KitchenCraftStainless Steel Fine-Mesh Kitchen Sieves (3-Piece Set), Silver

Three sizes with the smallest quite small but all useful. Robust enough and not rusting. The handles are nice and simple and sufficiently light that they don't overbalance the sieve so it falls to the floor like smome fancy handles do. I think even though I put them in the dishwasher they will last well.

These turned out to be smaller than expected but they are well made and serve the purpose. Only time will tell if they will rust with use...

Considering the price, I am not impressed with the design of these. They look better than cheaper sieves, but are not very sturdy in reality. The handles are spot welded to the rim, and it doesn't take much to break them loose. Worse, though, is the fact the construction means they cannot really be cleaned properly, and I imagine many people will not realise this immediately (or at all, possibly). It was only after I used the sieve with something dark, and after I thought it was clean, dark pieces continued to appear in the sieve that I realised. The metal edging around the netting is constructed in such a way that if anything reaches the top, outside edge of the meshing, it then gets trapped between the edge of the metal and the netting, as there is hollow space where the front of the edging metal comes down lower than the back. As the metal is curved around the rim, but sits tightly against the mesh, it means there is a space, open to one side (the mesh at the back), and sealed on the other (the metal edging at the front), where food and dirt gets trapped, and is not easily removed by normal cleaning, as it just gets flushed around inside the rim, and only flushed out of the rim space if you lift the rim away from the mesh where the dirt is, so that it can escape. And the sieve is not designed to allow you to hold the mesh away from the edging, obviously, as it's supposed to be tightly joined. It is possible, but awkward to achieve. The space is not large, about 2-3 mm wide, and about 1-2 mm deep, I would guess, but it goes all round the edge of the sieve, and the dirt/food can move freely inside this space, but not easily get out of it. This could be a real health and safety issue, with food getting trapped in there, and rotting or moulding and then getting released into food which is being prepared, because the movement (saying tapping it against the bowl underneath, which is incidentally what caused the handle to come loose) causes it to escape under the rim. If you wash by hand, this might not be such an issue (if you immerse sieve in water), but they are advertised as dishwasher safe, and if like me, you put them in the dishwasher, I am not sure they'll be properly clean. I only realised this was happening after repeated use of the sieves, and only because I washed one by hand after using it on dark matter, and kept seeing food particles dropping into the sieve, after it seemed to be totally clean. Possibly, it would get flushed out when immersed in water,(I was rinsing under running water) but I don't think sieves should be constructed like this: the rim should be straight, in line with the mesh or end flush on both sides, to avoid this. I am not even sure how material gets up there, but it does. I had made sure to get everything removed from under the rim last time I cleaned the largest sieve, and most recently used it simply to drain oil from a handful of fried mushrooms, which sat well below the rim inside the sieve and there were dark particles that look like mushroom under the rim again, I noticed afterwards when cleaning. Even apart from this issue, I think these are over-priced for what they are. The material used is good quality, but they are not well-made. I didn't get round to returning the set after the handle came loose (only on one side, so it can still be used), but would not recommend or buy again at this price. The only good thing I can say about them is that they do not rust, even when washed in the dishwasher, but as they're stainless steel, they shouldn't really, anyway... They were the size advertised when I bought them, but this was a while ago. At the time, I couldn't find a cheaper set advertised as dishwasher proof and available with Prime delivery, but either I didn't look properly, or selection has improved since then. But, checking the photos of currently advertised items, I have seen that some quite expensive items have exactly the same issue with the rim and food being trapped underneath. In one photo of a sieve currently being advertised as the perfect Xmas gift, the sieve is held upside down over a saucepan and you have the option to hover to magnify, you can actually see a piece of food trapped underneath the rim, which has then obviously happened during the short demo use for photos, so it is clearly an issue with this design, not just with these particular ones, but with other brands, too.

Sturdy set and worth the money paid

Household cookery excellent product

Not at all what I was expecting, the three sieves did not nest, which was the reason for the purchase. Because of this I did not really check the quality of the product, as the return deadline was quite short.

Good value. Lightweight and easy to handle - they do what they're supposed to.

Easy to use and did their job as well as they should. No problems. Time will tell how long they last but they look sturdier than my earlier set.
