  1. Start in the exterior basket and transfer the clean floating stuff to the interior basket as step 1 or else you are stuck with junk that doesn’t fit easily through strainer holes. Then you can plunge the interior basket in multiple changes of water to thoroughly clean.

  2. All the snarkiness here, I initially didn't realize, that you could just soak the greens, and should to let the dirt etc fall to the bottom of the bowl. I used to just rinse them in the colander portion of the spinner and then spin dry, once I saw someone do exactly that, soak first, but ultimately rinsing never was adequate, so I soak now if dirt still remains, it's due to either not enough water used, or I didn't soak the greens long enough. Otherwise, soaking is the preferred way to ensure most if not all the dirt is removed from the greens (spinach especially).

    Then pour out the water, put the wet greens and colander back in bowl, put lid on, spin dry.
