 Worst $ I've spent in a long time September 14, 2008
Molly White (**)
This product never would like down like it was supposed to, and the stem would spring up suddenely with such force that stuff in my fridge was knocked over and broken. For something made entirely of plastic, it's way over priced. Don't buy it.
 Better Than My last One But the Oxos Looks Better Designed August 5, 2007

I've used this (Chinese made) salad spinner for over two months.
Pros:
Okay, it's better than my previous Italian made spinner with the crank. Even though that one has a larger capacity than this KitchenAid, it was prone to getting unbalanced which the KitchenAid has yet to do. The dividers work for helping to spin dry herbs like cilantro, even when I just place it in one of the three divided compartments. No unbalance.
Cons:
Unlike my old one and the Oxo, the design of the KitchenAid does not allow me to easily wash or rinse items using the drying basket insert: the plunger in the center easily takes in water which I'd prefer not to get water inside. I was able to remove the plunger assembly although it did take some effort to remove it the first time. While I can live with accidentally locking the plunger while spinning the basket, it's annoying that the base of the bowl has a plastic ring with holes. I'm guessing the holes create a semi-seal to help hold the bowl in place during spinning. The down side is that water enters these holes during washing and the bowl must air dry overnight preventing me from just wiping it down and storing it away immediately.
I've noticed that the Oxo salad spinners are also available with a stainless bowl as well as the spinner assembly can be taken apart for cleaning. I'll probably be my next spinner.
