Description

Rinse your fruit and vegetables in one soft basket, then fold it flat into a drawer. The silicone walls collapse to a thin profile, and the perforated base drains water while produce stays put. Built for small kitchens where every cabinet inch counts.

Collapses flat to save cabinet space and rinses produce in seconds

Solves
  • bulky colanders taking up cabinet space
  • messy rinsing of fruit and vegetables
  • awkward draining in the sink

Rinse produce in seconds, then fold it flat.

Tired of a bulky colander crowding your cabinet and messy sink rinses? This soft silicone basket drains produce cleanly and collapses to a thin profile.

A colander that packs away flat

Walls that collapse flat

The silicone walls press down to a thin profile that slides into a drawer or a tight cabinet gap. A rigid colander needs its full height on the shelf. This one needs a fraction of that, so the cabinet stays open for the rest of your kitchen.

Drains while produce stays put

Run the tap and the water falls straight through the perforated base. The walls keep peppers, apples and greens in the basket, so the sink stays clear of loose produce. Shake it once and it is ready to use.

Side handles for easy lifting

Two side handles with hanging holes give you a grip on each side. Lift the basket over the sink with one hand, or hang it on a hook to drip dry. Soft-touch silicone stays comfortable when wet.

Rinse, drain, fold, and done

  1. 1
    Load and rinse

    Add fruit or vegetables to the basket and rinse them under the tap. Work in small batches so the walls stay firm.

  2. 2
    Lift and drain

    Grip both side handles and lift the basket over the sink. Water runs out through the perforated base while the produce stays inside.

  3. 3
    Shake, then fold flat

    Shake out the last drops, let it air dry briefly, then press the walls down. The basket folds flat and slides into a drawer.

A nested set for every prep job

Questions and answers

Is the silicone sturdy enough for potatoes or melons?
w
Wanelo · seller

Rinsing heavy produce is exactly what the basket is for, since the base is perforated for fast drainage. Fill it in batches and lift with both side handles so the soft walls keep their shape.

Does the basket keep its shape when full of wet produce?
w
Wanelo · seller

The walls hold their shape at the sink. Let the basket settle for a moment before you lift it, and keep the load below the top of the walls so nothing spills over the edge.

How do I clean the mesh and seams?
w
Wanelo · seller

Rinse the mesh under the tap after each use and wipe the seams dry with a towel. Shake out trapped water before you fold it, so the seams do not stay damp in a closed cabinet.

Can it go in the dishwasher?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes, the silicone basket is dishwasher safe, so it goes in with the rest of your prep tools. Keep it clear of hot pots and pans, which can soften the walls over time.

Is it worth it compared with the colander I already own?
w
Wanelo · seller

A rigid colander costs you a shelf for life. This one costs you almost nothing to store, and the drawer space you get back is the real return. You also get a nested set, so one spot holds every size you need for prep.
