Review: Great colander - Great colander, works well for washing rice, love that it expands to fit my sink. Good build and quality, I think it will hold up well. I think it was a good value, and it holds a nice amount of food for straining. I’m pleased with this purchase.
Review: EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED AND EVEN BETTER THAN ADVERTISED - ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!!! I have a double sink and it fits PERFECTLY over one of the sinks and is very sturdy. I have mobility issues and it is very difficult to drain spaghetti, etc. and have had so many "accidents" before finding this strainer. It is sturdy, does not slip around and is large enough to cover the sink area so no more food is wasted falling out of the strainer. I throw it in the dishwasher and it comes out clean and so easy to use. My only regret is not finding this years ago. Have already recommended this to friends and family and will definitely buy more as needed for myself or gift giving.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this made in usa or china?**
A: Well I have no idea. I rarely look anymore as most things we use are made in China. However, I find that American made products generally advertise that they're American made so going by that logic I'd say it's most likely made in china. It is a very high quality strainer and very convenient. I'm happy with it

**Q: What is the depth of this colendar**
A: My husband thinks 4.5 to 5 inches. It holds an entire pound of cooked bowtie pasta with room for another pound easily. Hope that helps.

**Q: How small the holes are? Can it be used to rinse quinoa?**
A: The holes are pretty small.  I've rinsed quinoa, but can't see why it wouldn't work at all.  I love mine!

**Q: Does the black rubber on the edges leaves marks on white porcelain sinks?**
A: I wouldn’t think so but I have stainless.
