[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It will never fully dry it. It's like towel drying your hair before you blow dry. You get the heavy water off, then you have to use paper towels or let it air dry for a few hours. That is the only way to get the leaves really dry.[/quote]

OP here. Hmm, maybe I am being unrealistic. I have the OXO spinner and I don't think I am overstuffing it but it just seems like nothing really gets dry. If I want to just get heavy water off, I could put the leaves in a dishtowel and shake them over the sink and accomplish the same thing. Is that all a salad spinner really does, and I have an unrealistic view?[/quote]

NP here, I think you have unrealistic expectations.  Most people don't expect lettuce to be perfectly dry!  But your dish towel thing is not something I would want to do, so maybe the spinner is for those of us who don't like that.

I rinse the Romaine leaves individually under the running tap and drop them in the spinner as I go.  Then I dump what water is in the spinner bowl already, replace the basket in the bowl, and spin.  The result is ready to eat.[/quote]
