This is a great strainer.  What I really love is the size including the length of it.  What's great is that it fits perfectly across my sink so that I can just set it there and pour into it, rather than having to hold it while pouring (which would be messy).  I didn't know how much of a difference this would make before I bought it and I'm glad that I got lucky in purchasing this item.  My sink is a typical size but if you have a very large sink this might not work for you.
