This would be an excellent sturdy colander, shiny and amply-supplied with holes of varying sizes, if only it were supported by individual feet rather than an un-vented ring which excels at forming a seal around certain drains one might place it over, making for occasionally awkward problems with liquids backing up while colanding.

Although I love this colander, it does a fast and efficient job, I was disappointed that it was not made in the USA as listed.It is made in Korea and I probably would not have paid the price if I had known that. It is a very handy tool though.

Very heavy duty. Not worth paying a premium for though.

I have been waiting a while to purchase this colander. I had it on my wish list for quite a while. Lets face it, it is quite expensive for a.......colander.<br>When I received the colander I was impressed. The signature stainless shine of All-Clad. HEFT. This colander is every bit of HEAVY GAUGE. If I ever find myself in battle, I could use this thing as a helmet. It has the standard All-Clad loop handles, which are more than adequate to handle this colander when it is full. The base is nice and stable so the colander does not tip or even move as you dump a pot of pasta or boiled potatoes into it.<br>I am an All-Clad fan. I have assembled a nice collection of their pots, pans and tools over the years. I am quite happy with the addition of this colander. Now, I have this colander's smaller version on my wish list. I won't wait years to purchase it.

You might pay a little more, but you only get what you pay for. The wife loves them. Nuff said.
