Welcome to Wishlist After Dark! Folks, feast your eyes: it's the O X O Good Grips Little Salad and Herb Spinner, the perfect gift for the home cook with a small kitchen! Penny Pickwell, our review reader, and Sunny, our happiest salad fan, are you two seeing this? I see it, Marty. And yes, I read the reviews. I'm so ready! Look at that clear bowl! And that black knob! Sunny, it washes and dries lettuce, herbs and fruit, all in one little spinner from O X O!

And Marty, it's one-handed! The listing says a pump spins it fast with minimal effort. Wait, one hand? So what's the other hand doing, Sunny? Holding a snack, Marty! Oh, and that brake button? Press it, and the basket stops. Okay, Sunny, this part I like. The lid comes apart for thorough cleaning, and all components are dishwasher safe. Picture them unwrapping it! In the box, you've got the bowl, the basket, and the lid with pump knob and brake button.

Oh, I want one! Penny, tell me buyers love it too. They do, Marty. Look at this: four point seven stars from 55,685 reviews on Amazon. Okay, so what's the catch, Penny? Size. This is the little one beside its two big siblings. The bowl's 3.03 quarts, so check it's big enough if they make large salads. But hey, it's about 8 by 8 by 7 inches! I'm at eight point eight out of ten. Sunny? Eight point four out of ten, Marty!

I just keep picturing someone lifting that lid! I'm strictest: seven point eight. After Dark Score, eight point three out of ten, tied for number three of twelve on our kitchen board. Buy it for small kitchens, skip it for big salads. See you next time, folks, and the link's on our site and in the description!
