Each mesh strainer features a double-ear support to sit securely on pots and pans, mixing bowls and other food preparation containers, keeping both hands free for other tasks, like measuring and pouring. Use them like a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds, skins and other fibrous bulk and smaller bits for even consistencies and creamier textures in soups and sauces, pastes and purees. No more lumps! These food strainers are versatile kitchen accessories. Rinse legumes, rice, and grains before cooking, catch seeds and pulp when juicing fresh lemons, or drain and strain infusions of herbs or mulling spices. They double nicely as a sifter, too. Powdered ingredients like flour, crushed spices and confectioners’ sugar or ground nut, oat and grain flours tend to settle and compact during packaging and shipping. Hic’s fine mesh strainers remove clumps from these ingredients and aerate them for even lighter, fluffier baked goods. Their non reactive material is perfect for use with more acidic foods, like tomato and citrus. Made from fine mesh with a durable plastic and double-ear design for added stability. Hic’s double-ear fine-mesh food strainer will not retain tastes or odors and impart flavors on foods. Top-rack dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Hangs for convenient storage.

I bought this strainer just for kefir, and it works great!It's just big enough to hold one load of kefir which I made in 16 oz mason jar.I also appreciate it is easy to clean it, just rinse it with kitchen faucet spray.

I bought this on a Friday evening and it arrived on Sunday afternoon. Item arrived quickly and in good condition. The strainer is all white plastic with nylon mesh and the diameter of the strainer measures 5 inches. The fit and finish is good. The plastic is sturdy, smooth, and has no burrs leftover from manufacturing. This strainer fits and sits perfectly on my 1 Quart (aka 1L/1000ml/4cup) Pyrex glass measuring cup. I bought this for making/straining milk kefir at home. The size of the mesh is also perfect for straining the kefir grains out of the finished kefir. It can filter even the smallest kefir grains while still allowing the kefir through and the size of the mesh helps break up the coagulated milk proteins into finer particles making for a smoother kefir texture. This strainer works perfectly for my needs and is easy to clean.

These nylon strainers come in one large plastic bag, but inside that bag, they are individually wrapped. I have attached three photos to show packaging, the four assorted sizes with a visual aid to help you 'see' the different sizes.The first photo shows the strainers before I unpack them.The second photo shows all four strainers, and to help with visual sizing, I put a one cup pyrex measuring cup inside the biggest strainer (7 inches).The third photo shows that same measuring cup inside the second biggest strainer along with a 16 ounce plastic bottle over the top of the third and fourth largest strainers.The sizes are truly a nice variety and should handle most of your needs, unless you're cooking a large pot of pasta, spaghetti, or needing to perhaps rinse a large amount of vegetables or fruit, then you'll need to grab your colander.These strainers are well made, not flimsy. The double ear allows for security and stability when placing over the top of a receptacle such as a pan or bowl. The nylon is a nice strength, the mesh is quite tiny making them perfect for rinsing quinoa, and they are easy to rinse clean. The handles and ears are sturdy, and the handles have a handy 'hanging hole'.I am very happy with my purchase, and was pleased to see the care that was taken in packaging this set of nylon strainers. I bought mine because I make my own kefir and prefer not to use a metal strainer when draining my kefir grains.As long as you take care of your strainers, use the correct size for your project, wash, dry and put them away when you've completed your task, this nice set should last you for years. Given the variety of sizes I shouldn't need to buy another set for a very, very long time. My bigger projects will call for my colander.Summary:Nicely packaged, well made, nice variety of sizes, nylon not metal so no worries about interaction with acidic foods, will last several years. I feel you will be well pleased should you decide to buy this set.I gave a four star as opposed to a five star rating because even though quite sturdy, they are plastic and if not used correctly, such as using the right size for your project, conceivably, they could crack. That said, I again stress that this set is quite sturdy and will service you well.

These are perfect for making milk kefir, the non-metal does not interfere with the ferment, the mesh is the perfect size, the different size strainers fit perfectly over mason jars, measuring cups and bowls. Not the sturdiest piece of gear, but it seems durable enough, I don't anticipate it breaking with careful use. If you are looking for a set for milk kefir, this one will serve you well.

I bought the 4 piece set that gives me choices to do variety of straining based on content type, size and amount. I use one of these for kefir straining and am happy with it as it is light to carry, easy to clean, and nylon mesh makes it safe to those grains. Worth it.

Easy to clean. I had to make do with other strainers until this arrived. It was slow to arrive. I like it for straining kefir. The plastic sieve was recommended by the company where I bought the kefir starter.

This is a must for milk Kéfir. It's much better than cheese-clothing it.I use this with a canning funnel and silicon mini spatula. Works great and easy to clean after. Would recommend.

I make milk kefir at home and part of the process requires avoiding metal utensils and strainers. I bought this nylon strainer specifically for separating the kefir grains from the liquid, and it works very well. It's easy to clean, and there is no odor or wear showing after using this strainer every few days for over a year now. It's not the sturdiest strainer, but it does the job well.
