Linden Sweden Jonas Conical Strainer - 18/10 Stainless Steel Strainer for Mashing Food & Draining Fruits & Vegetables - Made in Sweden - Double Lined with Handles for Mounting on Kitchen Sink - 5 1/4"

This strainer is great looking and extremely durable. It is expensive but the quality of it is great. This strainer will fit over bowls, pots and if you have a double sink like I do you can hang it over the sink. I really like that. I made a strawberry mixture to put over cheesecake and biscuit shortcake using 2lbs of strawberries. The mixture accumulated a lot of juice after sitting for a while and I did not want all that juice so I put the entire 2lbs of cut up strawberries in this strainer and there was still room left. I was really impressed to see over a cup of juice come through this strainer before I pressed on the berries. I was able to stir the berries without any problem. It is rather deep so you have to use deep bowl or deep pot if you want to keep what ever you're straining. I am going to get the larger 10" size too. If you don't mind spending a few extra dollars, this is a great conical strainer for many uses that should last a very long time as long as you dry it thoroughly after washing. I would recommend this to any serious cook.

Wife loves it. Good choice for straining fruit for jams, jellies and butters.Sure we will find other uses.

This strainer is sturdy and personally preferred because it is NOT mesh, making it easier to clean in my opinion. I wanted a cone shaped strainer without paying a fortune i could use atop pitchers and some of my mixing bowls. The only real complaint were the obnoxious stickers (two) stuck right on the outer side of the strainer that were not easy to peel. Had to soak strainer in hot water and scrape off sticker residue. Overall seems like it should last a very long time. Love stainless steel products too.

I use this strainer at least 2-3 times a week or more. It's perfectly sized for those times you don't need a full-size colander or mesh. It's also strong enough that you can really push on the contents with the back of a spoon when you want to get all of the juice or flavor out of something. I have used it for the following kitchen tasks...-single serve pasta/ramen-fresh squeezed OJ-soups and stocks-rinsing fresh herbs-sifting flour-topping desserts with confectionery sugar-ricing potatoes I would be lost without this and it's replaced about five other gadgets that I've stopped using since I bought this.

As described in the product specifications ( size, steel, etc). Very good quality. strainer holes are perfect to catch very small fruit seeds, etc. when straining. Replaced wire mesh strainer with this product.

I have this same strainer in the larger 8-1/4" size and both are the only strainers I use. They are perfect for every task, and I don't think I'll be needing any other sizes.

WOW.... this picture looks like you are getting an actual person sized cooking utensil. The handle is so short that i'll probable get burned by the steam trying to heat my pasta. if you are looking for something with a VERY, VERY short handle then this is the item for you.

This strainer is very small it will hold approximately 1 cup of material. IMO the recommended pestle is too large for this strainer. You will have more luck using the back of an old spoon.
