Product Description: With a flip of the wrist, you can easily drain pasta, rinse strawberries, vegetables and more. This versatile 6" colander is expertly designed with fine mesh for complete straining and a broad, soft rubber handle for a sure grip and easier lifting.
Amazon.com Review: A required tool in the home of a seasoned cook, this strainer has a fine-grid mesh for draining the excess liquid from just about any food, including fruit, vegetables, and pasta. The wide stainless- steel brim and loop make it easy for the strainer to rest on almost any bowl or pot, and the double-rod construction makes it extra sturdy. And it comes with a hanging loop for convenient storage. The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably and softly, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands, while providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets are constructed of, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

Rating: - EXCELLENT PRODUCT
I've been using this strainer for a long time now almost daily and highly recommend it. It proven to be sturdy and durable.
Rating: - Worked well, maybe too well
I was making jelly for the first time, and bought this (since the recipe recommended a fine mesh sieve). I should have probably bought a much larger one, since it didn't hold very much. I was straining apples and peppers for the jelly, and it worked very well.
Rating: - Sturdy & Reliable
This strainer is perfect for small jobs around the kitchen (I use it for draining freshly squeezed lemon juice. While it seemed a bit pricey, it's strong construction and reinforced edges make it the perfect kitchen tool!
Rating: - Excellent Quality
It's amazing what a difference quality tools will make in the kitchen. My old strainers did the job. They... well, strained. But they were getting rusty and they just felt cheap. These strainers simply feel great. The handle has a good grip to it, the mesh will have you rubbing it a little when nobody's looking, and it just looks classy. The 6-inch size is a little small for most tasks, but it can be used to fish out pasta from a pot, or strain a small batch. The price is a little steep for what I'd normally want to pay for a simple tool, but it was worth it.
