It’s quite possible OXO will be mentioned in my eulogy. They’re so engrained in my every day life. And I do love them and their products so much.

They sent me their salad spinner a few months back and it will, of course, be included in the how-did-I-live-without-this-item-for-so-long? list. It’s awesome. And lately, with the hot summer temps, it’s been used a lot.

You must have one. It not only cleans lettuce, but it’s fun to use :D

Now’s your chance to win one, thanks to OXO for honoring my request. I didn’t even have to beg. They rock. (Side note: I am not beyond begging for OXO stuff.)

The Giveaway
2 (two) lucky readers (1 from the blog and 1 from Facebook) have a chance to win a salad spinner. (U.S. residents only. Color may vary.)

There are three ways to enter: (1) leave a comment on the blog (2) go “like” us on Facebook or (3) Already a fan? Just leave a comment on The Wall.

UPDATE on July 17th:
Well, it will come as no surprise that it was steep competition this time around…everyone fighting over an OXO product. Naturally :D There were over 150 entries. And I need to find a better way to import y’all into Random.org’s system, because my fingers are tired from typing!

But onto the important news. Our two lovely winners are Wendy Jo (blog) and Julie Hoak (FaceBook.) Congratulations ladies! Thanks for playing. I sure hope you stick around and join in on our conversations. Contact me with your snail mail to claim your prize.

  4. My OXO salad spinner is a staple in my kitchen!!! Cannot live without it. I have impressed by mom so much with it, using it not only to spin salad, but berries, tomatoes, and other freshly washed produce, that she just went out and had to get one for herself. Now there is only soggy salad in my mother-in-law’s house!!! I’ve told her about your product, and would love to give it a try for herself, but just hasn’t gotten around to purchasing yet. So, this entry will hopefully let me win one for her, so we can all enjoy that crunchy delicious side dish every time.

  5. Wendy Jo, here’s a tip: Put the lettuce in a pillow case before throwing it that basement floor model spinner! Of course I really think you’re just funnin’ about the piece by piece… aren’t you?

  6. I’ve wanted an OXO salad spinner (and a bunch of their other products) since I saw Alton Brown use it on Good Eats. I am disappointed, however, that OXO products are manufactured in China rather than the U.S. But if I won one, it wouldn’t be my choice not to buy American.

  8. I really enjoyed the video on the OXO salad spinner! Would love to win it. I have been a big fan of OXO products ever since I had carpal tunnel problems and they made my life so much easier. Anybody out there w/ elderly parents who are hard to buy presents for? Here’s a hint: a gift basket full of OXO products is a guaranteed hit! Lots of things to make their lives easier, too. (We like Snorg Tees too, btw!)

  10. I would love to win this. I have a very old one that’s more like a crank, not cool and fun like this one. Then if I win this I can turn the old one into a Spin Art container. Remember Spin Art? Great Op Art in just seconds. The kids love it and quite frankly so do I. I hope I win. It will be nice to pump the water right out of my lettuce and leave it to OXO to make the very best!

  11. I just wanted to comment that I love OXO products(all of them). I’ve purchased several hand-held products and love the results I get from them. OXO has made my life much easier. I don’t know how I ever managed before without them. Thank you OXO.
    Sincerely

  15. Over the last two years, I’ve been helping my boyfriend stock up his place with kitchen essentials. Definitely on my list are the Salad Spinner and mandolin. This would be a GREAT addition to his OXO collection! :)

  20. Great video. I gave OXO products for Christmas last year and everyone loved them. I have several of their products myself, but not the spinner. I really could use something to was my socks and small, greasy tools and connectors

  28. Love the OXO salad spinner! I just bought one for each of my sons, but didn’t get one for myself. If I don’t win one:( , then I’ll probably have to buy another to replace my old Zyliss that works on a string pull and requires two hands.

  29. Great site. You have inspired me to work harder on my own site! And yeah – OXO is the best. I always recommend their products and I use them my self. I have arthritis and OXO allows me to keep doing what I love.

  35. I love OXO! This salad spinner looks so much easier to use than others I’ve seen. This product would definately make me want to eat more salads! I hope I win! THANKS!

  36. Wait a minute. I’ve been bending over the side of that huge mechanical gentle cycle spinner in my apartment building basement for the last few years. It’s been a pain in the butt pulling the lettuce out piece by piece off the sides of that huge drum. Who knew OXO made a counter top version I could keep in my kitchen. Thanks for the video. I really need to get one of these.

    Reply

  37. The video reminds me of me and my husband. I can see him, trying to dry his socks or underwear in the spinner, and me having to take the spinner and hide it. *lol*

  39. This is something I would LOVE to add to my kitchen. My daughter and I have decided it’s time to really get serious about eating healthier and we love salads. Being the conservative I am……I hate using paper products and frown upon using paper towels to dry our leafy greens. My daughter, however isn’t fond of my “shake, shake, shake method” to get the water from the greens. A salad spinner would be an AWESOME win!! Thank you for the wonderful opportunity!!

  40. I’m going to show your blog to my family, who thinks that I need some kind of intervention for my Oxo love. Their stuff is just awesome.

  41. I have a salad spinner but it is so hard to use so it is just taking up vital space in my limited cabinets. The video makes the OXO spinner look so easy and the appearance of the spinner would mean I could leave it out and be proud!

  43. I have to say your videos are down right funny!!! Plus I love OXO products too, never had an OXO product that I didn’t like. :)

  45. So I wanted to help my sister-in-law out at a BBQ a few weekends ago. She asked me to make the salad. She said to rinse it off and spin it in her Oxo Salad Spinner. “Ok!”, I said. It looked easy enough. So I rinsed out all the lettuce, chopped it up and loaded up the Salad Spinner. I’d never used one before and was delighted with how easy it seemed to be to use. So I decided to really pump the thing up (not realizing that I’d crammed WAY too much lettuce into the Spinner) to see how fast I could make it go. I started laughing, let go of the thing and just as I was going to call my sister-in-law’s attention to my masterful Salad Spinning skills, the thing started to wobble, the lid popped off and lettuce SPUN out EVERYWHERE.

    Well, I was relieved of my salad spinning duties for that day, but we really did get a good laugh out of it – to the point of tears and I REALLY want one of these things! :o) Have a happy summer, everyone!

  66. Every kitchen and chef needs a spinner. And I don’t have one….but sure would love one!?! Thanks, Amy, for all the good tips….AND recipes!

  70. I’ve been debating and debating (and debating) with myself over whether or not I need a salad spinner. I did just join a CSA, which means a lot of leafy greens, and boy, are they a pain to wash and store sometimes! Maybe it’s time to bite the bullet?

    Reply

  71. Oh boy, I have missed mine since I last wore one out and cheaped with a string pull one, crappy Zyliss…

    Reply

  72. Look at Paul Popeil rocking the salad spinner! LOVED IT! You guys always make me laugh. I have a salad spinner, but I have to say, this one is nicer. So if I win, I’ll give my crappy one to someone I don’t like a lot, lol!! Seems fair right?

    Reply

  73. I have one of the “original” salad spinners, black & white, OXO colors!! Love, just LOVE mine! My husband is part rabbit. So we use ours too much. I have 4 turtles and I use it to spin out their romaine and their dandelion leaves. It works great for coleslaw, gets all the excess water out, who likes soupy coleslaw. Dang, I sound like a commercial! Since I have one, my son is getting married soon, I’m sure my daughter inlaw would love one!!!

    • “I have 4 turtles and I use it to spin out their romaine and their dandelion leaves…” Shut up! I love it! I’m that crazy neighbor that actually used to leave gourmet nuts outside for the squirrels and birds, in separate zones, of course. Oh my god, I’m not well ;-)

  76. Everybody needs one!! A funny husband, I mean! No, really, great salad spinner. I too really like OXO products. So does MY funny husband!

  84. So funny, I’ve wanted to get one of these for a long time but thought it was too expensive! I am part of a CSA this year so it would get lots of use!
