Do you have a cleaner that you can put in water to wash vegetables, lettuce etc.?

you can absolutely do this with L.O.C. It is strong enough for the toughest job and mild enough to brush your teeth with! Scrub those veggies with no worries!

L.O.C. is definitely safe for immersing and rinsing fruits and vegetables. Have been doing that for many years.

Yeah, I bought some of these at a fair one time and they had them in fish bowls. I do the same, with plants also, I just clean them regularly

Not that I know of. But a salad spinner can be used separately. It may only accommodate a few items at a time, but it can spin the excess water out.

Yes! I love this item. It works well, suction holds a small bottle of dish soap and sponges. Once a month I do wash it with bleach water to clean off any mildew and it looks new again

Yes you do. I mix up 1 cup household bleach to 5 gal of water and soak all my stuff in it of 10 minutes. Works great

No. There is a plastic pusher that comes with the dicer and most of the debris snaps out. You can use a tiny brush or a metal skewer to clean the rest. With soft vegetables like potato, you will not have to do anything more.

You probably could use a high quality dish washing liquid that is biodegradable.

I always rinse it immediately after use and then put it in the dishwasher. It chops up onion, celery and carrots really small which works great for sneaking vegetables into dinner for my kids.

There is a cleaning fluid that should be used with the machine. Plain water can work but will not be as effective.

No there is no cleaning tool. For me i found that putting garlic into the press without taking off the outer skin works great, saves time too.Simply running it under water, or for stubborn pieces using a toothpick fixes all the issues. Running water clears the basket just fine for me.

Short answer is no. The container is too small except to spin a pair of wet socks or underwear. The spinner does not dry nor does it spin fast enough to remove water from clothing. It does as advertised for vegetables and lettuce products. If you decide to spin socks or underwear, I hope you don't invite me to a salad party:-)

No, to can these vegetables you need to use a pressure canner. Water bath canning is only suitable for high-acid foods such as fruits and pickles. Here's a link with more information: http://www.freshpreserving.com/tools/pressure-canning

Dawn Power Scrubber works well, just be sure to rinse it all out! (look for it in a blue spray bottle near the dishsoap)

There are no disposables required for this unit. Just fill it from your sink faucet and drain into the sink with the provided drain line. We have been washing ALL of our fresh fruit and vegetables in this machine for months now with great success. You could wash meat as well, but we don't eat any red meat, so I haven't tried that. I'm concerned about foodborn illness that seems to occur frequently these days. This is a far more reliable way to wash produce. We used to use dilute solutions of acetic acid, but I think the Ozone is a more reliable way to do it, nd it leaves no taste behind.

I've been using regular tap water. I do wash my vegetables and/or fruit with the vegetable/fruit soap first.

Yes. Wash the herbs as you would any garden fair. I soak herbs, fruit and vegetables in a lukewarm solution of 1 part white vinegar to 20 parts water for 5-10 minutes then rinse. the vinegar kills bacteria and fungi while removing surface contaminants.

I have no problem rinsing my veggies, there is plenty of depth to use just one side. I love this sink. Good luck
