Customers are satisfied with the quality of the food strainer. They mention that it is the most robust colander they have ever used, sits sturdy, and has a solid ring base. The brand is reliable and durable, and it holds up well in the dishwasher. It maintains its shape, doesn't dent easily, and doesn''t start tarnishing. The strainer is beautifully made and does not have a design defect.

Good Kitchen Colander; 5 Quart
4 Stars
Good Kitchen Colander; 5 Quart
Now that I'm retired and cook every night, I decided it's time to have a good colander to drain pasta. My decision was aided by the demise of the old plastic drugstore colander, which developed a crack, then split down the side. I read the reviews here and decided to order this one. I wanted:* stainless steel*handles that are an extension of the colander, rather than riveted or welded*large enough for a full 16 oz box of spaghetti to drain in*sturdy enough not to be dinged or cracked easilyUntil I read the reviews, I was unsure what kind of base I wanted. I decided to go with the little feet at the base rather than a rim, because others had commented that while a ring at the base for the colander to stand on is perhaps sturdier and steadier, it also provides a place for boiling water to pool, giving the cook an opportunity to scald herself. I knew that if anyone in this whole world is clumsy enough to burn herself making spaghetti, that person is me. Hence, the little black feet.I also looked at the colander sets. Do I need a nesting set of colanders? Not really. I don't drain rice; if you cook rice correctly, it doesn't need to be drained. This colander will be used for pasta and hard-boiled eggs, and that's all. (And if a cook purchases a whole set of colanders, she must also find a place to store them all. No.) I also looked at sizes, with 3 quart and 5 quart appearing most often. I realized I had NO IDEA what size my current colander--the broken plastic one--is. 3 quarts sounded pretty big to me, but then I realized that a whole box of cooked spaghetti, once drained, would probably not fit into a 3 quart saucepan, and so probably also not into a 3 quart colander; I ordered the 5 quart size instead. I am really glad; see the photos attached, which show this colander alongside my old plastic hunk of junk. This colander is actually a bit smaller than the previous one, but it works for us. I took it out of the package, ran it through the dishwasher to sanitize it, then made spaghetti with clam sauce for dinner. Ran it through the dishwasher again--bottom rack was fine--and put it away.The decision was assisted by the brand name. OXO is a good middling brand, not too expensive and reasonably reliable. It's a little pricey, and that's the only reason no fifth star is included, but my hope is that having laid out the money, I won't have to buy another. Based on what I know from one use and two washings, I would buy this colander again.
