The salad spinner is super. I do not remember how we got along without the years before they ... The vulnerability is unfortunately in the crank. How it works tatellos, but it is aborted, a part of the holder in the crank. It is claimed, logically, almost daily, so would have much longer (years) hold. For us it was one month. The service offered by Amazon replaced my spin on the warranty problems. If you can live with the fact that part (as long as it at Amazon offer is) replaced to get, has a great salad spinner. Topic Spühlmaschinentauglichkeit: I wash the spin immediately after use with clean water. That's why I can not judge how it holds with prolonged use in a dishwasher.
