Loved the colander until the foot broke off. May 18, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This colander was attractive and functioned great! I love that the holes weren't too big for my angel hair pasta. One day my daughter dropped it and one of the feet came off. I had to give it only 3 stars because of lack of durability. The foot should not have broken off just from being dropped.

luxury colander at its finest! March 20, 2006

I have to agree with the previous reviewers, wowzers. This thing is beautiful and well made. The interior has a beautiful mirror finish, and there are plenty of holes on the sides and bottom so it's functional too. Also, the handles and legs are welded on, with no screws that might trap food particles (as on my old strainer). It feels very sturdy!

The 8-5/8 inch colander is very large, perfect for my needs. I think its big brother, the 9 inch one is a bit too large.

$20 for a well made colander that you'll use everyday? I think it's worth it, definitely. Then you can also use it by itself to present fruits or vegetables, at dinner parties and such. It's that nice! Indulge yourself, it's worth it.

This looks wonderful hanging from the pot rack. After several washings, it has retained its bright silver appearance. It strains fairly fine particles, is easy to clean and seems durable. Unlike the plastic ones, it's not going to melt or break, and it has a nice enough look that you can set it on the table with your drained noodles if you like. Highly recommend.

It's not cheap, but it's gooood. Whether you need to drain pasta or filter out the mind control rays from the orbital satellites, this one'll do the job for a long time. Very solid. A little bit heavy, but that's the tradeoff--sure, you can get lighter (and wimpier) colanders, but why run the risk of having your mind being subverted by the CIA because they jack up the power a bit?

Seriously, it's a very good colander. You'll never need another one. The handles are welded on so there's no rivets to fall out, and it's about the right size for the typical pasta mess. Enjoy.
