Yes the mesh is fine enough to rinse rice. Just to make sure, I just put a handful of rice into the strainer and the mesh is definitely fine enough NOT to let the rice fall through it.

I never knew there was a difference in the mesh. I use a coarser ground french roast so I don't have an issue with any grounds getting through the filter. The replacement filter mesh featured here appears to be exactly the same as the one included with my original Bodum press purchase.

It is very fine mesh and would probably work well... I use it for all kinds of things from straining tea to cleaning berries etc... very pleased with it...

I would say not quite. It is a fine mesh but the chinois appears to be even finer. This one is great for skimming fat off broth, water flows through, very decent for the price.

It is very fine mesh, I use when I make soup and it strains everything out but the broth.

Yes it comes with a stainless steel mesh strainer which is removable and large enough to make a fairly strong pot of tea if you want to fill it up.

The nylon strainer does not have any markings at all and I do not have the packaging. I use it for straining kefir,

I don't know for sure I think its stainless steel. I can tell you I have had mine for close to a year and it hasn't rust or showed any signs of ware. It is a very well made strainer I would order another hope this helps.

I reviewed the 15-inch stainless steel mesh strainer. There were two sizes available when I ordered - 10 or 15 inch. My guess is that the 15-inch has sold out and they transferred the reviews to the 10-inch or they consolidated all the reviews because the product is virtually the same except for length.

just checked my basket... looks like very fine mesh not made out of any metal... very flexible, it's the best for coffee pot, no need for paper filter.

The mesh is not metal. It is super fine, but I don't know if it's a fabric like nylon or some kind of plastic. Check out my Sunny's Mom review on how I care for it. I love it---use it all the time and it works great.

Rebecca, this metal mesh should work for you. I have used it to mold strainer filters into delicate shapes and they held the shape after several washings.

I honestly don't know and how WOULD I know? The mesh is NYLON. I have never heard of BPA being used in nylon. As for the plastic handles, well, I guess you should ask someone who might know....like the seller.

That is a very good question thank you for asking. The answer is no, it is nylon.

Yes. There are different size strainers inserts. Just chose the size you need. Easy to use. I love mine.

Yes, the entire strainer is metal, and I would assume its all stainless steel. Nice item for the money, I would recommend it.
