Not a mesh chinois at all. It's a China cap; a solid metal cone with holes stamped into it.

It's well made, solid, and beautiful. Good piece of equipment.

But don't be fooled by the picture I think it's the low resolution of the photo that makes it look like this has a mesh screen, like a chinois.

But it doesn't.

Both the stand and the wooden "pusher" are great. The holes are too large for what I was originally intending to use the chinois for, which was making seedless raspberry jam, but I will still use it for other recipes. I probably would not have bought it if I could have seen a good picture of the holes.

This would have worked perfectly if the strainer holes were a little smaller. I used mine to make tomato juice and there was a little too much pulp caused by the holes being just a tad too big.

Honest reviews on Fox Run 3-Piece Stainless-Steel Chinois Set

So, this is actually a china cap, not a chinois. Although the picture shown is a mesh seive, ie chinois, the product shipped is a perforated steel, collander type set up which is actually a china cap. Great for straining soup but not for custards, fruit purees etc.

Had to return it.

I you are envisioning the huge light weight aluminum "china cap/chinois" that grandma had...this is not it LOL! This one is 7 inches tall, 7 inches around. It works very well and fits into a large cooking pot; no need to strain foods in another container and then transfer to a pot. I love the stand rim design...slotted so the handle of the chinois does not slip around while you are working! This is very sturdy stainless steel construction and a bit heavier than grandma's old aluminum set; it is designed to last!
