OTOTO Monstrainer Pot Strainer - BPA-free & Dishwasher Safe Pasta Strainer - Made with Food Grade & Heat Resistant PP Material - 11.5x4.7x0.7 inches

It’s very self explanatory. It works fast & cleans up nice easy to store.

PROS: It's so cute and fun. I smile every single time I use it. I held off on purchasing one of these flat strainers - I had a fine mesh strainer & collendar, why would I need one? I got one on a bit of a sale this year and wonder why I waited so long. It's the first thing I pick up to rinse rice, drain pasta, etc. It's easy to store, easy to use, and fits in my dishwasher like a plate.CONS: Anyone with any limited mobility in their hands may find this a challenge. You also need to hold some type of potholder while draining the pot. Some rice will go through the holes (though the graduated sizing really helps with that). I feel like I'm reaching here.WOULD I BUY IT AGAIN? Yes! I kinda wish I'd have bought it sooner.

This strainer is sturdy, works good and fits nicely in a drawer. However, I am a senior with weak hands, and holding a large pan of pasta & water long enough to drain all the water out was extremely difficult. I much rather just dump the whole thing into my colander and be done with it. Also, it doesn't seem to work very well on smaller pans unless I'm doing something wrong.

This was the first product I bought from them because I often make a batch of pasta and will throw everything into one pot since I live alone and only need to feed myself. Colanders were too much of a hassle since they’re so bulky sometimes and I only need a quick strain. I came across this and thought it would be perfect since it fit my needs exactly and I was happily surprised that it did just that! It was really easy to use and I didn’t lose a single noodle plus it’s adorable look fits my style! I’ve seen so many of Ototo’s products and was always curious, but after knowing that these products are as easily functional as they are quirky, I’m definitely going to buy more in the future!

I love this
