Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Joyce Chen Stainless Steel Strainer 5 Inch
Customer Review: Works well, but protruding wires shred sponges and towels
Summary: 3 Stars
As others have said, strainers with wide mesh like this drain boiled and fried items better than typical screen-type strainers. Surface tension of water and oils get carried along easier with finer mesh. This strainer allows you to tap off excess water/oil easily and will drip less than slotted spoons or fine mesh.
My problem is that the ends of the wires wrapped around the outer ring stick out and were not wrapped flush. I discovered this by trying to hand wash the strainer - it shredded the sponge I used. Forget about wiping dry with a towel as it'll be snagged by the wires. The only practical way to hand wash is to swish in soapy water and air dry.
I spent a few minutes with a needle nose pliers in an attempt to bend the ends around so they don't snag so readily, but it still is a problem. I guess this strainer will be 'dishwasher only' for me.
O.K. for the price, but be aware of the wires...
