Know before you buy
Enamelware is highly durable, but like any coated metal, it can chip if dropped or struck against a hard surface. To keep the finish looking its best, avoid using metal utensils that could scratch the surface.
Yes, the enamelware construction is heat-resistant and perfectly safe for draining boiling water from pasta or blanched vegetables.
Yes, the colander features a wide, integrated footed base designed specifically to keep the unit stable and upright, even when filled with heavy produce or pasta.
While enamelware is generally durable, we recommend hand washing with a soft sponge to preserve the vibrant French Blue finish and prevent potential micro-abrasions from dishwasher detergents.
A 3-quart capacity is ideal for everyday tasks, such as rinsing a standard bag of salad greens, a pint of berries, or draining a single box of pasta.
