The deciding specification is the published height against what each maker says the machine becomes when it is put away, and not one of these five states an overall size in words.
By the Lush Editorial Team·Researched & Compared
I compared the published height and footprint fields of each machine against every storage claim in its bullets, plus blade counts and widths, what holds each one still, what else it needs and the washing rules, across five spiralizers using only each listing's own text.
A five blade tabletop machine with fields of 8.27 x 5.31 x 11.02 in at 2.54 lb, stating that the entire set stores as a compact whole that fits into cabinets or drawers, with blade widths published as 5/64, 1/8, 3/16 and 7/32 inch.
A three blade tabletop machine with fields of 9.75 x 6.25 x 8.25 in at 1.5 lb, whose side handle folds up for compact storage and whose removable blade box stores onboard, with a suction cup for the counter.
A stand mixer attachment with fields of 12.4 x 5.8 x 2.9 in at 2.2 lb, five quick change blades including an optional peeling blade, and a stated storage case that the attachment and its accessories fit inside.
A handheld three mode cutter with fields of 3.74 x 3.35 x 3.35 in at 0.48 lb, switched by turning a knob, fully dismantled for rinsing, with a non slip cover over the blade and an open barrel for long round vegetables.
A stainless steel lid with three blades that screws onto a wide mouth jar with the ring you already own, fields of 3.25 x 3.25 x 0.75 in at 1.04 lb, with a cap for the blades and every piece stated top rack safe.
| Model | Brand | Size (Capacity) | Weight | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SUSTEAS Vegetable Spiralizer | SUSTEAS | Medium | 2.54 lb | Best for putting the whole thing away in one piece |
| OXO Good Grips 3-Blade Tabletop Spiralizer with Stro... | OXO | One Size | 1.5 lb | Best for a handle that folds down |
| KitchenAid 5-Blade Fruit and Vegetable Spiralizer At... | KitchenAid | #4086 | 2.2 lb | Best for a cook who already owns the motor |
| SUREWIN 3 in 1 Vegetable Spiralizer Slicer | SUREWIN | Small | 0.48 lb | Best for a drawer and one zucchini |
| Jarware 3 in 1 Mason Jar Veggie Spiralizer Lid | Jarware | Wide Mouth | 1.04 lb | Best for no extra machine at all |
A five blade tabletop machine with fields of 8.27 x 5.31 x 11.02 in at 2.54 lb, stating that the entire set stores as a compact whole that fits into cabinets or drawers, with blade widths published as 5/64, 1/8, 3/16 and 7/32 inch.
A three blade tabletop machine with fields of 9.75 x 6.25 x 8.25 in at 1.5 lb, whose side handle folds up for compact storage and whose removable blade box stores onboard, with a suction cup for the counter.
A stand mixer attachment with fields of 12.4 x 5.8 x 2.9 in at 2.2 lb, five quick change blades including an optional peeling blade, and a stated storage case that the attachment and its accessories fit inside.
A handheld three mode cutter with fields of 3.74 x 3.35 x 3.35 in at 0.48 lb, switched by turning a knob, fully dismantled for rinsing, with a non slip cover over the blade and an open barrel for long round vegetables.
A stainless steel lid with three blades that screws onto a wide mouth jar with the ring you already own, fields of 3.25 x 3.25 x 0.75 in at 1.04 lb, with a cap for the blades and every piece stated top rack safe.
Jarware publishes a height field of 0.75 in because it is a lid rather than a machine. KitchenAid publishes 2.9 in and its own storage case, but needs a stand mixer. SUREWIN publishes 3.35 in at 0.48 lb. OXO publishes 8.25 in with a handle that folds. SUSTEAS publishes 11.02 in and is the only tabletop machine here that states it stores as one piece in a cabinet or drawer.

On published fields, the three that are not tabletop frames. Jarware is a lid at 0.75 in. KitchenAid is a stand mixer attachment at 2.9 in, though its longest field is 12.4 in. SUREWIN is a handheld cutter at 3.74 by 3.35 by 3.35 in. The two crank machines publish 8.25 in and 11.02 in, and only one of the two says anything about a cabinet.
Two listings say so, in different ways. OXO states that the side handle folds up for compact storage and that the removable blade box stores onboard rather than loose. SUSTEAS states that the entire set can be stored as a compact whole that fits easily into cabinets or drawers, with one blade preinstalled and two in built in compartments. Neither publishes what the folded or packed figure is.
Because none of them does. Every figure in the table comes from the dimension fields Amazon publishes, and not one of these five listings writes a length, a width or a height into a bullet. On other pages a maker's sentence is used to correct a field that looks wrong. Here there is nothing to correct it with, so the fields are reported as they stand.
Each needs something else. KitchenAid states that the attachment connects to a household KitchenAid stand mixer power hub, sold separately, so the 2.9 in figure is the part you store and the mixer is the part you already own. Jarware states it fits wide mouth jars from several brands with 16 oz recommended, and that no jar, lid or ring is included.
SUSTEAS, which publishes five blades and four widths: 5/64 inch for angel hair, 1/8 inch for spaghetti, 3/16 inch for fettuccine, 7/32 inch for pappardelle, and a flat ribbon slicer. OXO publishes a spaghetti cut at 1/8 inch, a fettuccine cut at 1/4 inch and a ribbon cut. KitchenAid, SUREWIN and Jarware publish blade counts and no widths.
Three publish a rule and none of the three is a simple yes. SUSTEAS states that the blades, handle bar and blade holder are top rack safe, the main body is hand wash only, and cycles must stay under 158 degrees F. KitchenAid states blades top rack and a body wiped with a damp cloth. Jarware states every piece is top rack safe. OXO and SUREWIN publish nothing about a dishwasher.

The height fields on these five read 0.75, 2.9, 3.35, 8.25 and 11.02 in. That is not a range of similar products. It is the difference between a lid, an attachment, a handheld cutter and two counter machines with cranks, and a cabinet with a low shelf will take three of them and refuse two.
There is a second finding behind the first. Not one of these five listings writes an overall size into a sentence. Every figure below comes from a dimension field, with no maker’s words to check it against, which is unusual across this site and worth knowing before a figure is trusted to a quarter of an inch.
| Specification | Jarware | KitchenAid | SUREWIN | OXO | SUSTEAS |

What the table cannot settle is what any of these measures once it is put away. Two listings describe a smaller packed state in words and neither gives it a figure, so the 8.25 in and 11.02 in in the height row are the machines in use, standing on their feet, with nothing published for the state a cabinet actually sees.
SUSTEAS has the largest height field here, 11.02 in, and the only storage claim that names the furniture. Its bullet states that the entire set can be stored as a compact whole that fits easily into cabinets or drawers, with one blade preinstalled on the holder and two more kept in built in compartments inside the body. Nothing is loose and nothing is left over.
It is also the best documented machine on the page in every respect except its size. Five stainless blades with widths published as 5/64, 1/8, 3/16 and 7/32 inch plus a ribbon slicer, a suction base engaged by turning a switch counterclockwise, and a washing rule with a ceiling: parts on the top rack, the body by hand, nothing above 158 degrees F. At 2.54 lb it is the heaviest of the five.
OXO is 8.25 in on its height field with a different approach to the same problem. Its side handle, the one that pushes food through the blade, folds up for compact storage, and its removable blade box stores onboard so the blades are not in a drawer with the knives. The suction cup holds it still while it is in use.
What it does not do is tell you how much folding the handle saves. The published height is the machine as it sits, and the folded figure is not published anywhere in the listing. It publishes two blade widths, a spaghetti cut at 1/8 inch and a fettuccine cut at 1/4 inch, plus a ribbon cut, and it says nothing about a dishwasher at all.
KitchenAid publishes 2.9 in on its height field because there is no frame, no suction cup and no crank: the motor is the stand mixer, which the listing states is sold separately. The attachment and its accessories fit inside their own storage case, which is the cleanest storage answer here and the only one that depends on owning a second appliance.
Jarware goes further and removes the machine entirely. It is a stainless steel lid with three blades that screws onto a wide mouth jar using the ring you already own, published at 3.25 by 3.25 by 0.75 in. The jar catches the noodles and then stores them. It weighs 1.04 lb, which is more than the handheld cutter on this page weighs.
SUREWIN publishes 3.74 by 3.35 by 3.35 in and 0.48 lb, the lightest of the five, and describes itself as pocket sized and small enough to store anywhere in the kitchen. Three cutting modes are selected by turning a knob, the barrel is open for long round vegetables, and the whole thing comes apart to be rinsed under running water.
The trade is control. Nothing holds it to the counter, so the vegetable is turned against the blade by hand, with a non slip cover supplied to go over the blade when it is not in use. It publishes three noodle sizes and no widths for any of them, which is the pattern on this page: the small tools publish counts, the large ones publish figures.
The pool holds a julienne peeler published at 2.0 by 7.0 by 0.5 in and 0.1 lb, and a flower curler published at 3 by 2 inches whose own bullet says it fits easily into small drawers. Both would win a shallow cabinet page on figures alone. Neither makes a spiral noodle: one cuts straight strips and one carves a rose garnish.
The flower curler is the more interesting exclusion, because it publishes the storage claim this page is looking for and states its size in its own words, which none of the five picks does. It is left out because the page is about turning a vegetable into noodles, and a tool that makes decorative shavings answers a different question.
Across the whole pool the pattern holds: a tabletop spiralizer publishes the height of a machine standing ready, and the figure a cabinet needs is the height of a machine collapsed. The two listings that describe a collapsed state describe it in words. Nobody measures it.
That is why this page ranks on the published height and then says plainly what each maker claims on top of it. A reader with a 6 in shelf gap cannot buy the 8.25 in OXO on the strength of a folding handle, because the listing never says how far it folds. A reader with a 4 in gap has three picks here that fit without any claim at all.
A cabinet that takes the whole set. SUSTEAS, 8.27 x 5.31 x 11.02 in and 2.54 lb, with five blades at 5/64, 1/8, 3/16 and 7/32 inch, a suction base, and the only bullet here that states the set stores as one compact whole in a cabinet or drawer.
A gap the handle can make. OXO, 9.75 x 6.25 x 8.25 in and 1.5 lb, with a side handle that folds up, a blade box that stores onboard, a suction cup and two published blade widths at 1/8 inch and 1/4 inch.
A stand mixer already on the counter. KitchenAid, 12.4 x 5.8 x 2.9 in and 2.2 lb, five quick change blades including an optional peeler, a storage case the parts fit inside, and a mixer stated to be sold separately.
One vegetable and one drawer. SUREWIN, 3.74 x 3.35 x 3.35 in and 0.48 lb, three modes on a knob, a blade cover for storage, and a body that comes apart to rinse under the tap.
A jar instead of a machine. Jarware, a stainless lid at 3.25 x 3.25 x 0.75 in and 1.04 lb with three blades and a cap, screwing onto a wide mouth jar with 16 oz recommended, none of which is included.
Every figure above comes from the maker’s own listing text. These are the things we went looking for and could not source in any of them.
