Stainless Steel 18/8 Mesh Strainer, 30 Mesh Extra Fine Quinoa Sieve, with Solid Sturdy Handle, 9" Large Flour Filter with Wider Hook

Absolutely fabulous strainer, large enough for a good amount of flour, rice to strain without anything left over. Can be hung up or fitted easily in a cupboard.

Absolutely perfect! I needed to wash quinoa and when I used my current sieve it all went through the holes into the sink- disaster! Who knew that you could buy sieves with different mesh size. Delighted that with this new purchase all my quinoa was successfully washed and not one grain lost! It also arrived very promptly-thank you.

Fed up with standard strainers where the handle is spot welded to the frame. Invariably the weld gives way. This strainer has a solid metal handle bolted to the rim so should give years of use. Only complaint is that it was not well packaged (just put in a paper bag) and arrived with the mesh half caved in. I managed to push the mesh back into shape so it is nearly even. Hence, 4 stars.

I bought this as it has very sturdy, riveted handles - it was to replace one where the handle solder had failed. I am delighted with this one - the quality is outstanding and it's a big sieve, so it's a handy alternative to a colander for draining rice or small pasta or grains.

Very good quality but I had to return it it was to big for me .

I have been looking for a large metal sieve with fine mesh for a while, I could only find plastic ones. This is the right size for my needs, I use it to wash dried hibiscus flowers and I am able to strain from my large cooking pot to the other quite easily. It’s easy to handle and lightweight. Good value for money

Why did you choose this product over others?: Solid construction

The bowl part of this sieve is 22.5cm (9 inches) wide. This may be too large for some people. 20cm (8 inches) is more normal, so check your requirements. The mesh is fine and the rivets fixing the handle and wide hook to the bowl mean it's robust. So you can rinse ingredients as fine as quinoa, without it passing through, and tap them out into your pan without damaging the sieve. However, the handle, including its hanging-hole, and the wide hook opposite have some sharp-ish edges which could dig into your fingers and hand. It's such a pity that this aspect of finish has been neglected, as in all other respects it is well finished. As as a result, I can't recommend this sieve and will be returning it.
