Forget straining, bulk to small container too. Inherently stable even in a long neck liquid bottle. For med. Size chunks into smaller than widemouth I used my canning funnel instead of orange piece. Genius.
Advantages: Stability. Will show pictures if you email me.
I save $$ with bulk buying but the transfer dry and liquid was so messy. This no residue on counters. The vents. Science 101. Air out before product in.
Med size berry strainer, dry sieve etc.
Disadvantages: None.

This thing is the best. Excellent for straining fry grease as everyone has stated. My favorite use for strainer/funnel is making cold brew coffee, and this is better than any other system out there. Take 6-8 tablespoons of ground coffee and fill a quart wide mouth jar with good filtered water. Soak in fridge for 24 to 48 hours stirring 1 or 2 times or just shake it up. Then screw the strainer on another wide mouth jar and poor the coffee to strain, remove filter put lid on and put back in fridge for up to 2 weeks. This makes very strong but non acidic coffee. You can add to ice and blend for the best ice coffee ever because it wont taste like watered down brewed coffee. If you like hot coffee then heat up a half to three quarters cup of water as well as cream and/or sugar and then add cold brew to it. Mmm with this funnel/strainer don't know if I will be brewing coffee ever again.
Advantages: Cold Brew Coffee, Strain Grease, Canning, Soups.
Disadvantages: None

Best strainer ever! I used this the first time today for tea but am looking forward to using it to strain my expensive peanut oil! Excellent product! (Obviously always let your oil or other hot items cool a bit before straining as all pieces are plastic!)
Advantages: Easy to use and clean!

I've just started using the filter and love it. First thing I did was chicken bone broth and tonight, fried chicken. Sure beats the coffee filter lined sieve!

A GEM in the Kitchen .. This food scoop is an essencial tool for any kitchen. Yes, for fruits and vegetable; however, it is great for the pastry chef as well I love this tool to scoop up the leftover flour from the counter (it being a flat level counter of course) after making pies, hot biscuits, cookies, etc... I would highly recommend this for everyone who loves to chop veggies, fruits and after baking clean ups! 5 star for sure!!
Disadvantages: none for the food scoop itself .. only thing I can say is that I've had mine for over 8 yrs and people seeing mine can't find it any in store!

Smaller and better than a colander. This is a fantastic product! I've already purchased two and plan to get more as gifts. Why didn't someone think of this sooner?
Advantages: Easier to store and clean. Much less awkward than the alternatives.

Beautiful and handy to use. Mostly non-drip. But beware! Don't fill it too full. When it got too heavy I picked it up by the neck and it shattered!
Advantages: But I'm going to order another one anyway.
Disadvantages: See above.

I've been searching for the perfect oil dispenser for years. My search ended when I received this as a gift a few years ago. The cruet is so beautiful on my counter and it works perfectly. It dispenses oil at the perfect rate with no mess. This is my go-to gift for friends and family! The best part of my experience is that when the spout broke due to my husband hitting it against the cabinet, I reached out to chef's planet customer service and they sent me a replacement the same week, no questions asked, free of charge. I would give this cruet and Chef's Planet more stars if I could!
Advantages: Beautiful, Easy to use, No oily mess
Disadvantages: None
