OXO Good Grips Salad Spinner Large + Cuisinart Fine Mesh Strainers Review (2026)

What is included

This bundle combines the OXO Good Grips large salad spinner with a Cuisinart set of three fine mesh strainers. The OXO spinner has a bowl capacity of about 6.22 quarts and a spinning basket capacity of about 4.95 quarts, sized for washing and drying a full head of lettuce or several servings of greens at once. The Cuisinart strainers come in three sizes, roughly 3 1/8 inch, 5 1/2 inch, and 7 7/8 inch, made from stainless steel mesh. Together the set covers washing and drying leafy greens in the spinner and straining smaller ingredients like rice, quinoa, or pasta with the graduated strainers.

The salad spinner

The OXO spinner uses a soft, non-slip pump knob on top that spins the inner basket to dry greens without the pull-cord mechanism found on some other spinners. A non-slip base keeps the bowl steady on a counter while pumping, and a built-in brake button stops the spinning basket quickly once drying is done, rather than letting it coast to a stop. The basket itself works as a colander for rinsing produce under running water before spinning, so the same piece handles both rinsing and drying. The bowl and basket are dishwasher safe, and the whole unit includes a storage lock so the spinner can be collapsed flatter for a cabinet or drawer.

The mesh strainers

The three Cuisinart strainers graduate from a small 3 1/8 inch size suited to straining syrups, flavored oils, or seeds out of a sauce, up to a large 7 7/8 inch strainer sized for draining a full pot of pasta or making smooth pureed soups. The 5 1/2 inch middle size works well for sifting dry ingredients or rinsing smaller batches of grains like quinoa or rice before cooking. All three are stainless steel mesh and dishwasher safe, and because they nest inside one another they take up relatively little cabinet space for the range of tasks they cover, from fine straining to bulk draining.

Where the bundle makes sense

Pairing a large salad spinner with a set of graduated strainers covers two different but related meal prep tasks, washing bulk greens and rinsing or straining smaller ingredients, in a single purchase from two established kitchen brands. This is useful for someone equipping a kitchen from scratch or upgrading multiple worn tools at once, since buying the pieces separately would mean sourcing a spinner and a strainer set from different listings. The bundle does take up more combined storage space than either piece alone, and anyone who already owns a colander or fine mesh strainers in similar sizes may find the strainers here redundant with what is already in a kitchen drawer.

Who should buy this bundle

This bundle suits home cooks doing regular meal prep who wash large batches of salad greens or herbs and also need to rinse grains like quinoa or drain pasta on a regular basis. The large spinner size is aimed at bigger households or batch cooking sessions rather than someone spinning a single small side salad. Buyers who already have a spinner and just want extra strainers, or the reverse, may prefer to buy either piece separately rather than the combined bundle. It is a practical option for anyone stocking a new kitchen who wants two well-reviewed OXO and Cuisinart tools without hunting for each individually.
