1.0 out of 5 stars Well, the bags are adaquate, but the frame...., April 24, 2008

I have to say that I was so excited when I bought this strainer. It looked so simple, and so functional, and best of all, so affordable! Then I attempted using it...

The bag falls off the frame if you fill the bag more than about a third full, no matter how tightly you tie the strings. The reason for this is that it can't slip under the metal loop completely to grasp better because the legs of the thing come directly out of the hoop, and for intensive purposes, from the edge. There is nothing for the bag to grasp. I do larger batches of jellies, and having to slow down production this much is unacceptable.

The upshot is that the bags work. If you've already bought this, and have access to some gallon-sized glass jars (ours were originally pickle jars), you can use those and put the bag in them. It works PERFECTLY. Almost as if that was the original idea...

1.0 out of 5 stars Steel Frame Started To Rust With First Use, July 19, 2009

I purchased this jelly strainer with the intent of making yogurt cheese. Immediately I went home to test drive my new purchase. Unfortunately in less than an hour a rust ring started to form on the bag where it fits snuggly around the top of the support frame. It continued to get worse throughout the day.

Thankfully I purchased this locally so I can easily return it. I only wished I had read reviews on it first.

The service was wonderful. The item arrived quickly and I had no problem with the seller. That said, the threaded end of the metal leg broke off when I went to screw it in and the bag wss too thick for the liquids to strain through. I remember the product's being totally different and I liked it alot, this one was a disappointment. I would recommend the seller highly, but not Norpro.
