The cooking process consists of various processes, one of which is filtering. The strainer can be used on various solid materials such as flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and liquid materials such as oil. The strainer can separate coarse particles into finer particles. However, when using a strainer, the user must prepare other tools, comprising a container and spoon. This process is time-consuming and inefficient, and none of the recent designs accommodates this issue. To deal with these problems, this study aimed to solve them by designing a tool that can combine these various functions into a product. To reduce the time for preparing tools, the design intended to combine the functions of the tools needed in one product. Multifunctional strainers include the strainer, container, measurement glass, and spoon in one product. There is also a removable handle on the strainer that can make it easier for users to filter. The way to use this strainer is to open the strainer lid and insert the material to be filtered. The results of the strainer can be stored or measured directly using the product. If a spoon is required, the user only needs to take a spoon from the product's lid. By using the product, users do not need to perform many inefficient movements and minimize the distance between the tools that need to be reached.
