WincoStrainer with Single Fine Mesh, 8-Inch Diameter, Medium, Stainless Steel, Tan,Silver

I've needed one of these for so long and for the low price I don't know why I didn't get one sooner! This strainer is awesome.Nice wooden handle that feels sturdy to hold. The little feet at the end are a bit curved so I feel like it sits on a pot more securely than others I've had. It feels substantially built overall.I've drained stock, pasta noodles, canned beans and it's been fantastic and easy to clean. As far as size and capacity of what it can hold, I have fit 2 cans of 10 oz beans in the strainer at once to give you an idea.Good quality and great value.

A great strainer at a resonable price! Nice quality!

The connection between the handle and the ring holding the mesh is flimsy and feels like it would break when trying to shake excess water out of 2 cups rice or elbow pasta.Pros- Can be use to wash 2 cups of rice or beans, or drain similar amount of cooked pasta.- CheapCons- Must wait for gravity to eventually stop dripping as it can only handle very light shaking. For washing rice or beans this really doesn't matter as it means the rice just contains a tablespoon of water "extra" at the start of cooking (so remove a tablespoon of water from the cooking liquid if exact measurements are needed). For draining pasta the remaining water will water down your sauce.I have not tried using it as an improvised sifter but the flimsy handle connection doesn't seem ideal.Overall I'll keep it for washing/draining beans and rice which is why I bought it. A solid colander works better for pasta because it will take an aggressive shake (but rice would slide through the holes).

Great handheld mesh strainer!I have a smaller strainer that holds one can of black beans snuggly or whatever but it is not large enough for larger quantity foods.This strainer is large enough to hold a can of bean and then some. This is now my go to all purpose strainer.It seems to be well made and sturdy so it should last for years to come.

This is the perfect size! It’s light weight and sturdy. Easy to use and clean!

Works great sturdy

5 stars for this level of qualityGives a little where handle meets basketOverall construction is not for heavy useGreat efficiency for lightweight use

It is a good strainer, bought about a year ago, but where the metal goes into the wood has began to bend and it is not as sturdy. For clarification, I have not used it much in this year. A bit disappointed.
