What our customer's say!

"Clogged cogs for dinner tonight honey!", Once upon a time I purchased a Zyliss salad spinner. It had a mechanism that was operated with twine. A lot like a yo-yo. Exactly like a yo-yo. I was a little skeptical, how long could the twine last anyway? However, I decided the health benefits of salad was worth $25 and purchased it. Eleven and a half years later the twine broke as I forsaw. A forlorn search through craft stores failed to yield strong twine with the correct diameter. Other twines/string snapped after a few uses.

Once again I shopped glumly and found the Zyliss was highly favored among reviewers. but with a twist. I couldn't find the highly reviewed model in stock. The newer model (this one) however was available. It sported a lever with a lock (to keep it out of your way when not in use), a brake (for those who can't wait for that first luscious, juicy, delectable leaf) and a internal mechanism to convert your up-down motion into moisture-removing centrifugal force. Once again, I was highly skeptical. The twine was fine! What is wrong with the modern world anyway? But since I figure the health benefits of salad outweigh $29.98, once again I purchased.

I've had this for three weeks now. It's been in use almost everyday. Usually, it has trouble engaging when you pump the lever. It can take up to 5-6 tries before the spinning starts. Today the cog jammed.

Like all Zyliss products, it looks great.

If this continues, I will return to Amazon. And remove some stars from this review.

But really, I want 29.98 of that awesome twine so I can repair my old salad spinner.

Update - Sept 10, 2008

I've had the spinner for about a month and a half now. Still eating lots of salad almost daily. I dropped the lid of the spinner on my tiled kitchen floor. It's a very heavy lid and a small plastic piece that hold the entire spinner section in place popped out. I was able to fix this with a drop of super glue (non-toxic, of course!).

The clogs haven't jammed since. I have no problems now starting the spinning action. I've figured out the correct rhythm to keep it spinning. It's working great.

Now I don't know what to think. I can't exactly advocate dropping the lid to fix the cranky mechanism.

I guess I'll simply state that, all things considered, the lid is reasonably robust but not indestructible.

"Too 'Smart' by 1/2 ", While it has style the Smart Touch is lacking in performance. The pump mechanism is terrible; hard to start and hard to keep moving.
