Know before you buy
Yes, the stainless steel bowl is designed to be attractive enough for table service. Once your greens are dried, you can remove the basket and serve directly from the bowl.
The components are designed to be easily separated for cleaning. While the plastic basket is top-rack dishwasher safe, we recommend hand-washing the lid mechanism to ensure the longevity of the pump and brake components.
The pump features a soft, non-slip knob that you press down repeatedly to spin the basket. It is designed for easy, one-handed operation, allowing you to multitask while prepping your greens.
Yes, the inner plastic basket is removable and can be used independently as a colander to rinse your vegetables under the sink before placing them into the bowl to spin.
The integrated brake button is highly responsive and brings the spinning basket to an immediate stop. This allows you to quickly unload your greens without waiting for the basket to coast to a halt.
