This is what I wanted in a colander, and this is what I got in this colander!
- Big enough to handle a pound of pasta. (I bought the 5 quart)
- Made from Stainless Steel, which is sturdy, and safe.
- Small enough holes that fine pasta will stay in the colander, but big enough that they don't slow down draining.
- Easy to clean. I can't stand it when the holes in a strainer collect food particles that harden in and become nearly impossible to clean. This hasn't happened at all with this colander. Still looks new!
- Feet that won't scratch my sink, but will also hold the colander up out of the sink to allow water to drain away, rather than being held under the colander and seeping out slowly.
- Handles that don't get hot.
I also really like the shape of the colander. It is deeper than some, but has a smaller diameter, which means that it doesn't take up as much space in my cupboard, and it easily nests with other items that I have in my cupboard (popcorn bowl, steamer, salad spinner, etc.). Also, it is big enough to easily handle a pound of pasta, but because of the shape, it doesn't seem like overkill to use this big colander to rinse a few veggies from the garden. This colander has replaced my other two colanders completely. They are now both in my yard sale box, and this gem has become one of my favorite items in my kitchen.
There is some burring around the holes but not enough to really be noticeable. I generally just give it a quick rinse and chuck it in the dishwasher anyway so I don’t have any problem with it tearing up my sponges.
The little legs are sturdy and keep it level and quite stable, and the coated handles are comfortable even after pouring boiling water over it.
All in all, I can’t find anything at this point that I would change about it.
Top reviews from other countries
Slightly too small for even a medium portion of veg, and the lack of proper handles means it's almost guaranteed that my hand will be splashed with (usually boiling hot) water.
Definitely not up to the design standard of the rest of the Oxo range.
Wouldn't recommend - hunt for a great colander goes on.
