More Flimsy then I expected. Very fine mesh though. Works great for skimming the top of soup and potatoes to get the froth off of them.

This skimmer is so helpful. Admittedly I use it more like a spider strainer to dive for food particles left behind in my stocks or ferments because it works so well for that! I use the strainer to get the food that will splash back on me when i pour the final strain through the chinois. This is an excellent fine mesh strainer that gets a lot of use in my kitchen. My only gripe is that it is a challenge to store. It doesn't fit well in drawers because of the same curve that makes it so handy for skimming.

I wouldn't make chicken soup without a skimmer like this! Much easier to use than typical strainers that are made to rest on the side of a pot; this goes all the way to the edge. Cleans easily and thoroughly in the dishwasher.

I use this all the time for dusting cocoa powder or powdered sugar and straining lemon juice. Works great and hasn't rusted after a few years.

The skimmer part is very fine and made of good quality steel. I use this for all my stocks even though the straighter size is a bit too fine for it.

Works great, needed something small for dusting. This has washed up well and is nice and small to store. seems like a heavier mesh so it doesn't bend to weird shapes.

This "spider web" is an essential for any kitchen. We use it mainly to scoop green beans from stock pots or kettles into hotel pans.

I make a lot of ramen broth, and this strainer is perfect for skimming soups and stocks. It's small enough to easily maneuver around the surface of a big stock pot. For this price, it's definitely worth it.

I needed a fine mesh strainer for straining milk, and small-batch prepared butter. I like this product because it is metal and washes well in the dishwasher, is sturdy, and strains the fine particles to suit my needs.

I got these to use for my boba pearls and they are perfect! The large scoop allows you to get a lot out at once. I like to transport some to another container while working so I’m not working all day out of the same product. These are great.

Wish we got one of these sooner. We’ve been making lots of dishes in the instant pot and it’s great to be able to skim oil, seeds, fat off the top of broth. Excellent tool

I use this at home whenever I’m frying. It’s perfect to help me scoop donuts out of the pot. Also works for noodles or anything else that needs to be drained.

Nice extra fine skimmer, mesh feels sturdy and is sandwiched between a stainless steel rim so that there is no mesh edge exposed to fray or poke your fingers. Handle could be better but fine for light duty. Great purchase!

Nice extra fine skimmer. I juice a lot and don’t like all the little pieces of pulp. This is perfect to strain the liquid. Top quality, love it!

I was curious of the quality of these but was pleasantly surprised. You can use it for many purposes. I recommend getting multiple sizes. I was very satisfied.

The mesh is perfect for my needs but the handle is kind of thin feeling. I feel like it will bend easily if I'm not careful.
This is a good enough strainer, the size is not large, so you need to think before you buy, why you need it. I like that it is more durable than those that I ordered earlier. generally recommend!

This is my preferred tool to skim off all the floaters in the deep fryer. It has other uses, but it always ends up next to my deep fryer.

This works pretty well to remove bits and pieces from used cooking oil. I find it much easier to use than having to buy a separate cooking oil filter.

Great quality skimmer. I purchased 2 and I don't see why they won't last a long time, I recommend these to anyone looking for exactly this, a good skimmer at a great price.
