Product Information
One-Touch OXO Salad Spinner: Did you know that OXO invented the one-touch salad spinner? Its one-handed pump gives you maximum drying of lettuce with minimum effort
What Makes the OXO Salad Spinner OXO Better: This salad spinner has been designed to be the best - from the one-touch press to pump with force to the patented brake to stop the basket immediately with a simple press. And the non-skid base keeps it firmly in place
Store Salad Spinner Neatly After Use: When you're done using the spinner as a fruit and vegetable cleaner, press the pump handle down, then slide the storage lock into place. This holds the pump flush with the lid for stacking and storing
Multi-Tasker Not Just For Lettuce: The OXO salad spinner doubles as a vegetable and fruit strainer, and as a serving bowl. Spin lettuce, herbs, beans or fruit. Or use it for meal prep as a lettuce keeper - wash your lettuce before dinner, pop it in the fridge and take it out when ready to serve
Lid Comes Apart for Easy Clean: The lid comes apart on this salad spinner, so moisture won't build up. All parts are dishwasher safe - top rack is recommended

Frequently Asked Questions
How many kitchen tools does this actually replace?
The OXO Salad Spinner replaces a colander, a salad spinner, a mixing bowl, a storage container, and a serving bowl. For a minimalist kitchen, that is one product doing the work of five, freeing up significant cabinet and counter space.
Does it really stack flat in a small cabinet?
Yes. The storage lock flattens the pump handle flush with the lid, so the bowl stacks neatly with other dishes. This is a key design feature for anyone trying to keep a small kitchen visually calm.
Is the design neutral enough to leave on the counter permanently?
The clear bowl with a clean white lid and minimal branding blends with most kitchen palettes, including white, wood, black, and stone finishes. Many minimalist cooks leave it out as the only visible prep tool.
Does the non-skid base leave marks on stone or wood counters?
The base is designed to grip without scratching. It holds the bowl steady during use but does not scuff typical countertop materials like quartz, granite, marble, or sealed wood.
Can I disassemble it for a truly deep clean?
Yes. The lid comes apart completely, and every component is top-rack dishwasher safe. This matters for minimalists because tools that hide moisture and grow mold are the first to be purged from a clean kitchen.
I live in a 400-square-foot studio. Will this fit in my kitchen?
The 6.22 quart bowl has a relatively small footprint and stacks flat, so it works well in studios, galley kitchens, and shared dorm spaces where every inch counts.
Will the bulk 4-pack and 12-pack options create clutter for a small household?
The bulk packs are intended for caterers, cafés, and large families. A single-person household typically only needs one unit, but the bulk options exist for those who want to standardize across multiple prep stations.
Is this a good replacement for my plastic mixing bowl collection?
For salad and vegetable prep specifically, yes. You can wash, spin, store, and serve from the same bowl, which means you can let go of the dedicated salad bowl, the colander, and the plastic container you used for prepped greens.
How does this compare to a traditional metal colander?
A metal colander only strains. It does not dry, store, or serve. The OXO Spinner combines all of those functions in a single object, which is closer to a minimalist's ideal of one tool per job.
Is a salad spinner more useful than a vegetable peeler in a minimalist kitchen?
If you eat raw vegetables and leafy greens regularly, a spinner gets used almost daily, while a peeler sits idle for long stretches. For most minimalist home cooks, the spinner delivers a better return on the space it occupies.
I want fewer plastic items. Is this a sustainable choice?
It replaces multiple single-use plastic bags, paper towels, and disposable containers over its lifetime. All parts are reusable, dishwasher safe, and built for daily use, which is the core of a low-waste kitchen.
Is the clear plastic going to look cheap or yellow over time?
The bowl is made from durable, BPA-free plastic designed to resist clouding with normal dishwasher use. The lid and handle use a clean white finish that holds up well in everyday kitchens.
Will it actually stay on my counter or will I hide it in a cabinet?
Because it doubles as a serving bowl and storage container, most users find a reason to keep it visible. It is genuinely useful at every stage of a meal, which is the test of a minimalist staple.
How do I wash and dry lettuce in the OXO Good Grips Salad Spinner?
Rinse your lettuce under cold running water, place the leaves in the spinner basket, add water to the bowl if needed for a second rinse, then press the pump a few times to spin. Press the brake button to stop the basket instantly, lift out the basket, and pour out any remaining water. Your greens are ready to serve or store.
How do I clean and disassemble the lid?
Press the release buttons on the lid to separate the pump mechanism from the bowl cover. All components, including the basket, bowl, and lid parts, are top-rack dishwasher safe. For a quick hand wash, separate the parts and wash them in warm soapy water, then let them air dry fully before reassembling to prevent hidden moisture.
Can I wash and store other vegetables besides lettuce?
Yes. The spinner works well for herbs like parsley and cilantro, spinach, arugula, kale, broccoli florets, and other sturdy produce. For very delicate herbs, use short, gentle pumps to avoid bruising.
Does it fit in a standard refrigerator door or shelf?
The 6.22 quart bowl fits comfortably on most refrigerator shelves. It is too tall for door storage on most refrigerators, but it is sized to sit on a standard middle or lower shelf.
Is the bowl compatible with other OXO accessories or replacement parts?
OXO sells replacement baskets and lids designed to fit the 6.22 quart Good Grips Salad Spinner. Aftermarket parts from other brands are not guaranteed to fit properly.
What is included in the box when I order it?
The box includes the outer bowl, the spinner basket with handle, and the lid with the integrated one-touch pump and brake. No additional parts are required to start using it. Replacement parts are sold separately by OXO if ever needed.
Is it safe to use with hot water or for cooked vegetables?
It is designed primarily for cold-water washing of raw produce. Hot water can warp the plastic over time and may also cook delicate greens. For cooked vegetables, a traditional colander is a better fit.
What happens if the pump or brake stops working?
OXO stands behind its products and offers replacement parts for the pump mechanism, lid, and basket. Contact OXO customer service directly with your order details, and they will typically send a replacement component or the full unit depending on the issue.
What is the difference between a salad spinner and a colander?
A colander only strains water away from food, leaving produce damp. A salad spinner washes, spins, and dries greens using centrifugal force, removing significantly more surface water. A spinner also doubles as a storage and serving bowl, which a colander does not.
