Are there holes in the bottom of the pasta strainer? In the picture it appears that there are no holes in the bottom 2 inches of the strainer.

Yes there are. On the sides the holes stop abut an inch or so from the bottom, but there are holes IN the bottom itself. Both strainers, the smaller basket you can see the holes in this picture, the bigger one is the same on the bottom. Easily one of the best cooking pots we have ever bought. Rates a 10+

There are holes in bottom but perhaps fewer than you might like in the bottom side.

Yes there are holes in the pasta strainer on the bottom and down the sides from the rim below the handles. There are holes at the top of the insert where the handles are attached. Hope this helps.

No holes, just raised sharp bumps on top. Bottom is, as you suggest, solid.

I sent the whole set back and they sent me a new one that arrived in perfect condition. It is a beautiful set!!! It is wrapped under my Christmas tree so I can't look to see if it has a strainer. Sorry.

Hi Sandra, I have this sink and it does not have faucet holes. Traditionally farm sinks do not have them because the faucets go directly into the countertop behind the sink itself. Hope this helps.

I don't believe there is a spaghetti strainer in this set. I gave the set to my daughter in law for Christmas last year, and I don't recall that the strainer was included. She loves the pots and pans though!!!! Great buy!

There are no holes/openings in the bottom. I had to drill holes in it for drainage.

The one I own does have holes on the bottom. Between some of the holes are vertical and horizontal spaces. On the one I own, there are diagonal spaces between some of the holes on the top. I did purchase mine from Amazon.com. It does not match exactly the picture on Amazon.com.

it's very nice. the strainer middle part also is removable. the holes aren't too big or too small. if there are very fine particles in the liquid the may pass through. i hope this helps.

It doesn't have a separate strainer area at the base of the spout. I have seen other teapots with this feature but this one does not have it. I love the infuser.

It does have a strainer. Not mesh, though. More like a mini colander with a handle to lift it out.

No rhere is no hole in the bottom. Just a bunch of small holes like you see on the sides. It is a really good item! Great quality!

I bought these to use a decorations on diaper cakes I made for my daughter-in-laws baby shower. I do not recall seeing any holes in the bottom though. I only recall seeing the "plate" to tell you if it's too hot.

No but it does have a strainer there at the front. It might get clogged with minerals or coffee ground residue. I just cleaned mine�

Mine has holes in it. I believe they are there to assist with the expansion. They are not noticeable at all though once assembled.

There aren't holes but there is an air gap between the top and bottom which produces an amusing sort of vacuuming action, like it's being sucked down through the bottom. Hope that helps.

No hole in the bottom. It is designed as a cache pot but the pot could be drilled easily enough.

I just went and checked mine - there are holes in the back of the top three compartments but none on the bottom two that I could see.
