About this item

  • RICE AND SPAGHETTI WON’T FALL THROUGH THE HOLES: A big improvement over both old-fashioned colanders with gaping holes and mesh colanders. They drain fast and won’t clog up with food.
  • QUICK DRAINING MICRO-PERFORATIONS: Tiny, closely spaced holes mean your food drains fast without having to tilt the bowl. The stable draining ring base won’t tip over and won’t leave your food sitting in a puddle.
  • RUST-PROOF DISHWASHER SAFE 18/8 STAINLESS STEEL: You'll be impressed with the quality of the heavy duty steel with riveted handles. Designed to stand up to the rigors of a professional kitchen.
  • STRAIN EVEN TINY GRAINS AND PASTAS: The holes in this colander are small enough that you can strain most beans, pastas, and grains as well as fruits and vegetables without any worries.
  • COMMERCIAL QUALITY, WITH FLAIR: We craft our home-town hero colander with heavy-duty steel. Because when the busiest kitchens need a work-horse, they look for exactly what Bellemain’s signature colander provides: a no-nonsense construction that lasts and it 100% dishwasher safe.

Customers are satisfied with the draining of the food strainer. They mention that it drains very nicely, fast, and effectively. The micro-perforations drain so fast that it's almost like it' s not even there. The Bellemain colander is made of sheet metal, so it has the excellent drainage characteristics of a wire colander. It's very effective in draining products, and the water instantly leaves the noodles.

Sturdy Colander
5 Stars
Sturdy Colander
I’m satisfied with this purchase and have used it a few times each week for over a month. It’s great for draining pasta water, and rinsing vegetables, fruits or farro. I have not rinsed rice in this, but the holes do seem too large to rinse without losing some precious grains. To clean, I hand wash and let air dry. No rust noted so far. Overall would recommend!
