Definitely an upgrade from my old strainer! I have a Joyce Chen Strainer which I thought was very nice...until I got this one! This is similar in design, but the Chen one has the basket made from twisted wire, it is almost like miniature chicken wire. If you ever have run your hand over chicken wire, you know it is scratchy. The trouble I had with the scratchy surface was that things seemed to get stuck on it (such as having fragile noodles tear) and it was hard to clean (either you tore up your sponge, got your dish brush bristles stuck in it, or scratched your hand!)This one is made one long spiral of wire arranged concentrically so there are no sharp edges of wire and it is very smooth. Further, the wire on the other model is not as strong as the rings on this one, and it may get bent in your cupboard...not so with this design. Also,...Read more

This accessory is PERFECT for cooking, frying, steaming various foods in your wok. It can also be used for pulling delicate ravioli out of a rolling boil or other pastas from their boiling water pot. Highly recommended.

This is a 'must have' kitchen tool. It is extremely handy for lifting large objects from boiling water, such as all my tomatoes I canned this summer. They were a breeze to lift in and out of the water for skinning. I'm sure this would work just as well for peaches, but unfortuately, we didn't have a crop of peaches this year. But when we do, I will be ready with my lifter!
