Review on HIC Harold Import Co Glass 32 Ounce Gravy Strainer: Efficient Kitchen Tool for Perfectly Smooth Gravy by Jesse Cruz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for what it is

Doesn't separate my sauce as well as plastic sauces with a leak proof valve at the bottom, but it's not plastic and can handle heat so it's better. People complain in these reviews that it's brittle, but that's because they never had any of the early Pyrex glassware, like the Silex blown glass coffee pots. All of these materials were just as thin and delicate only when pressed against harder things. I smashed so much Pyrex in my sink it doesn't do anything so I'm sure it will never hit the sink and I'm fine. Borosilicate glass is always more brittle but heat resistant so you can heat it over a fire and you'll be fine. It won't break if hot sauce hits it while it's cold, which is why you buy it. Their thicker pyrex after they switched to regular glass.

Pros
  • Quick change
Cons
  • Almost never
