This review is from: Progressive International Collapsible Over the Sink Colander, Green (Kitchen)
I originally purchased this item back in 2003. It got extensive use as I used it for pasta, draining meat, and washing fruit, so it got several uses per week.
We recently moved across country in 100 degree weather, so I think the seams just got too hot in the moving truck for over a week and stuck together so when we popped it open, there was a small tear along the seam line that slowly got bigger everytime we used it. This drainer is awesome. The adjustable arms allow me to use it any size sink. I have used it in a standard size double stainless steel sink, a standard size ceramic double and a very small "vegetable" sink with no problems. When I first received it I did use my knee to pop it open, but it quickly loosened up. The second one seemed to be easier to pop open right out of the box. There is not a plastic smell and it is obviously made from a very high food quality plastic. Cleaning is very easy, storage is a breeze and if ever needed, I will buy a third one.

This strainer is great it is such a space saver in the dishwasher and in the cabinet. The handles fit over my sink perfectly! I know some of the other reviews complained about slow straining, but I haven't had that problem. Where the handles slide into the strainer does hold a little bit of water, but if you just shake it over the sink real hard before you put it in the cabinet you should be fine.
I love that it can be collapsed to put in the dishwasher as well as the cabinet.

Loved it at first...,

This review is from: Progressive International Collapsible Over the Sink Colander, Green (Kitchen)
I received this as a wedding gift and loved how it collapsed to save on storage space. This was especially important since our tiny kitchen was lacking in cabinet space. I have two major gripes about this product though. First of all, water gets stuck inside the expandable arms and it is next to impossible to dry it out. It got to the point that mildew started to grow. Gross! Secondly, I have had this product for just over a year and the seams are all starting to rip! I hand wash only and haven't put anything unusually heavy in the colander. It is getting worse each time I use it so that I will probably have to be purchasing a new one in the next month or so. It is rather dissapointing because I loved this item when I first received it and I think with a few design tweaks it could work, but as is, I would not purchase this again.
