QUALITY MATTERS ? We use food-grade BPA-Free plastic, so you can safely use this colander to strain hot foods or wash fresh greens when preparing healthy meals for your family. It's also highly durable, sturdy, and dishwasher safe. STRAIN IT. DRY IT. RINSE IT ? Use in hand to rinse vegetables and fruits, on the countertop as a basket, or over the sink as a strainer or to air-dry dishes. No matter how you use it, we think you'll love the versatility of Blue Ginkgo's Sink Colander. DESIGN MATTERS - Draining pasta, fruits, and vegetables is made easy thanks to the over the sink colander from Blue Ginkgo. The colander slides to expand from 14.5 to 19.5 inches to hold more food and dishes and accommodate different sized sinks, while the two handles are comfortable to hold and rest on the lip of a sink, allowing you to strain foods easily. DRAINS QUICKLY ? Evenly spaced holes and curved corners make straining and draining easy and fast. Placed over the sink, you can safely drain your cooked pasta and veggies or rinse vegetables and fruit without losing carefully prepared food. The holes are up to 5 mm in diameter, so this strainer is not appropriate for rice, quinoa, or other small grains. LOW MAINTENANCE ? Made of food-grade plastic, this colander is top-rack dishwasher safe and will never rust. Its low profile and adjustable design mean it can be stored in most cupboards or be placed on permanent duty in your kitchen sink, ready to help with multiple tasks.
