I no longer needed a large colander, so I ordered the 3 quart size. It is the perfect size if you are cooking for 2 to 3 people. The drainage is very good. It has a good weight to it, is sturdy without being heavy. I recommend hand washing the colander to maintain the beautiful color. I ordered the magenta and am so pleased. It is a vibrant, happy color. It looks exactly like the pictures posted by the seller. I keep it on the counter or table with baked goods or fruit. The 3 qt size holds up to 9 apples. This colander is pricey, but it is very well made. Review: A savior in the kitchen!!!! - I had a wire colander. It was a nightmare. It was impossible to clean, it would come out of the dishwasher dirtier than when it went in. Everytime I would take it out of the cabinet I would try and find a reason to throw it out, but this beast just kept chugging along. I was hoping that the wire would break or something so i could throw it out, but it never happened. One day I took it out of the dishwasher and just could not bear to see the colander ever again. I threw it out. That same day I ordered this Colander. Its big enough to use for just about everything! The foot on the bottom makes it super sturdy. I can pour whole pots of pasta and water and it never tips. It stands in the sink where I can wash fruits and vegetables it. The construction is strong enough to keep it from denting or warping. The blue color is fun and gives it a vintage appeal. This thing ended the tyranny of the wire strainer that lasted far longer than it should have. ## Features - USES | 1.5 Quart Size (48oz|1.4L) for foods like berries or serving for 2 people | Prep & Strain Hot or Cold Food | Alternative Uses Such as a Fruit Bowl or Gift Basket or Grown Herbs - SIZE | 9½"L (Includes Handles) x 7½" Bowl Diameter x 4½"H | Wide Base for Stability and Well Placed Holes for Quick Draining - CARE | Hand Wash / Do Not Use Abrasives - MATERIAL | Steel Colander, Stainless Steel Rims, Chrome Plated Handles, Powder Coated Enamel Finish |1 LB Product Weight - COLLECTION | Calypso Basic Colanders have 5 sizes to collect.

Now a year later the finish has flaked off with rust underneath. Tossed in the junk pile this morning. ## Frequently Bought Together - Calypso Basics by Reston Lloyd Powder Coated Enameled Colander, 1.5 Quart, Red - Salt and Pepper Shakers Set,4 oz Glass Bottom Salt Pepper Shaker with Stainless Steel Lid for Kitchen Cooking Table, RV, Camp,BBQ Refillable Design Christmas Kitchen Decor Gifts(Red) - Reston Lloyd Rest Plastic Counter Stove Top Utensil Holder for Spoons, Ladle, Tong, Space-Saving Hanging Hole on Handle, Black --- ## 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.it/products/12585436-1-5-quart-colander](https://www.desertcart.it/products/12585436-1-5-quart-colander) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
