Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I just got two of these pans for Christmas, and have just completed my first bake with them - they are superb! I do a lot of baking, however I have the most pathetic collection of loaf pans known to man - and every one is supposedly non-stick. Not one of them will release a loaf after baking, no matter what you do. So, I finally decided to spring for the real thing and get Chicago Metallics.
Why the hell I waited so long I don't know, but damn, these are magnificent.
And I also wanted to balance the comments of the two reviewers who dis'ed these pans. The reason why they are having such a bad experience with their pans is that they are killing them with kindness. They won't understand what I'm about to say, but the truth is that these pans are NOT supposed to be cleaned to within an inch of their life each time they're used. In fact, the less you clean them, the better! They will soon begin to blacken and become seasoned. Treat them like you would a cast iron skillet, and they'll last a lifetime.
And why would you want to clean out the tiny crevasses of the reinforcement wire? There is NO hygiene issue at the temperatures that bread or whatever is baked. After a dozen or so bakes, those openings will seal themselves, and your pan will be so well seasoned that you won't even need to oil it when you bake.
On my first bake, I oiled the pans, and baked at 375F for 40 minutes - I let the bread cool in the pans, and they literally fell out when I tilted the pan. FIRST USE! None of my non-stick pans will do that!
I'm delighted - and I look forward to a lifetime of pleasure from them.
