Nest Colanders Stackable Set with Easy-Pour Corners and Vertical Handle, 2-piece, Gray

I love the colanders! I use them pretty much on a daily basis. Sturdy construction. Their shape and nesting ability save lots of storage space. I also love the handles. This helps when you are draining things that were boiling in water.

Nice & sturdy and colander sieve holes are perfect for proper straining/draining. Easy to clean, and oblong oval design makes it easy to pour the pasta/veggies/etc into a container. The stackable feature makes for easy storage.

I love these Joseph Joseph Nest Colanders! They feel incredibly sturdy and stack perfectly, which is a huge win for saving cabinet space. The two separate sizes are super practical—I use the smaller one for quick rinses and the larger one for bigger tasks like pasta or washing veggies. But here’s the kicker: I found a bonus use that’s been a game-changer. In my household, we wash dishes by hand, and I started using the larger colander to collect all the leftover organic waste—veggie scraps, peels, whatever. I let it sit for a bit to drain off any excess moisture before dumping it into the trash. Guess what? No more messy leaks in the garbage can that end up stinking up the house. It dries out the rubbish just enough to keep everything clean and odor-free. Plus, while washing dishes, all that soggy waste has a home, and my sink looks so much cleaner during and after the wash. It’s like an unexpected bonus for kitchen organization! The handles on these colanders are seriously amazing too. Pouring contents into pots, salad bowls, or even storage containers is effortless—no awkward spills or wobbly grips. It’s one of those small design features that make a big difference when you’re prepping a meal. Honestly, I didn’t expect colanders to be part of my trash-management strategy and meal prep routine, but here we are! Practical, sturdy, and multi-functional—couldn’t ask for more. Would I buy it again? Without a doubt!

I don't have much to add to previous reviews. I purchased this to replace a collapsible collander after the silicone cracked. This thing is sturdy and easy to store in my very cramped plasticware cabinet. I actually sit it on its side with the handles facing up to save some space. It sits solidly in the sink, and doesn't move when you pour things into it. Based on some other reviews, it's worth noting that you shouldn't hold the handle while you strain hot liquids. The handle was easy to grip and maneuver, even when the basket was full. I strained 3-4 quarts of stock through it for its first use, and clean up was easy - no residue left behind.

I make pasta almost every day and this one is great as a strainer. Just be careful when you first pour into it as it can move away as you dump the water with pasta in it. Otherwise, it is a great tool and does the job.

Handy for washing produce or draining pasta. Thought I would use the little one, but I think in the time I've had it only used the inside one once or twice. Little nested colander mostly gets in the way. Good 4/5

I really like the green color and the design. The small one is perfect for straining kefir grains. I don't like the usual style of using a spoon to strain the kefir through the typical strainer because it's too much work. With the small strainer, however, I just hold the handle and swirl the strainer so kefir drains into a jar with minimal effort, no spoon needed. Nice thing is that the small holes prevent kefir grains from falling through. The bigger one with bigger holes is also good for washing berries and veggies. This company also makes a rectangular version for the strainer. I wish they also make a smaller rectangular strainer that nestles inside the bigger rectangular one.

I like having two sizes and that they nest together. They are sturdy and the handles make it easy to pour out the contents.
