The overall quality is very good. The enamel finish is nice. The color is close to red-orange. The metal rim on the top is a little bit loose, but it's not really an issue; I don't think it'll come off. The handles are riveted, so I find them to be very sturdy. It could use some more holes on the edge of the bowl base for better drainage, but tilting it usually takes care of whatever water is remaining.
Dimensions (7 Quart): The top diameter is 13" and the handles extend another 1.5" each. The bottom pedestal is 8.25" in diameter. Total height is 6.75" (5" for the top bowl and 1.75" for the pedestal).

I got this in pink and loved it. But... it does chip and rust a little, and now doesn't look so great after just a few years. I'm now looking to replace it with something else. Although I'm all for whimsy in the kitchen, I think I'd prefer longevity.Best Deals for Calypso Basics 7 Quart powder coated Colander
Got this for my father-in-law for Christmas and he loved it! Beautiful and bright red looks great in his newly remodeled kitchen. It's also a great size when you're throwing a dinner party or just have a lot of kids to feed.Honest reviews on Calypso Basics 7 Quart powder coated Colander
I've only had my colander for a 3 months, and the enamel is already chipping and the metal underneath is rusting. Now, we do use it for a lot of draining pasta, so we're pouring boiling water through it. We also put it in the dishwasher to wash. But why would I want to have to treat a utilitarian tool in my kitchen with kid gloves? I expected better performance. So, now I'm looking for a colander that is just plain stainless steel. It won't be as pretty, but I'm hoping it will work better.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Calypso Basics 7 Quart powder coated Colander
Beautiful yellow color. I was looking for a pretty butter yellow colander and I was very happy with this one.
