Amazon.com Review:
Consisting of a plastic container and a stainless-steel,fine-mesh strainer, this simple unit converts 3 cups of yogurt into 1cup of thick, creamy yogurt cheese in about 24 hours of refrigeration.(Thickening continues for 24 hours, though a thinner yogurt cheeseresults in as little as 2 hours.) The yogurt cheese then becomes ahealthful, calcium-rich, low-fat alternative to cream cheese,mayonnaise, sour cream, and even whipping cream. It can be used as aspread, in salad dressings, to top baked potatoes, mixed with fruit,and to make cheesecake. The unit works by allowing the whey (liquid) inyogurt to drain away, leaving the curds behind. The container isdishwasher-safe and seals to prevent odor transfer while it's in therefrigerator. Simple instructions and recipes for using yogurt cheeseare included. --Fred Brack

- Perfect
I bought one of these on Amazon the other day. It works exactly as described. I used ordinary fat-free yogurt to create strained yogurt (or yogurt cheese) in 2 hrs. I only wish they made a bigger model to make more at one time. But this thing is great. Cleans easily, too.

PS--I tried this again, using the cheapest fat-free yogurt I could find. Turned it into thick, creamy fat-free yogurt that wasn't too tart, and tastes as good (or better) than expensive yogurt (fat-free or not!).

The Cuisipro Donvier Yogurt Cheese Maker does exactly what it's designed to do.I have used this product to make good yogurt/cheese for the past two years, and it is simple to use and easy to clean with no parts to break down.I purchased this second one on Amazon as a gift for a good friend.She loves it.

- Works Well, Could Be a Bit Better
I love the yogurt after it has been strained through this, but it is the wrong size.I bought this in conjunction with the Salton 1 quart yogurt maker.After the yogurt has cooled, I take a half of a cup out for my next culture and pour the rest into the yogurt cheese maker.The problem is that it doesn't all fit.There is about a half of a cup that doesn't fit.If it were just a little bigger it would be perfect.I'm not sure what the purpose of the wave at the bottom is, but if it were straightened ...

Works great and strains fairly fast (I stain off about 1 cup of whey in an hour or less) sitting on my counter.
Some people noted that their homemade yogurt fell thru the larger mesh of the Donvier.I did not have this problem.
I find that if I hold my storage container on the top of the strainer and turn everything over 180 degrees, like an upside-down cake, the yogurt will just "plop" cleanly into the container, with very little loss of product stuck to the mesh.

- Don't buy it
Sorry, I bought this from a cooking store and was very disappointed.I should have listened to some of the other reviews.
1) It absolutely does not work with homemade yogurt.The yogurt just pours through the screen.
2) The unit is not big enough (I make a quart of yogurt at a time).It probably holds about 3 cups.
3) The container that the screen sits into is not deep enough - at all.The yogurt that you are trying to drain, winds up sitting in the liquid (whey) collected at the ... Read More
