question on Precision Pierced Stainless Steel Colander: can u show a picture taken directly from the top. i'd like to know if the bottom is flat or curved. flat bottomed doesn't drain well. there's always liquid accumulation. i wouldn't want it.

It actually has a center section that is slightly raised creating a tiny slope around the sides of the raised area. The entire bottom is perforated. I've had no problems with it draining.

The bottom is rounded, so in order to 'sit flat' the bottom of the kettle would need to be sanded flat a bit, too.

The hole that we drilled is very small. Only enough for the drain. The curve has not posed any problem. No leaking as far as I know.

The base of this colander is flat and is suspended between the 3x legs/feet slightly elevating it up from the surface. The base portion contains a bunch of well placed drain holes. I have not experienced any draining problems due to the flat base.

No, it does not have a flat bottom. The stainless steel circular portion is indented slightly underneath and also protrudes out slightly. Even though it does not fit inside the drain hole in our bathtub it works anyway. I have taken several baths with no water leakage. The rubber portion contours around the bottom of your tub when water hits it. We have a Vikrell surfaced tub.

Bottom inside of kettle has no weld line.Looks just like regular kettle.Bottom outside no weld showing as well.Not sure how it is fabricated.Very professional looking.

The bottom is not flat and this would be much too heavy full for a glass top even if the bottom was flat when it was full of water and jars.I am not sure there are flat bottom granite ware? I've never seen any anyway.Many people just buy a 23 quart Presto pressure canner and use it as a water bath too.You can do a single layer of 7 quart jars at a time in it and it works on glass top stoves.

I just put it over the drain in my bathroom sink. Every once in a while, it doesn't form a seal so now I press it down with my fingers until there's about an inch of water covering it. That may be because the sink is curved. I am very happy with it, because now I only need one sinkful of water; before, the sink's plunger/stopper was leaking badly enough that I had to refill the sink to wash my hair.

The bottom surface is flat. It is a metal plate that has been welded to the bottom of the kettle--also flat. I have an induction range and the kettle works fine with it. If the kettle should boil dry and overheat that plate may warp (happened to a friend). Otherwise the kettle is very serviceable. I use it daily.

I think the angle of water into the sink is just fine. We have a Kraus single bowl kitchen sink and it works great. The pull out appears to be heavy as it is harder to extend...perhaps the hose is a tighter fit or there is too much of it? I like how it keeps your last setting for spray or flow. Overall a nice faucet with a great look.

I don't know anything about the grades of the stainless. We first saw it in the store at Macy's and we thought it was beautiful. (maybe you can see it at Macy's). Then we found it on Amazon. They were both about the same price, but we live a distance from Macy's, so we ordered it from Amazon. It is quality flatware. It is pretty heavy, but not as heavy as this expensive flatware that my mom has: Oneida Michelangelo. My mom has had for probably 40 years (they still make it) but it is $50 a place setting. My husband thinks that our Mikasa Cocoa Blossom is prettier and nicer than the Oneida. It is not made in China. It was made in a different Asian country.(I can't remember which one. ) I don't know anything about the grades of the stainless.

this is flat and is great I have purchased a few other shapes but nothing is like this one. Great for a little amount in a bowl. If a slightly larger bowl gets about 1 inch of liquid, it would also be good. No for a full bowl of liquid. Then you need a different shape or a larger type,. This is like a bottom feeder.

This does not have a flat bottom. It is hollow. It rests on the outside circumference and the indentations do not touch the stove. I have used it on gas as well as electric ranges with good results.

Yes, it has a flat bottom and I am finding it as my "go to" pot! I like this pot best out of all the Anolon set I have.Enjoy

the front tang in the picture in not curved in like a typical pour spout. it is flat and the lid sits flush against that surface. works well for a slow braise

the entire bottom is not slanted toward the drain, only a half inch or so around the drain is rounded/slanted to allow drainage. With this large a sink, it would be better to have a slight slant, that's true. BTW, Franke sinks are made of junk stainless steel, probably from China. I will never buy another.

The sink looks great but takes a little more care to splash water to the edges of the bottom to ensure that everything gets washed down the drain. Example would be shavings emptied from an electric razor. I have a deep oval self-rimming Kohler sink at a second home that works much better as a sink... but doesn't provide the distinctive modern look of the rectangular undercount. It's a judgement call.
