Versatile Strainer
This has held up well and is still going strong. I have used it for a variety of scenarios and it is just an all around fantastic strainer. If and when this one breaks, I'll buy this again without a second thought. Spend a little more and get a quality product from a reliable company that will last. It doesn't feel cheap or flimsy and I can always get a firm grip on this strainer. My go to for rinsing 1 or 2 cups of rice. Coffee filters have a good fit for additional filtering too. I trust the KitchenAid brand.

Great, large-sized strainer
This is a very good strainer. It has very tiny holes in the mesh, so you can strain anything in it. I love that it's larger than the tiny ones I've owned in the past. It's large enough to strain a fairly large amount of pasta (like a package of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese). It's very sturdy and goes through the dishwasher beautifully.

Sturdy
Very sturdy and only needed to pass the liquid once. It didn't take long to strain, holes are perfect size.

Capacity is a bit wanting for my taste (no pun intended)
I am not sure if my family had a frat party with strainer or what, but I came home and it was coming apart at the seams.I use it frequently. I didn't feel like pulling on another pair of pants to hit the store so figured I would order it online and have it on my doorstep by the time I got off work.That part played out well.It is a nice weight, nice looking, works well but it is shallow.In my old one, I could throw in 3 cups of rice and rinse them off with room to spare. 2 cups was a challenge in this one.

Performs Many Tasks
I collect Kitchenaid items in the Empire red color. This is a great addition to my collection, and I can't say enough great things about it. The weave of the stainless steel mesh (won't rust!) is very fine so you can strain very tiny items and they won't fall through. You can also use it as a sifter of sorts, to sift flour or sprinkle powdered sugar on cakes/cookies. It's also a great size...you can scoop things from a large pot or bowl with it, or just use it for draining pasta, vegetables, etc. The hook around the edge helps it stay put when you place it on top of a bowl or pot. I would definitely recommend this item to others.
