## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work for a left handed person? I.e. Pan in left hand and strainer in right hand**
A: Yes. The strainer is the same on both sides. The belly of the whale acts as the lip, it sticks out on both sides. You could hold it either direction and it would work. It's also nice because you can hold the other side (the face) and the water won't reach your hand. I usually hold both sides, along with the pot's handles, when I strain pasta.

**Q: Is this BPA-free?**
A: YES

**Q: I got this as a gift without packaging.  is it dishwasher safe?**
A: Yes top or middle shelf is best just to be safe. Had mine about 6 months and run it through dishwasher once or twice a month and no noticeable wear or changes. Seems very sturdy.

**Q: How big of a pot can this cover?**
A: Fits by 4 quart pot perfect, 8.25" diameter.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Strainer
*by  on Reviewed in the United States December 1, 2025*

Exactly what I needed. This works perfectly for straining pasta, etc. And it’s very cute too. :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Adorable, sturdy, and convenient, just be careful how you tilt the tail!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States January 18, 2022*

I bought this to replace a free strainer of a similar style that was made of flimsy plastic and developing a crack down the middle. I wanted something similar because I have very little counter and sink space and no dishwasher, so a crescent pasta strainer is a lot more convenient than having to whip out the colander every time I want pasta (which is a lot of times). Was not disappointed with this guy! He's very sturdy and has done a great job draining my pasta every time I've used him. I especially love how clever this design is, since whales actually eat this way - by taking a big mouthful of ocean, and then straining the water out so they just get the tasty bits! (They technically do it through the baleen plates they have in place of teeth, rather than the underside of their jaw like this strainer does, but it would be really hard to design a pasta strainer based on that LOL)One word of caution - I'm not docking a star for this, but only because it's more of a user error than a design flaw. Design-wise, it's great that there's lips on both sides, so that the strainer can be used easily by lefties and righties alike! However, be careful that you don't tilt the tail end down towards yourself, because the lip will catch the hot water and funnel it down to your hand. I haven't gotten any significant burns from this, but it does hurt and is very annoying.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Useful!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States July 6, 2024*

I bought one of these on the Wish app years ago and have used it ever since. My kids grew up and my daughter is furnishing her apartment. We looked all over for one and finally found one on Amazon. I probably paid 3 times as much as I did before but it’s worth it. It’s compact, works wonderfully and cute!
