Review on ๐Ÿฅ— Cuisinart Green Salad Spinner: Efficiently Wash and Dry Fresh Greens! by Kevin Graham

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Watch out for that head screw!

I love Cuisinart products in general, but this one is not one of my favorites! Most spinners are more expensive, so I'll put up with that problem. I like its ability to rotate and drain the salad - it works well. The second time I used it the middle cap on top came off and I couldn't figure out what happened because it seemed attached the first time I used it. I tested it to see if anything is broken and if it works. I didn't see anything broken and it still worked but its function was a bit weakened. I found out later that there was a screw shank that didn't appear to have a screw head - where was it? I ripped up my freshly made salad and THAT WAS IT! Luckily the head of the screw is about 1" in diameter, quite thick and white! I doubt anyone will accidentally eat it. but centrifugal force causes it to sink to the bottom of the slingshot as it detachesโ€”under the lettuce leaves. Now I'll make sure it doesn't get into the future salad mix!

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • slightly wrinkled
