Kitchen Gizmo Silicone Clip-On Colander for Pots

I got rid of all my other strainers. Easy to use, easy to clean, easy to store.

Works as advertised. Nice.

I have a pot with a lip in it. Takes strong grip to get Gizmo over that lip but fits. May be difficult if arthritis in that situation.
Love this ! Easy to use, clean. Drains super.
Have gotten this as gifts. People I gave this to in turn got as gifts for their friends.

This is VERY much worth buying!! I highly recommend to get this!! I got one since we drain meat & noodles & all. This saves SO much time & SO easy to use. Plus love that is does actually attach to any pan or skillet! It is amazing and it works great!! Love also that doesn’t break the bank and very universal!

I bought the Snap N Strain Pot and Pasta Strainer as an alternative to my traditional silicone colander. My previous colander broke, and I am in the process of moving, so I was looking for something on the inexpensive and smaller side that would prove convenient and not bulky when it came time to move to my new place. I intend on buying a more traditional colander, but I thought this would be a great substitute in the meantime.
As someone who spends a lot of time in the kitchen, I was really excited to find an easier way to strain my food, finding something that allows me to keep the food still in the pot, rather than having to transfer the food back and forth between the pot and colander.
In simple terms, does it strain the food, yes. Were there some challenges, yes.
When I first used the strainer, I thought the concept itself was very easy to understand, but I found when attaching the strainer to the pot, you have to really push down on the strainer for it to clip onto the pot and become secured. While I like that the strainer does become rather secure once clipped on properly, it is the struggle to get it clipped on that I find worrisome. When dealing with hot food/liquids, the last thing I want to do is feel like I am struggling with the pot/strainer.
I also found that, depending on the size of your food, the food can slip out on the top. I’ve noticed this more so is the case with larger food items or when you have more food in the pot, for example, a family-size box of tortellini. This can prove wasteful if you’re not careful. I recommend a bowl underneath or something to try to catch the food. You also need to tilt the pot quite a bit to get all the water out. I have found that some water can get trapped and you can’t really shake out the water like with a traditional colander.
Despite the issues I found, I think this is a great tool when you’re in a bind. I don’t think it replaces all the benefits I have found with a traditional colander, but it does what I need it to do for now. Once I move into my new place and purchase my preferred colander, can I say that this will be moving from its spot in the cupboard? No, I don’t think so.

This item works like a dream; so easy to adjust to my varying saucepan sizes and pour hot liquid out. I really do not know why I have been using a colander for so long! It makes straining vegetables an absolute breeze : )

I have the green version. It feels so well-made and takes up a fraction of space compared to the colander I no longer require! The item has a large enough ‘lip’ to ‘catch’ everything in the pan.

This is a great gadget, no more food falling out the pots into the sink. Really easy to use for everyone as kids are using it to, quick to use for anything you need from spaghetti to even noodles.

Muito prático! Adapta facilmente em todos os tamanhos de panela.
