Anyone else get one with 18/8 stamped on the base? The description says 18/10 but I received 18/8.

Yes, mine is 18/8 also. For a technical description of the difference, see this site: http://www.finishing.com/292/94.shtml My take-away is that the 18/8 is more 'ductile' than the 18/10, meaning that it will bend more without cracking or breaking. The 18/10 is harder and will crack sooner under repeated flexing.

I received two colanders marked 18/8. I have read, however, there is really no difference in the two- 18/8 v 18/10.

I also received one marked 18/8, but I have no idea what these numbers mean. I am nonetheless very happy with the construction and performance of this colander.

I didn't have a problem with my order, if you feel your order wasn't the correct length then you may want to measure it. Again I got what I ordered and in a timely manner. Hope this helps.

That's a great question. The one I received was 24.81 oz and I bought it for $60.68. Looks exactly the same. Purchased mine from Dependable Resource. The link you sent shows it for $45 which is a huge price difference. I am actually going to return it and reorder for the adjustment. Not sure if I just missed the sale??

I ordered 440mm, but receiced 420mm. They were marked 440, however they measured 420. The size turned out ok and I did not return them. If you really want 440mm be sure they get measured prior to shipping as the packaging designation etc

Just realize, the picture they show is actually NOT a #26 at all. I ordered one from another supplier who used this same exact ad, word for word, same pictures, same everything and I got an 808 #3 clone, but I only paid $12 so hopefully the ad just has the wrong pictures cuz a real #26 DOES go for $100 and usually more. Be carefull.

I do not believe it is. I believe it is 18/0 instead. This does work well for the price though.

I I would just like to say that these are still being advertised as 18 / 10. Even though I pointed that out to Amazon when I returned mine

Yes, the one I received was the 8000 as shown in the description. Very happy with it.

Even so it is not stamped, it is most likely an 18/10 stainless steel but likewise if it would be an 18/8 steel, the difference would be of no importance. Further to your information, the 18 stands for the Nickel contend while the 10 or 8 would be for the Chromium contend. In any case it is a top quality product.

I believe it was 18/10 because it is a quality pot. 18/0 does not keep its shine as well as you can tell with cheap 18/0 flatware. I always look for 18/10 or better to buy.

they sent me a 27.2 when I ordered a 26.8... they had told me it was indeed a 26.8 when I asked them BEFORE I purchased... they refunded my money... ask them before you buy it! I wanted one for my old diamondback ascent mtb.... i'll just keep riding the nice aluminum one I found elsewhere for now, besides, the weight is almost the same within a few grams....

Mine is stamped CST 863, so I do not know what the differences are between the two.

Mine isnt perfectly uniform but measured 8.5 ID and 9.5 OD. The chiller is very high quality compared to most I have seen. Would definitely recommend.

I cannot tell if it is 18/10, but it is stainless steel and it is a fairly thick rigid. It is a very solid unit and it works very well. We really like it. I hope this helps.

mine does its a 75711 and ist 8.5 inches,yours says its 8.7 inches,so I would say yes!

I didn't have them taken to a lab for analysis or anything, but yes, "18/10" is stamped on the back. They are beautiful with a nice weight to them. The Non Stop set has a beautiful brushed finish, which I like much better than the super shiny finish some of their other sets have, so maybe it doesn't photograph as though it's stainless steel.

Mine is 24.5. I believe it was so stated on Amazon when I got mine, could be a misprint. It is a very nice product and I can't see 1.4 inch variation effecting functionality or fit since hanging pots etc are going to exceed the overall width.
