Dreamfarm Spina Colander and Salad Spinner
Product number: 26623
Handy, fun and incredibly clever, Dreamfarm’s Spina might look at first glance like a normal colander… but a simple twist of the handle and frame transform it into a salad spinner too.
Strains and spins
To use it as a colander, either sit it in your sink or hold by the handle to drain pasta or veg, or rinse fresh fruit and salad leaves. The clever bit comes when it’s time to dry your salad… you simply twist the handle to unlock it, then spin the frame and handle to sit vertically, with the handy little non-slip ‘foot’ at the bottom. To set it spinning, pump the handle up and down a few times and off it goes, spinning impressively quickly to shake off any excess water and thoroughly dry your food. To stop, press and hold down the handle.
Easy to use and store
The deserved winner of a Best in Class Good Design Award, the Spina is full of clever features that make it easy to use and store. The twist-lock design of the handle ensures it stays in place when you need it to, and you can even push the handle to sit inside the basket when you’re not using it, making it easy to store as it can nest neatly with your mixing bowls. The strainer has raised sides to stop salad leaves or berries from doing a runner when spinning, while the non-slip foot keeps the Spina firmly in place as it spins.
Heat-resistant up to 80°C.
