Wow.  This is heavy, solid and big!  It feels geeky to get excited about a salad spinner, but after a lifetime of cheesy salad spinners, including an indestructible but lightweight small Oxo, I wasn't expecting something so heavy duty.  And it like to spin and spin fast.  Impressed by the mundane here. Embarrassing.  So there. That's my first salad spinner review. Hopefully my last, as well.
