Multi-purpose - easy to use and versatile. Pull up the sink to rinse vegetables and fruits, strain pasta, thaw food, or use as a pantry rack to dry dishes, cups, and small plates. It is also comfortable in the hand and can be used as a basket on the counter. No matter how you use it, we believe you will love the versatility of this filter.

Modern design - Adjustable, this colander expands from 14.5 \" to 19.5 \" to accommodate more or less space and fits most sinks when not in use. When stretched over the sink, the bottom will be raised from the bottom of the sink, preventing the drained pasta water from flowing back into the food.

Quick draining - The holes in the bottom of the basket are evenly distributed to facilitate quick draining. The holes can be up to 0.5 inches (about 0.5 cm) in diameter, so this funnel will not work with rice, quinoa, and most small grains.

BPA-FREE - This plastic sieve is BPA-free so you can use it to prepare healthy meals for your family. It is also very durable, sturdy, and heat resistant up to 220 degrees Fahrenheit (about 100 degrees Celsius).

Dishwasher safe - Unlike some traditional filters, this filter is easy to clean and can be washed in the top rack of the dishwasher without rusting.
