Q: how many quarts does this hold?

submitted by judi - 3 years ago
  • A: Using dimensions given, simple math equates as 5.5x8.5x12=561cu inches which equals 9.7 quarts. I estimate for my use between 6-8qt. is a good bet.

    submitted byBrazer - 3 years ago
  • A: It is better to allow for shape of screen area and have a realistic use of 6qt. It does hold 1 pound of pasta cooked.

    Not Dishwasher Safe

    djohnson15 - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
    The product description online says this colander is dishwasher safe; however, upon arrival, the cardboard clearly states “hand wash only.” Very disappointing. I’ll be returning this product unused as a result.

    Very useful with over the sink feature, but nit the easiest to clean. I rinse right after use to help avoid dried on foods that are different to cleanoff later.

    kat - 2 years ago
    This, unfortunately, begins to rust which then makes the expandable handles impossible to expand or collapse, not to mention unsafe and unhealthy to clean food in. The screws loosen as well and rust up so bad it’s unable to be fixed. Highly disappointed in this purchase especially it being on the pricier side. It was good while it lasted but I’d opt to buy a different material, for sure.

    Wanted to love this as it’s sturdy and I usually love anything Kitchen Aid. But it’s absolutely miserable to clean or keep clean. Pasta, rice, fruit, anything immediately gets stuck and gunky bc it’s a tight mesh. Design fail.

    Well and cheaply made at the same time. Has rust already on the screws and I’m really just disappointed in this product. I would not recommend buying it. It’s big, hard to store and unfortunately just isn’t built to last. I haven’t even had it one year and I’m trying to get rid of it

    This is a great over the sink strainer

    5 out of 5 stars
    Brazer - 3 years ago, Verified purchaser
    I like that is over the sink and doesn't tip like my large stainless steel 3 leg strainer, plus the stainless mesh this has is great for all my needs. Now I can wash and drain anything without the usual mess, since I have limited use of one hand. I recommend this if you can spend the few extra dollars for Kitchen-Aid quality. I just hope it lasts for years being used daily and since I don't have a dishwasher, I will be washing it by hand and drying by hand, before hanging on wall cabinet by sink.
