me this was a good one. She was right - it is built well and it spins the water out easily. My husband really likes it - so far we are only using it to spin out garden greens for salad. It has made the washing and rinsing to dry out the salad much better. I recommend it. You just pump it up and it spins pretty fast for a few minutes and it's not difficult. Sometimes he leaves it sitting upright to air dry sometimes and it has been humid. I noticed underneath there is a green silicone or rubber seal that has black mold growing underneath...between the clear bucket and the seal. I am going to try and soak it in bleach to see if I can get rid of that. I already tried scrubbing. I might try leaving it out in the sunlight. It's not a lot of mold but definitely the seal. I have had the item less than 6 mths. I still think it's a good product but it needs to be thoroughy dried I guess. I have not put it in the dish washer. One thing I can't stand about silicone - like silicone caulking..is this exact issue where mold gets in underneath. I have not had that problem with regular caulking. A separate issue, I know but similar I think. I was surprised to see black mold beginning to grow on the green seal underneath this spinner. It doesn't bother him though. If I figure out how to remove it I will update. I have not tried citric acid either.

Great salad spinner - great price - fast shipping! Works smoothly and easily. If you have a garden like us, use the basket to collect your lettuce.

LOVE! Simple mechanics. Practical in it's use. Works every time. We use it a lot and it's going strong

Surprisingly I really liked this. I have always used the alternative type that you spin. But needed this in a pinch as the other kind wasnt available. This worked great and was nicely compact and fit great in my cupboard.

This works so well at getting leafy greens dry. Primarily we use it for spinach, but I am interested in how it will work for fruit as well, like whether it will get thrown off balance or not. Easy to use and easy to clean.

Excelente tamaño y funciona muy bien!!

Mine was broken I waited a few weeks then it arrived with a crack so I don't no how it performed

This product is worth the extra money in my opinion, its not flimsy, its the largest i could find and does the job well!! The knob broke on my last salad spinner, i think this can last my lifetime

Seca super bem, rapidinho. Seca bastante folhas de uma vez. Sem dúvida um excelente investimento.
