Great for straining your oil after cooking.
We just purchased a very large pot to cook French fries, and onion rings from scratch. This is something that we used to do when I was growing up so it really means a lot to be able to do this with my family that I created. So many wonderful memories.When you cook in oil, like for French fries, you don’t want to throw out the oil each time. This is just too expensive. The best thing to do is to strain your oil through the metal strainer that is included with this pot. Then you put the lid on until the next time that you will be cooking foods in hot oil.The 4 quart size means that it is big enough so that we can use it for big gatherings, or small gatherings. It doesn’t matter, this pot with the strainer and lid that fit’s snuggly tight. And I can tell you from experience, this is a great strainer, and oil/grease holder. It’s super easy to use, and super sturdy. Just what you need if its main purpose is to hold oil/grease. And to top it off, it looks nice. Not sloppy and like this was an afterthought. The price is incredibly fair.

Excellent Quality
Excellent product quality and well worth the price. Large, heavy weight, stainless steel container with strainer and lid that will hold a gallon of recycled frying oil or other items or liquids. Very Versatile.

The filter system is super great.
Thought I'd use this to store bacon grease. Miscalculated actual size in my mind... too large. Still works great to store large quantities of soup or stew since it came with a great snap on lid. Easy to clean. I've also used the filters to filter other liquid items plus the fact the filters are easy to store in a drawer.

Great Product
I bought this so I could save my grease or oil after I make french fries or something like that and it works great The strainer is perfect I had seen on here where some people had said the strainer rusts but even if the strainer rusts I'll throw it away and just use a handheld strainer These things are great but I also use tallow for smaller frying jobs so I'm going to buy a second one and label it so I know which is my regular oil and which is the strain tallow cleans up easy The lid is nice and tight and secure and that means a lot to me and if it's perfect in my kitchen

A Great Money Saving Addition To Your Kitchen
This is a nice size bucket to store used oil. I love that it has a strainer. I drain oil in, and store it in the back of the refrigerator, so as to use it again. I has saved money. I was wasting used oil, now I can fry mild foods like fries, and appetizers, and just lay out the oil in the morning and reuse for supper. (Chicken Tenders) It can be reused several times. However, if I fry fish, I keep that oil, and use it once more for fish or shrimp. I clean it with soapy water, with some. baking soda. I let it soak. It was a great buy, and easy on the wallet, in the long run.

Strains and Stores
This is a very nice grease strainer. The mesh strainer captures a lot of small solids from bacon grease and leaves the remaining grease pretty clear. There are smaller partials that continue to come through but they sink to the bottom leaving very usable grease on the top. It's a nice shiny container that's very easy to use. You just open the hinged lid, pour, allow straining and close the lid. I use it at least once a week and I am happy with the results.
