Review: Great tool - This strainer does exactly what I want it to do. It can easily scoop out all items from a wok full of hot oil, and the short handle is easy to use and manipulate. It's also very handy for setting over a wok and pouring another wok or pot full of oil and ingredients over it to strain out the oil. Many restaurants use this technique to quickly fry items then toss them back into the wok to finish the dish. This is very sturdy and well made, should last me for years and years.
Review: Great for anything you can think of when cooking stir fries. - Highly recommend for anyone stir frying rice dishes. I use it after a lot when frying velveted chicken and emptying the chicken on this strainer while it sits on a metal pot to collect the oil. Add my other ingredients, fry for a bit and add my chicken back into it to finish the dish.

The Winco Stainless Steel Skimmer is a solid, no-nonsense tool that’s become a staple in my kitchen. It’s sturdy and well-balanced, with a wide mesh that makes it perfect for lifting dumplings, fried foods, or veggies out of hot oil or boiling water. The stainless steel construction feels durable and easy to clean—no rusting or bending, even with frequent use. I love how the long handle keeps my hands safely away from the heat, and the skimmer’s design allows liquids and oils to drain quickly and efficiently. It’s lightweight but tough, and it handles both delicate and heavy foods with ease. If you’re looking for a reliable skimmer that gets the job done right, this one’s a winner.
