This is such a great collander. I use it to wash fruit and veggies, drain pasta and so much more. I use it so much that it almost never gets put away. It fits nicely in the dishwasher and it stores nicely in the cabinet (when I'm not using it). It is a little more difficult to collapse than I had imagined, but it is not too bad and it is worth the price.

This is a handy little gadget, capitalizing on the recent silicone craze. Flexible enough to squeeze into a small sink, tough enough to stand up to boiling water and more! I like that I don't have to hand wash or take up a ton of dishwasher space to get it clean, and storing this thing is a snap.

I was looking for a colander w/o a handle specifically to drain yogurt in the frig. This is the perfect size for my needs. The picture looked as though it had a lid but it's actually the item in it's collapsed form. I would make use of the lid but this is still the right product for the job.

This is a great product. It folds up flat and can be stored in the same drawer as my spoons. It's easy to clean and it the right size for many things (a bit smaller than a standard colander).

This silicone colander is awesome! I love it!! I had purchased one of these earlier from a different retailer, and somehow it got a big rip in it. I had tried to replace it, but have found that these are not super easy to find. I like these that are all the silicone material and nothing else. Has lots of holes and drains really well and bonus-takes up very little room-which has always been my complaint about these. I have a very small kitchen and need something efficient and easy to store. This is definitely that problem solver.

I bought this colander for berries (blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries). Perfect size and I like how its expandable to different sizes too. Not sure how long this will hold up after several times in the dishwasher, but we'll see.

Its much smaller than i had imagined it to be, its about six inches at its widest point... otehr than that, its a very neat device, and space saving at that... If you want a small colander for stuff like eggs, small fruit, grapes, strawberries, and things like that this is a great product, but don't expect to fit much in it...

good for what it is...

This is probably great for spaghetti, but it has a habit of filling up with water and then slooooowly draining because the holes are really small. However, if it doesn't matter much (i.e. your veggies won't overcook by sitting in hot water for a few seconds longer) then don't worry. Otherwise get something with larger holes!

I love this-it's perfect for anyone but a must if you have a small kitchen. It's a decent size and I like how it can hold it's shape even when full. My kids also like using it to wash fruit/veggies, ect. I can't wait to get the bigger one that fits over the sink!

This item is smaller than I thought it would be. I got it with the intention of getting rid of my old metal one, but now I'm not sure I will. I have to wait and see if it will work for draining enough pasta for a dinner.
