Product Description

Size: 6-Inch

Amazon.com

A required tool in the home of a seasoned cook, this strainer has a fine-grid mesh for draining the excess liquid from just about any food, including fruit, vegetables, and pasta. The wide stainless- steel brim and loop make it easy for the strainer to rest on almost any bowl or pot, and the double-rod construction makes it extra sturdy. And it comes with a hanging loop for convenient storage. The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably and softly, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands, while providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets are constructed of, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect size December 16, 2007
Size Name:8-Inch|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is an absolutely perfect size. It is not so big that you won't find a place to store it, but large enough to hold a bunch of angel hair pasta that would slip right out of the little holes in a traditional colander. It also fits over the sink so that I can pour the pasta (or whatever I'm draining) right into it, water and all, and have the water drain into the sink.

It doesn't say in the description, but this is a double weave strainer. In other words, there are two layers of thin metal mesh to ensure even the smallest seeds and particles are caught in the net.

It has a traditional soft black rubber Oxo handle, too. This is important when using it over the sink as it keeps it from slipping around when the water hits it.

Nice!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is used daily in my kitchen June 29, 2006
Size Name:6-Inch
A passionate home cook that has been honing her cooking skills for the last 25 years, concentrating on Italian food for the last 10 years, writes this review. My favorite cookbooks are "The Professional Chef" by the Culinary Institute and "Culinary Artistry. Cooking is my form of therapy. I purchased this product when I began using citrus juice in many of my meals. This product is very useful and has many more applications than just straining juice.

Pros:
1. Excellent for straining citrus juice to keep the seeds out of your foods
2. Fits well over the top of a blender jar
3. Hooks easily to the side of pans to keep if from slipping
4. Great for straining spent vegetables from sauces
5. Excellent for removing small pasta from boiling water
6. Handle stays cool so that you don't need a potholder
7. Nice flour sifter
8. Makes a nice yogurt strainer for making a healthy non-fat yogurt cheese (line the inside with a paper towel or a couple of layers of cheese cloth)

Cons:
1. Cleaning is a little tedious (I find it works best if you soak it in another vessel that is filled with hot soapy water and use a brush to remove the residual "gunk")

Overall, the concept is good and the product is useful and well made. I recommend this product to anyone that loves to cook.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than anticipated April 11, 2007
Size Name:8-Inch|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am a foodie and as such, I own quite a few strainers. This is the first Good Grips strainer I've purchased and although I love almost everything Oxo makes, I was still surprised at the size, quality and fineness of the mesh on this one.

Do your math, this is a HUGE strainer compared to most hand-held strainers, but the mesh is quite fine and yet sturdy at the same time.

It's without a doubt the best strainer I've purchased anywhere. I hung it on a hook because it's too big for my various utensil crocks, but I find myself reaching for it even for pasta, for which I'd normally use a colander.

Considering the 4 for 3 deal going on right now, it was a superb value, as well.

I intend to buy the smaller versions, as well, to replace my older strainers.

Oxo seems to make their products better and better all the time. I have yet to get a 'dud' from the Good Grips collection.

I am so happy with this strainer. I use it to strain my yogurt to separate the whey, and I don't need to use a filter. It also is very handy when I make broth.

It's fine for what it is, but overpaid. Go to local stores and check prices, I saw it for half what I paid.

About the only thing she wished was that the basket part was deeper, and perhaps an inch wider, but it certainly works as is. And, the quality of the product is excellent! Read more
