Finally tuna may be enjoyed, without treating long shirt sleeves inhumanely
A perfect compliment to a safe-edge can opener (and, of course, a can of tuna). Reduces the risk of 'tuna shirt' from ~73% to ~2%. Works great on both 5 oz and 12oz cans of tuna. Surprising sturdy. If you really like to crush every last trace of moisture from the can contents, you may want to stick with 5 oz cans, as it seems somewhat possible to damage this strainer if you unleash 'roid rage with the outer ring attached. That being said, it feels sturdy enough to put a subjectively acceptable strain on a 12oz can.Perhaps a more dedicated reviewer will attempt strain a 12oz can with this thing using all of their might, and provide some hard data on its durability. I couldn't bring myself to break a brand new device that saves me from changing my shirt more than half of the times I strain a can of tuna.To the reviewer who does eventually break their strainer in the name of amazon review data: I accept your 'thumbs down' of my review with grace and humility.

Maybe three stars
This strainer works as advertised. My only quibble is that it isn't easy to get the oil off well enough to feel it is truly clean. Two possible solutions: harder plastic, bigger holes. I imagine those little holes grip the oil with quite a bit of surface tension.I would give it only three stars if I was certain that my suggestions would improve the device. I could possibly figure this out by ordering a bunch of tuna strainers and become an expert, but I'm not going to do that. I have to draw the line somewhere.Perhaps America's Test Kitchens will dig in on this issue. However, most people don't even know about side cutting can openers so the demand for strainers probably isn't big enough to warrant the show's time. Someone truly built a better mousetrap, but the world did not beat a path to their door.

Tired of the messy hassle of trying to drain your tuna and similarly sized cans? Look no further than this nifty strainer gadget to ease your draining turmoil! With the now commonplace side cut can openers you are left without a decent method of draining tuna cans and so forth--but with this strainer it's better and easier than ever! When we lost our first one we suffered along for a month or two hoping it would turn up--but then we decided that it wasn't something to be without and ordered another one (at about 1/3 less than the big box stores)! If we ever lose it again we'll be sure to reorder, but they seem to be made well enough that if you don't lose it you can pass it down to your grandchildren--since you won't want to let it go until you're gone :)

Useless, at least for cans found in Washington state
Maybe it works for cans of tuna, but all the cans of vegetables in my pantry are considerably smaller than the smallest diameter this tool offers. I quite frankly recommend finding a gravity-based strainer that provides handles on the side for mess-free usage.Now it's time for me to throw away this useless tool and purchase something that fits the cans sold around here.

OK if you don't mind tuna liquid oozing over your thumbs
I always used a plastic tuna strainer with handles (like this one), but needed a larger version that would work on 12-oz tuna and chicken cans. This strainer functions reasonably well to press out the water or oil from the can, but since it has no handles I have to endure the flow of liquid running over my thumbs as I push down. And yes, it's a simple matter to immediately wash my hands; I still think it's gross and just don't like it!

Won't use it.
Just pressing hard on the lid from the can works better or just as well. Just another gadget that takes up space in the whatnot drawer.

Dreamy
A lot of canned tuna gets eaten here and this handy little device makes life just plain nicer. I was woefully tired of splashing tuna water up onto me and endangering my hands with the sharp edges of the tuna can lid when used as a "strainer". This is so slick to use and clean. I've strictly used it for tuna cans so I can't comment on that outer rim. I paid about five bucks and as another reviewer said, yeah, that's a bit steep for a small piece of plastic - but it's not like I could make one of these - and in time, I think the little doohickey will earn its keep!UPDATE July 2014: Love it. Gets used frequently, hasn't broken or otherwise deteriorated.

Useful little device!
I used to strain my tuna cans by pressing the lid in, but a while ago I switched to a safety can opener and the lid no longer fits inside to do a good job of pressing out the water- I was getting tired of soggy tuna! It fits perfectly in the can and since it has holes all over, I don't risk tuna water jetting out the side like when I used to use the lid.Yeah, it's probably a little overpriced for a tiny piece of plastic, but I didn't have any luck finding one at any local stores. In the end, I think it was well worth it.
