Attention CA Residents:

Customer questions about this product

How can I properly care for this aluminum item?

Hand washing is always the best option to ensure that your aluminum stays in best working order. However, if you decide to clean these in a dishwasher, we strongly recommend using metal-safe detergents and sanitizers to eliminate any flaking or tarnishing that could occur from some harsher cleaners.

What's the difference between a riveted and a welded handle?

A riveted handle is connected by small metal pieces (called rivets) that are crushed between the handle and the pan body to attach them together. This type of handle is more common on copper and aluminum cookware.

For a handle to be welded, the metal must first be melted and then adhered to the pan body. This creates a strong bond that leaves little to no space in between, so bacteria and other food crumbs can’t collect and cause sanitation issues. Both are long lasting solutions for fry and sauce pan handles because they are durable and can withstand heat.

Excellent sized item, own two primarily for pastas, rinsing lettuce greens, beans, draining tuna. Very, very large, so take that into consideration, high volume store necessity. Built like a tank too.

The perfect colander, for all your draining needs. I love the stability with the base and two handles. it won't spill over and loose half your food. It is dishwasher safe and won't rust.

This colander is big and the feet make it very sturdy for straining. it doesn't slip and slide around so it's much safer to use.

This Vollrath aluminum colander is great for large batch cooking. It is heavy duty and perfect for par cooking pasta and blanching vegetables. Easy to lift out of a sink to properly cool food. Easy to hang by the large handles for safe storage.
