I should have bought this a long time ago. Oh my, is this ever quick and easy. I hated sifting flour before with my lousy squeeze handle one. The last time I used it I was so mad I threw it in the garbage. I ordered this one and now I don't avoid sifting flour and it sifts 3 cups of flour fast. I'm still a messy cook but this keeps a lot less flour off the counter.

I have been looking for this sifter and was glad to find it. It is a nice kitchen gadget for anybody that bakes. I bake chiffon cakes and it is a must to sift flour to make the cake light and airy and to have a fine texture. Simple to use and store after each use.

Review 3 for Progressive 3-Cup Measuring Flour Sifter
Considering the price I was actually surprised by how well made this sifter is. It works very well and helps me avoid my usual problem of compacting the flour in bread recipes. I'm very satisfied.

Review 4 for Progressive 3-Cup Measuring Flour Sifter
We bought this unit to replace the hand sifter that you squeeze. We fell in love with the way it sifted the flour. Plus with the built in measurement it works great. You can even choose to make it a finer powder if needed. But overall we are very happy with it.

Review 5 for Progressive 3-Cup Measuring Flour Sifter
THIS IS SUCH A PRACTICAL DESIGN! AS YOU SIFT THE FLOUR, IT GOES INTO THE MEASURING CUP. HOW INENGENIOUS! IT DOES A GOOD JOB SIFTING AND IT'S SO CONVENIENT.

I like the idea behind this sifter, but. My first one arrived with a crack and misaligned so the handle wouldn't turn. Chefs promptly sent a replacement. It too is slightly misaligned so turning the crank isn't as easy as it should be.
The design, put flour in top, crank, falls into bottom, is a good idea, but the screw-together top and bottom are awkward for me. The size of the unit is a bit too large for my hands (and I have long fingers) to hold easily, and awkward to unscrew with my arthritis. A handle on the bottom would help, and if the top simply slid into the bottom (the way you join a tool onto the end of the vacuum hose) it would be much easier to use.
As well, the size of the bottom is a bit small if you want to scoop the flour out and measure precisely. Also awkward if you need to sift the flour, then re-sift with additional ingredients. You'll need to pour out the sifted flour into a bowl, reassemble the two piecces, then measure and do the second sifting. Hmmm.
I will keep this and use it sometimes, but I will need to buy a different sifter for many of my sifting needs.

Review 7 for Progressive 3-Cup Measuring Flour Sifter
Just received this sifter and have used it numerous times already. It works great, is very good quality and very easy to use even with dexterity problems. Keeps your work areas cleaner and is great for flouring your pastry boards. Love this sifter.

I love that it saves my hand from cramping like the squeeze handle did.

Mine didn't work

I think mine may be defective. It sifts flour fine when I shake it. However when I turn the arm, nothing happens. I think mine may be misaligned, as on one turn it meets resistance as the arm runs into the screen, and on the other turn it is high off the screen. Not sure if it is worth returning it. I had been using a sieve with an arm and it works fine as long as I tap it on my hand, and it is much easier to clean than this sifter.

Put this to work making holiday cookies and other baking over Christmas and was impressed with how tidy the counter stays and how handy the measuring cup function is. It's a bit cumbersome to store, but what else are those upper cabinets for that are hard to reach every day? I did use the sprinkle function, but I think a small wire strainer works just as well for that. It cleans up well in the dishwasher upper rack and is ready to use again.

This sifter is wonderful when you need small amounts of ingredients sifted. It is wonderful to unscrew the measure cup and not need to dirty up extra containers. I use this on a weekly basis and it works great!!!
