Made entirely of 18/10 stainless steel to resist rust
Editorial Review:
This tiny strainer holds back even the smallest particles of sediment. The mesh is exceedingly fine and tightly woven, resembling a sheer metallic cloth???it looks delicate, but it's actually quite strong. The double-rod stainless steel handle stays cool to the touch even when the bowl is resting in hot liquid; a squared loop of the same stainless steel keeps the bowl in place. Use this strainer for tea and other infusions, for clarifying a small amount of liquid, or for that occasional glass of wine into which a little cork has fallen.
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 made in Germany, are dishwasher-safe, and carry a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Nice, but the price!:
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... more info
Shoddy Quality:
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
