Colander MODERN KITCHEN KITCHEN&GO 36.00 x 30.50 x 27.00 cm, stainless-steel mesh, drain holes

The MODERN KITCHEN KITCHEN&GO colander is a stainless-steel mesh strainer sized 36.00 x 30.50 x 27.00 cm, designed for rinsing and draining vegetables, fruits and pasta. Its fine metal mesh captures small particles while allowing water to pass quickly through multiple drain holes. The shape and dimensions provide a roomy capacity for everyday food preparation and serving tasks in home kitchens.

Advantages

This colander combines a fine stainless-steel mesh with strategically placed drain holes to speed up water removal and reduce splashing. The materials resist staining and are suitable for frequent contact with food. Its generous size accommodates larger volumes of produce or pasta, making rinsing and draining more efficient compared with smaller strainers. The open mesh design also helps air circulate for light cooling and draining after washing.

Suitable for

• Rinsing and draining vegetables and fruits
• Straining cooked pasta and noodles
• Draining canned foods and thawed ingredients
• Temporary serving or holding of washed produce
• General kitchen prep where rapid drainage is required

When it may not be suitable

The fine mesh is not intended for heavy-duty tasks such as supporting very dense or frozen blocks of food; extremely heavy loads can deform the frame. It may also be less convenient when washing very small grains like rice unless used with additional fine sieving equipment to prevent loss of grains.

Key specifications

• Material: stainless-steel fine mesh with a supporting rim and frame
• Dimensions: approximately 36.00 x 30.50 x 27.00 cm (length x width x height)
• Drainage: multiple drain holes plus fine mesh for fast water removal
• Capacity: roomy bowl suitable for family-sized portions and larger batches
• Finish: metal/silver, corrosion-resistant surface suitable for food contact

How to use

Place the colander in the sink or on a stable flat surface. Add the food to be rinsed or drained and tilt or shake gently to accelerate water flow through the mesh and drain holes. For hot pasta, pour boiling contents carefully into the colander while holding it steady to avoid spills. After use, rinse the mesh under running water to remove residues and allow to dry thoroughly before storage.

What to consider before purchase

• Check the physical dimensions to ensure the colander fits your sink and storage space
• Consider the volume you typically prepare to confirm the size meets family or single-person needs
• Verify compatibility with your cleaning preferences (hand wash or dishwasher) and any specific care instructions

Usage recommendations

To prolong the life of the stainless-steel mesh, avoid aggressive scrubbing with hard metal brushes and allow the colander to air dry or wipe with a soft cloth after washing. For small grains, use an additional fine sieve to prevent loss through the mesh.
