The first thing to ask is, "Why?" Here are two possible reasons for getting this tool:
1) To keep your fingers safely away from the slicing knife.
2) To hold the onion steady, giving you more control and the ability to slice thinner slices. Avoid slippage.
How did it measure up?
Regarding #1: Success with one notable exception. As you can see in the first photo, there is a safety trade-off. Once you insert the tool, it does keep your hands at a safer distance from the knife as you slice. However, there is a one time risk of poking yourself as you insert the spindles of the tool. They are very sharp.
It is a good trade because you do not have to insert them very deeply when you first enter the onion. You can insert the spindles just far enough to get it started. Then move your hand out of the way (as in photo 2). Also, you only stick the spindles in once, but the knife slices multiple times.
Regarding #2: Success! It provides the steadiness to give you enhanced control.
One lesson learned is that one does not need to insert the spindles as deeply as shown in these photos. Doing so makes their extraction difficult and potentially messy.

Good for Beginner, who are just less experience to chop things, perfect to protect your hand from being cut or scraped.
My lettuce is still wet and ends up limp. This seems to be a poor quality spinner. Do not recommend.
This spinner does NOT dry greens!!!! Even after spinning twice you absolutely have to use lots of paper towels and even that doesn't do the trick.
VERY DISSATISFIED! USELESS. Have had it for months and have tried using it different ways. Will give up and buy another brand.
We read all the reviews and this is what was the best one the reviews said so....NOT. We thought at first it was ok but after 5 months of frustration and constantly spinning and spinning our lettuce only to have it wet always, we are returning it. I am hoping we can still return it because it was the most expensive one too!
This works just great! Very powerful spin which leaves your salad dry and crispy. Sticks to the worktop too - which is a good plus. (So much better than bunching up lettuce into a teatowel, going out into the garden and spinning your arm around like mad - which I've been doing for years! Although I do miss the exercise ...)
Salad keeps fresh in it for at least two days as well, which is handy as I always make too much, and used to waste loads. Now we have salad two days running, or use it the next day in sandwiches, etc. (I think it would last longer than two days, actually, but haven't tried.) So it's a money-saver too!
Only downside for me was where to store it, as it's quite big, and my cupboards are full. I solved this by finding space for just the lid in a cupboard, and storing the bowl itself in the 'fridge. Yes, you do have room! Just put all your unprepared salad stuff inside the bowl. (Give it a quick swill round before using, of course.) Job done!
I got this recently and am very happy with it. I used to have a system of of washing salads in a colander and placing that over a large 'pyrex' dish to catch the drips. the only trouble was that it was time consuming and annoying if I wanted the colander for other purposes whilst it took time in allowing the water to drip through. Now I can spin salads etc dryer in seconds. This spinner is very well made, as are all products made by 'OXO' that I have bought in the past. I cannot yet state if it will be prone to staining by items such as fruit juices, or the juice of sliced beetroot, but the spinner is made of various types of plastic and so may well do. I will update my review if this becomes fact.
