The design of the strainer is great—the coils are perfectly spaced, it snugly into my mixing glass, and liquid doesn't run down the sides when pouring—but mine rusted after the second use, and I didn't do anything crazy with it (I think I made martinis and Manhattans, and it's not like I left them in the liquid or anything like that). Maybe I just got a defective unit, but there are so many other good brands that I returned it and am not going to bother trying again.See full review
