The deciding specification is mesh density, published as 80/180 micrometer cotton, 100/200/300 mesh nylon, or unstated stainless.

The WMKGG Ultra Fine Mesh Strainer Bags are the only pick with a published cotton mesh measured at 80/180 micrometers and a 5.6 inch frame. The PRINKROOMY bags publish three nylon mesh densities, at 100, 200 and 300 mesh. The Homestia publishes 3.3 inches of width and 1.8 inches of height, the lowest figures in both of those fields here. The HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers both publish a recommended vessel inside diameter of 4.0 to 5.4 inches for Nama J2 juicers.
“Mesh density decides the pour, not the handle.”

Priorities, not a computed score. The inputs are published specifications, so we rank by what matters most and say how much.
The five picks split into two groups by published mesh density. The WMKGG bags publish 80/180 micrometer cotton mesh. The PRINKROOMY bags publish 100, 200 and 300 mesh nylon options. The Homestia, HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers publish no mesh figure at all, so their filtration rating cannot be compared on paper. If mesh density is your deciding figure, only two picks give you a number to work with.
Frame and vessel fit separate the group a second way. The WMKGG frame is 5.6 inches across. The Homestia publishes 3.3 inches of width and 1.8 inches of height. The HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers publish a recommended vessel inside diameter of 4.0 to 5.4 inches. Weight is published by three of the five, at 0.09 pounds for the Homestia, 0.25 for the WMKGG set and 0.06 for the PRINKROOMY bags, a figure its own listing flags as too light for the size beside it.

The table does not tell you how any of these strainers performs. No one at Lush has used them. Mesh density is published for two picks, and the rest is stated as material, dimensions and cleaning method. A published micrometer figure tells you the opening size, not the flow rate. A published frame diameter tells you the fit, not the seal. Treat every row as a capability the maker states, not a result.
The WMKGG bags publish 80/180 micrometer cotton mesh, sewn with food grade cotton wire. The maker states that this mesh size helps liquid pass through the bag while holding back residue and pulp. The PRINKROOMY bags publish three nylon densities: 100 mesh, 200 mesh and 300 mesh. The maker states that 100 mesh suits pulpy juices, while 200 and 300 mesh suit nut milks and clarified brews.
Those are the only two picks with a published mesh figure. The Homestia, HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers are described as fine mesh but publish no micrometer or mesh count. That does not mean their mesh is coarser or finer. It means the manufacturer does not publish the figure, so no comparison can be made. If mesh density is the reason you are buying, the two bags are the only picks with a stated number.
A bag strainer is squeezed. The PRINKROOMY bags publish double stitched edges that the maker states withstand vigorous squeezing, plus an adjustable drawstring for a tight closure on different containers. The WMKGG bags publish a zipper design that holds the filter on a stainless ring, and a handle with a hanging hole. Both are described for nut milk, juice and similar tasks.
A basket strainer rests and pours. The HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers publish two handles that sit across cups, bowls and pitchers, so liquid strains without being held. The Homestia publishes a rod handle and a front rest loop for a glass or cocktail shaker. The choice is between pressing pulp through a bag and letting gravity pull liquid through a basket.
The WMKGG frame is 5.6 inches across, which is the figure its own bullet gives for the ring. The Homestia publishes 3.3 inches of width and 1.8 inches of height, the lowest figures in both of those fields here. The HiloFenar publishes 4.0 inches wide, 5.0 inches deep and 2.0 inches tall. The KANSHENDH-US publishes 4.92 inches wide, 6.5 inches deep and 1.92 inches tall. The PRINKROOMY bags give no size in their bullets, leaving fields of 9.8 by 9.8 by 13.78 inches.
The HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers both publish a recommended vessel inside diameter of 4.0 to 5.4 inches. That is the figure to check against your pitcher or cup. The WMKGG frame at 5.6 inches is wider than that range. The Homestia at 3.3 inches is narrower. Measure the opening before ordering, because a strainer that does not rest on the rim will not stay in place.
Three of the five publish a weight. The Homestia publishes 0.09 pounds and the WMKGG set 0.25. The PRINKROOMY bags publish 0.06 pounds, and that figure is flagged as too light for the 9.8 by 9.8 by 13.78 inch size in the same listing, so this page records it rather than ranking on it. The HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers publish no weight figure at all.
Storage is described differently across the group. The WMKGG handle has a hanging hole. The PRINKROOMY bags are described as drying quickly for repeated use. The Homestia is described as light enough to hang or store in a drawer. The HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers are described as compact enough not to occupy countertop or cabinet space. None of these are measured claims, they are the maker’s stated descriptions.
None of the three stainless picks publishes a mesh figure, so what they offer instead is a way to put the strainer down. HiloFenar states two extended handles that rest securely across measuring cups, bowls, pitchers and mugs, so liquid strains without the filter being held. KANSHENDH-US states 1.6 inch handles on both sides, given also as 4.0 cm, and the same hands free arrangement on the edge of a cup or a teapot.
Homestia takes the third route, publishing a rod handle with a front rest loop for extra support over a glass or a cocktail shaker. All three therefore answer the question the two bags do not: where the strainer sits while both hands are on the jug. A bag has to be held, tied or zipped onto a ring, and of the two bag picks only the WMKGG set supplies that ring.
The HiloFenar listing carries the one internal contradiction on this page. Its title calls it 4 Inch, its size field reads 4 Inch, and its dimension fields read 4.0 by 5.0 by 2.0 inches. Its fourth bullet then says the 5 in filter is recommended for containers with an inside diameter of approximately 4.0 to 5.4 in, which puts a different figure on the same object.
Nothing in the listing settles which number is the filter and which is the container, so this page quotes both and leans on the vessel range, because that is the figure a buyer measures against. KANSHENDH-US publishes the same 4.0 to 5.4 in range with no such gap, giving 6.5 by 4.95 by 1.97 inches for itself in one bullet against dimension fields of 4.92 by 6.5 by 1.92, which is the same object read to a different rounding.
Nut milk and pulp heavy juice. The PRINKROOMY bags publish 200 and 300 mesh options for nut milks and 100 mesh for fruit juices, plus double stitched seams for squeezing and an adjustable drawstring closure.
Cotton mesh with a frame. The WMKGG set publishes 80/180 micrometer cotton mesh on a 5.6 inch stainless frame with a handle. It is the pick when you want a published micrometer figure and a rigid ring to hold the bag open.
Cocktails and small pours. The Homestia strainer publishes 3.3 inches wide and 1.8 inches tall, with a rod handle and a front rest loop for a glass or shaker. Those are the lowest width and height figures of these five.
Nama J2 secondary filtration. The HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers both publish a 4.0 to 5.4 inch recommended vessel inside diameter and two handles that rest on a container. Choose between them on the published depth, 5.0 inches for the HiloFenar and 6.5 inches for the KANSHENDH-US.
Dishwasher cleaning. The Homestia and KANSHENDH-US strainers publish dishwasher cleaning as an option. The WMKGG bags specify handwashing. The PRINKROOMY bags publish rinsing under running water. Pick by the cleaning method you will actually follow.
Several figures are absent from the manufacturer listings. These are the ones we looked for and could not source.
Mesh density is the number of openings in a given area, or the size of those openings in micrometers. The WMKGG bags publish 80/180 micrometer cotton mesh. The PRINKROOMY bags publish 100, 200 and 300 mesh nylon options. A higher mesh number or a smaller micrometer figure means finer filtration. The three stainless strainers on this sheet do not publish a mesh figure at all.
The HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers both publish a recommended vessel inside diameter of 4.0 to 5.4 inches. The WMKGG frame is 5.6 inches across. The Homestia is 3.3 inches wide. Measure the opening of your pitcher before ordering, because a strainer that is too wide will not rest on the rim.
The Homestia, HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers all publish dishwasher cleaning as an option. The WMKGG bags specify handwashing, with instructions to rinse both sides and scrub gently with a soapy sponge. The PRINKROOMY bags publish rinsing under running water and quick drying. Follow the maker's stated method for each item.
A bag strainer is squeezed by hand to press liquid through the mesh, which the PRINKROOMY bags describe with double stitched seams for vigorous squeezing. A basket strainer rests on a container and lets liquid pass by gravity, which is how the HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers are described. Bags suit nut milk and pulp heavy juice. Baskets suit poured juice and cocktails.
The PRINKROOMY bags publish 200 and 300 mesh options for nut milks. The WMKGG bags publish 80/180 micrometer cotton mesh and list nut milk among their applications. The stainless strainers do not publish a mesh figure, so the maker states no filtration rating for nut milk. Use the published mesh figure as your guide.
Three of the five publish a figure. The Homestia strainer weighs 0.09 pounds and the WMKGG set 0.25 pounds. The PRINKROOMY bags publish 0.06 pounds, which the same listing pairs with a 9.8 by 9.8 by 13.78 inch size that the figure is far too light for, so treat it as uncertain rather than as the lowest weight here. The HiloFenar and KANSHENDH-US strainers publish no weight at all.
