Amazon.com Review

One of Rösle's superb kitchen utensils, this 3-1/4-inch fine-mesh strainer is ideal for filtering leaves out of tea and grounds out of coffee. It's 8-1/4 inches long overall and has a 1/3-cup capacity. Like all Rösle Open Kitchen components, tools, and utensils, the strainer--including mesh--is made of 18/10 stainless steel for rustproof beauty and long-lasting durability. The rim has a bright mirror finish while the wire handles, one long and the other opposite for support, have a brushed finish. The support handle is bent so it can rest securely on the edge of a cup or mug. A hanging loop on the long handle permits the strainer to be conveniently stored on a hook in Rösle's Open Kitchen system of basic rails and Gridwalls or hung on any hook or peg. All Rösle products are dishwasher-safe, and carry a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

This item although expressly and impliedly advertised that it is Made in Germany is actually made in China. The item is generally of a very poor quality. I would not buy it for the price advertised and I am trying to get my money back

This review is from: Rösle 95158 Tea Strainer, Fine Mesh (Kitchen)
The Rosle tea strainer is as advertised. A very fine mesh strainer and well made. All but the finest bits of some ground English Breakfast Tea were caught in the strainer. This particular tea blows right through an infuser basket. Regular tea leaves are no problem.

The Stainless steel is easy to maintain but industrial looking. Not particulary attractive as a table accessory. The price for this item is very steep for what you get. A table caddy with a drip tray might make it a better value.

A lot fo a little strainrr.

As with every Rosle product I have ever bought, this is top quality. It is made of stainless steel throughout, so it won't rust away like my previous strainer. The handle and lip are neatly and securely welded to the main part of the strainer. (The other reviewer who said it was poor quality appears to be motivated by a bias against Chinese-made products).

The design makes for secure placement on top of a tea cup, so you don't have to hold the strainer while you are pouring the tea. It looks elegant too, assuming you don't dislike modern design.

Even though it's a tea strainer, it's about the right size for use as a general purpose sieve. I'll be using it mostly to keep ice shards out of my martinis.

Rosle utensils ARE expensive. I justify the expense by knowing that I will most likely never have to buy the same utensil again.
