Sturdy, Stylish, and Super Convenient!
This colander is fantastic! The stainless steel feels very heavy-duty and durable, and the 5-quart size is perfect for all my cooking needs. I love the easy-grip handles, they make it comfortable to use and hold even when it’s full of pasta or vegetables.. The self draining base works perfectly, so I don’t have to worry about water pooling, and the mirror-polished finish makes it look sleek in my kitchen. It’s also dishwasher safe, which is a huge plus for easy cleanup. Overall, a high-quality, practical colander that I’ll use for years!

5/5
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Really sturdy colander — it doesn’t bend or wobble, even with a full pot of pasta. It drains quickly and the handles are comfortable to hold. It is a bit bulky in the cabinet, but the durability makes up for it. Overall, great quality and worth it if you cook often.

A Kitchen Game-Changer — Built Like a Tank, Drains Like a Dream!
If you're tired of flimsy colanders that wobble, tip, or clog up with water, this is the upgrade you didn’t know you needed. The ExcelSteel Heavy Duty Colander is truly in a class of its own. From the moment I unboxed it, I could tell it was solid — the stainless steel feels substantial without being overly heavy, and the craftsmanship is excellent. The heavy-duty handles are securely riveted (no fear of them popping off under a load of pasta or veggies), and the self-draining solid ring base is an absolute game-changer. It keeps the colander stable on the sink or counter without tipping or shifting — even when I'm rinsing heavy potatoes or pouring in a full pot of pasta water. Another huge win: the perforations are perfectly sized and distributed for quick, efficient draining — no standing water at the bottom, no frustration. Plus, the 5-quart capacity is ideal for everything from washing fruits to draining big batches of spaghetti for family dinners. Bottom line: If you want a colander that’s sturdy, smartly designed, and will probably outlive your kitchen, don’t think twice. This is a must-have tool for any serious (or casual) home cook. Highly, highly recommend!

High quality
This colander is solidly built and feels very durable. The stainless steel is high quality, and it hasn’t shown any signs of rust or wear after multiple uses and washes. The 5-quart size is perfect for draining pasta, rinsing produce, or even washing rice. I really appreciate the stable base—it keeps the colander steady in the sink—and the handles are strong and easy to grip. The perforations are just right: water drains quickly without food slipping through. It also cleans up easily, either by hand or in the dishwasher. If you want a reliable, heavy-duty colander that will last for years, this is it. Highly recommend!

Sturdy. Won’t tip when noodles are dumped
I have three colanders and really didn’t need another one. However the three I had were dumping half my noodles and sink as I tried to drain them so I purchased this model and oh my goodness I will never look back. This model has a firm sturdy base keeps the noodles up off of my sink Drains well and doesn’t tip. I never lose noodles so I think this thing is the greatest. It’s an excellent size whether cooking something small or large the stainless steel is high-quality. I feel like I got a great value for my money. It’s not extremely thick, but it’s not flimsy enough that you could bend it and the whole size is on the large side for colander , but not so large that I’m losing any food.

Muy buen escurridor, el tamaño es grande, al ser de acero no hay inconveniente de que pudiera oxidarse, el material es de buen resistencia, llevo varios meses usándolo y el cuidado adecuado no se maltrata, producto recomendable.
