Numhew Colander

While the mesh is designed for efficient drainage, it is a standard fine mesh rather than an ultra-fine sieve. It works perfectly for pasta, vegetables, and larger grains, but very small items like quinoa may slip through.

Yes, this colander is made from high-quality stainless steel, which is naturally resistant to rust and corrosion. It is built for longevity and will maintain its finish even with regular exposure to water.

The colander features a raised, anti-tip base designed specifically to keep it stable on flat surfaces. Whether you are setting it on a countertop or inside the sink, the solid base prevents it from wobbling or tipping over when filled with heavy ingredients.

Yes, it is completely dishwasher safe. The stainless steel construction is durable enough to withstand high-heat wash cycles without warping or losing its shape.

The handles are designed for a secure grip, but because they are made of stainless steel, they can conduct heat. We recommend using a kitchen towel or oven mitt when handling the colander immediately after draining boiling water.

The colander is designed with a nesting shape, meaning it can easily stack with other bowls or cookware. Its 10.24-inch diameter is standard for a 5-quart capacity, making it compact enough to fit into most kitchen cabinets without taking up excessive room.
