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.

what I like most, so far, is the rim! it's nice and tight to the strainer and nothing has gotten stuck up under it yet (like the cheaper, more popular mesh strainers).
Overall, after going through a variety of cheap/expensive or plastic/metal strainers over the years.. this seems to be the one for me. Light enough, but also heavy duty. The strainer holes are not too big or small. it's just perfect.
Will update if things go sideways, but it's pretty solid workmanship.
We'd definitely buy thing again, if we needed another, or were looking for a gift for literally anyone who uses a strainer.
Item appears to be well made and has a base so food is not in contact with sink.
