My DSIL gave me this several years ago for Christmas, but I just last week started trying to do some baking. I was making a cake yesterday and got this thing out of the box for the first time.
I found it to be totally useless. Half the time I had to stop and take the handmixer (which is all it really is) off use it the way that it is truly intended, as a handmixer.
I washed it, put it back in the box, and if anyone wants this piece of junk, email me and you can come pick it up!

Corelle Coordinates Callaway 8-Ounce Acrylic Glass, Set of 6 Review

The glasses are very pretty. I haven't used them yet because it was so difficult to remove the sticker on the first one...... when I have the time, I'll go at each of them. Why, oh why, would a manufacturer proud of his product, use such nearly permanent adhesive on the finished product?

Oxo Stainless Steel Strainer, Double Rod Review

A passionate home cook that has been honing her cooking skills for the last 25 years, concentrating on Italian food for the last 10 years, writes this review. My favorite cookbooks are "The Professional Chef" by the Culinary Institute and "Culinary Artistry. Cooking is my form of therapy. I purchased this product when I began using citrus juice in many of my meals. This product is very useful and has many more applications than just straining juice.
Pros:
1.Excellent for straining citrus juice to keep the seeds out of your foods
2.Fits well over the top of a blender jar
3.Hooks easily to the side of pans to keep if from slipping
4.Great for straining spent vegetables from sauces
5.Excellent for removing small pasta from boiling water
6.Handle stays cool so that you don't need a potholder
7.Nice flour sifter
8.Makes a nice yogurt strainer for making a healthy non-fat yogurt cheese (line the inside with a paper towel or a couple of layers of cheese cloth)
Cons:
1.Cleaning is a little tedious (I find it works best if you soak it in another vessel that is filled with hot soapy water and use a brush to remove the residual "gunk")
Overall, the concept is good and the product is useful and well made. I recommend this product to anyone that loves to cook.

Okay here's the skinny on strainers: cheap ones can bend under an incoming load of pasta and hot water, they can rust, and if they don't have a loop opposite the handle you end up trapped at the sink while the water drains. A strainer of superior quality on the other hand is a tool you'll use with pleasure for many years.
