I purchased this strainer to make greek yogurt. I was worried that the strainer would not be fine enough and would allow yogurt to slip through with the whey as it does in a normal mesh strainer, thankfully that is not the case! The mesh on this strainer - while not so fine as a tea strainer - is quite fine given the size. The construction of the metal rings and handle is quite sturdy and I have no worried about it bending or breaking especially given the reinforced basket. It's a little too tall to fit nicely in the 10" china cap strainer stand but it still gets the job done. This strainer holds about 1 gallon of liquid.

It says 8" but i just didn't realize how huge this chinois strainer would be. It is great for straining buckets of stock, ferments, etc. but a bear to store in a small kitchen. It is so useful and sturdy though and the fine mesh snags all the bits you don't want floating around!

Despite it's fine mesh, this chinois had held up to large quantities of chicken carcasses, stone fruits, and raspberry seeds with aplomb, maintaining a rust and gouge free appearance one year into it's use. Maybe just a bit too big for residential use, but I love it!

We use this about once a week, so relative to other tools in our kitchen, it doesn't get that much use. It broke in less than 3 months. The wires broke loose gradually.

This strainer overall works great. It can be difficult to clean, but the mesh is very fine and does a great job straining out solid bit.

The reinforced is the way to go. We would constantly but the ones without and they would break at a faster rate. Great to have the reinforcement and they last much longer.

This strainer is tough and durable and perfect for straining larger capacities. Nothing gets through their tight wired netting. Just one more kitchen utensil that we trust.

This 8" chinois is awesome! I've looked for one like this for a while and this one is perfect. Very sturdy and easy to clean, it won't let anything coarse get through and you're left with a perfectly smooth product.

Exactly what we needed. This chinois is amazing from simply straining small products such as rice, clarifying a variety stocks, or making sure sauces are silky smooth for service.

The strainer is fantastic at straining and refining our gravies and stocks. It is a very fine mesh and separates the liquids from solids very well.

Overall this is an effective product and works as designed. The weld on the handle was weak so it eventually broke off. We still use the strainer though and it works well.

Exactly what I needed to strain tea leaves out. The only bad thing is the cone part is a little long so it dips into the liquid if it is anything more than 10 qts in a cambro. Fits my 24 qt cambro perfectly.

The 8" Reinforced Bouillon / Chinois Strainer is a solidly made product and seems ideal for a professional kitchen. It may be a bit of over kill for a home kitchen but it certainly up for any task you want to throw at it, i.e. soup straining, jams, etc.

My wife wanted one of these to strain her pot de creme mixture and she couldn't be happier with the results. It does fit in our residential dishwasher with some careful rearranging, which is good because I'm not sure if we could thoroughly clean it without the dishwasher.
