Sturdy
I just cooked a Lasagna in this pan and it worked just fine. This is not a non-stick pan but clean-up was very easy. A good pan for everything I even made gravy from a roast in it.
Would recommend for all
These are some of the heaviest duty pans I've ever used. I bought it as a gift and wish I had ordered another for myself.
Another great Chicago Metallic Product
This thing feels like a WWII landing craft. It's heavy, not pretty, but it sure gets the job done. This pan could be around long after the end of life as we know it.
Just keep it clean and dry. Don't let it soak in water or you might be sorry. All these products seem to season like cast iron. The more you use them the darker they get and the slicker they feel as the pores of the metal seal. Be sure to use a baking spray or oil and flour to keep the sticking down.
WOW!
This thing came by rocket ship ordered it yesterday two day delivery. It was here before noon today. Amazon must had a distribution center across the street!
I am so pleased with this pan. I'm waiting for the others to arrive so that I can see how they do with my bread. I cannot believe how heavyweight these pans are. It's obvious quality. I remember my mother having something like this when I was a kid, and I have not seen anything made of this grade of metal at any of the "Cooks Supply". Things will stick to this. So make sure you grease and flour the pan prior to putting your biscuits or bread into it. Let the pan sit for about 2 or3 minutes, give it a shake or two and the bread just falls out. I'm planning on giving myself ... Read More
Badly Over-priced, very disappointing inferior quality
UPDATED UPDATE 5/11/08:
Buying this pan was a horrible waste of time and money. I've had it 7 months and it looks like it's 10 years old, badly discolored, with very dark gray spots that look like the metal is corroding through (like there is a hole forming). Chicago Metallic should be ashamed of itself for putting out such a shoddy product. I'll never buy this brand again. If I could change the number of stars I gave this pan, I'd change it to zero (actually, I'd like to make it -5). Owning this pan has been like a new romance where the first date is wonderful. Then you quickly find out that this person is not only a phony but has bad breath, chews tobacco, is a bigot and only likes you because s/he thought you had a lot of money.
