Customers like the quality of the food strainer. For example, they mention it's a nice sturdy colander, holds up well to veggies and pasta, and has no problems with construction. The mesh is very noticeably stronger and less flexible than the Oneida colander. It's stable and the expanding handles are made well. Some say it'll last a long time and is the best colander they have ever used.

5 Stars
Well made and high quality materials.
This fits my 28-year-old Kohler sink very well. The extendible arms are sturdy and the mesh is rigid. None slip sleeves on the arms work well. I am happy with the quality of this strainer but the price was rather high. Time will tell, and so will I, if it is not truly stainless in all parts. If there is no update, assume that I am still happy.

I chose Cuisinart for it's known quality and their limited lifetime warranty.

The strainer has bright and sturdy stainless steel mesh and shiny edging and handles. The mesh is strong and retains it's shape. It is fine enough for rinsing everything but grains and a bit too harsh and large holed for berries - which is fine with me as I use the Cuisinart hand held strainers for tasks that need a finer mesh.  Cuisinart CTG-00-3MS Mesh Strainers, Set of 3

The bars under the mesh have bends to form feet to protect the mesh and hold it off the counter when taken out of the sink. This is nice as it stays upright instead of rolling to one side or the other as it would without feet.

The handles have black rubber like tubes over the ends that rest on the sides of the sink that appear to be of good quality and look like they will hold up with use.

I saw the measurements on the product page so I shouldn't have been surprised - but when I opened the box I thought 'wow that's huge' and wondered if it would work out as it takes up so much valuable sink space. I find that I use it so much that it stays in the sink and when I have to use the entire sink space it easily sits on the counter. I now think of it as a valuable addition to easy preparation.

It’s amazing it’s sturdy it sound. We’ve watched it about three or four times. I don’t see any indication of rust. Don’t think I would put it in the dishwasher though. It holds at least 2 to 3 pounds of pasta maybe more it’s sturdy easy to pick back up and dump into a pasta bowl or any other thing you want to use it for. Highly recommend.

Unfortunately, it arrived with a dent in it that I think will always be there (hence the 4 stars), but it still works great and I use it all. the. time. Seriously... I use it everyday. To wash a handful of berries or strain a whole pot of pasta. I basically just leave it in my sink so it's always there, ready to go. The adjustable handles are easy to use and keep the colander perfectly situated across my sink without any slipping or sliding. When I do need to set it aside, I have found that it sits easily on the counter and is very stable. It's larger than I expected, but in a good way, and has easily handled straining out a whole box of cooked pasta with plenty of room to spare.

Love this thing, it has really helped my workflow in the kitchen. For a salad, its large enough to throw everything in it and wash everything at once, then let it sit to drain for a minute or two over the sink. The only slight annoyance is small pieces can get stuck underneath the metal rim when you are turning things out.

Wish I had discovered this product years ago. Some people complain that things get stuck up inside the lip and it is hard to clean, but as long as you flip it quickly when dumping things out, it rarely gets things stuck in the lip. Also, I clean it by putting it over my sink upside down and use my sprayer on it and everything comes right out. A soft bristled brush with dish soap cleans it well. It is large and sturdy and fits over the sink well. The rubberized grips on the side handles keeps it in place well, too. Love this and love the warranty!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for me
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2013
Color: Stainless SteelSize: 13 x 9 inchesVerified Purchase
This is so much handier than the free standing type of colander. It's stable - no tipping over. It fits fine across either of my two sinks, with only a little adjustment of the handles. I use it perpendicular to me, so that when I pour out a pot of hot water and spaghetti, it presents a wider area to receive the pasta. Since it is suspended at counter level, it leaves plenty of room underneath for the water to drain from the sink. Being mesh, it could be dented I suppose, if one were not careful, but I store it upside down, in order to lessen the chances. And then of course, I don't put anything else on top of it. You could also hang it up. Also, being mesh, nothing gets through it except liquid. Small pieces or large - it works for most everything. I do recommend this product.
