I bought it specifically to use with amaranth, and it did not disappoint! The two pictures show the amaranth while I'm rinsing it and afterwards. No grains were lost while I was rinsing it. The edge of the strainer is sealed so there is no way for the seeds to get lodged in the strainer when you're emptying it. I just used a spatula to get the seeds out of the strainer, and the few that were left I actually use my fingers to try and get each one because they're tiny. I think it would easily hold two cups of other grains, in this picture there is one cup of amaranth. It floats easily so I didn't want it to overflow when I added the water. the handle seems nice and sturdy it had no trouble holding the amaranth or the Millet that I rinsed. If you have a regular sink you would probably be able to suspend the basket on one side of the sink, mine is an oversized sink, it fit but could easily have slid off the edge so I just held it. The mesh itself seems sturdy enough and does not Flex if I put a little pressure on it, that being said I feel you could crush it if you threw something heavy on top of it so just be careful. After cleaning it, the water seems to stay in the mesh, but if you stand it on end or hang it, it drips out just fine. This strainer measures 8" across the top and is approximately 2 and 3/4 inch deep . Thank you for a great product! Review: Finally a well made strainer like the old days... - I was searching and searching for a strainer that I could use to #1 sift flour (it's a pain taking out my flour sifter from a higher cabinet) and #2 that is easy to use and sturdy. I used this to sift whole wheat pastry flour. It sifted it so well it left the whole wheat particles behind. Since that's why I used whole wheat flour to begin with I just dumped them back into the flour. The handle is very sturdy and the mesh seems to be well made. I love that it doesn't have a million seams on the edge that everything gets caught in...But, on the other hand, because the mesh is so fine it does take a little extra time to clean it. I think it's worth the trade off since I now have strainer that I will have for quite a while. It's he perfect size for multi use....Fits my needs perfectly. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0728CHP47 | | Brand | Elisabeth Nielsen | | Brand Name | Elisabeth Nielsen | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 91 Reviews | | Is Dishwasher Safe | Yes | | Is the item dishwasher safe? | Yes | | Manufacturer Part Number | 20178-MSS | | Material | Stainless Steel | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Number | 20178-MSS | | Style | Mesh Strainer | | Style Name | Mesh Strainer | ## Product Details - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** Elisabeth Nielsen - **Style:** Mesh Strainer - **Is Dishwasher Safe:** Yes ## Images ![Elisabeth Nielsen 8 Inch Fine Mesh Strainer, Stainless Steel; Use as Pasta Sieve, Flour Sifter, for Amaranthe, Quinoa Collander, Matcha Sifter, Wide Gentle Handle, Easy on the Hand - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41iazBW3PjL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for amaranth and other small grains! *by G***Y on May 22, 2020* This is a great little strainer.

The problem is that rice, quinoa, whatever, gets caught in the rim which isn't sealed to the mesh. The handle is comfortable and the mesh is tight enough for the tiniest grain, but every single time I get so frustrated trying to pour all my quinoa into a pot of boiling water. I think I have it all but then next time I use there's invariably some hidden that come rolling out. I measure the stuff accurately. I don't want 1/4 of it getting stuck or bouncing all over the stove when I bang on it trying to get everything out. I'm so afraid to buy another and have this same problem, so I've been sticking with this even though my nerves get tested every single frustrating time. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/45587664-elisabeth-nielsen-8-inch-fine-mesh-strainer-stainless-steel-use](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/45587664-elisabeth-nielsen-8-inch-fine-mesh-strainer-stainless-steel-use) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-29*
