Chicago Metallic Jelly Roll Pan Set of 2-1 Inch

It bakes beautifully and evenly. This heavy-weight aluminized steel resists warping. Traditional uncoated surface requires manual scrubbing. What I Love About It is flawless Heat Distribution: Baked goods brown perfectly without hot spots. It stays completely flat even at high roasting temperatures. The thick steel feels incredibly sturdy and professional. The 16.75 x 12-inch size fits standard ovens perfectly. Dishwashers will discolor the traditional uncoated finish. Requires Greasing. You must use parchment paper or oil to prevent sticking.This is a lifetime pan for serious bakers who prefer uncoated bakeware over chemical coatings. It delivers exceptional professional-grade results every single time

Sorry folks, I do not bake. BUT... I do cook and these pans work fabulously! Almost anything I cook in the oven I now put on these pans. I have cooked chicken, chops, fish, vegetables etc and everything comes out great. I used to use All Clad's roaster for general oven cooking but I found the roaster pans were very heavy, involved a bigger clean-up and the high sides prevented the heat from circulating into the meat, fish and vegetables. These pans are so much better! I even burnt barbeque sauce onto the pan from roasting chicken breasts. I threw the pan into the dishwasher and voila... all clean!!!! I also have used them at high temperatures... 450-500 and I haven't experienced warping. If I were to bake, I might consider getting a pan dedicated just for baking but for now, I'm pleased with the over all general cooking use and easy clean up with these Chicago commercial pans. They are very sturdy and earn the "commercial" title. I love them and think they are an absolute necessity for any kitchen! Prior to this purchase and lucky find... I did have 'cheap' baking pans and that is exactly what they were. They were light, warped at high temperatures, turned an ugly brown color and never got really clean. They always looked dingy and I'd be embarrassed to use them if i had company. Now, I feel like I'm on the food channel cooking with quality pans. You get what you pay and at this price, I think they're a steal!

Nice heavy-duty pan. Made well.

This jelly roll pan is exactly what I expected. Love it

I've been looking for a sturdy pan with rims for baking and cooking, and that won't buckle under high heat. I have another rimless Chicago Metallic pan that I use all the time for cookies, so decided to see what else this brand has to offer. I ended up buying this pan, as well as a larger size, both rimmed, and uncoated, as nonstick requires more care. After a year of almost constant use, I can say with certainty that these pans cook food evenly (cookies, hamburger buns, and roasted vegetables alike), and when greased properly not much sticks. I was hoping with the wire rod reinforcement that I wouldn't have to worry about buckling, but these do buckle slightly under very high heats, 475° and above (biscuits and such). Not nearly as bad as a Wilton pan I had to return, though. As far as the glue goes, I didn't have a problem washing it off. Very pleased with the quality of this product and would purchase again.

These are heavy duty pans, and they do fit in our oven side by side, which was my main concern because the given measurements are interior, not the overall exterior size. They are also uncoated, which is stated in product description, but some reviews seemed vague about that. I think I will like them very much, they are heavier and deeper than the sheet pans we had been using and it looks like they will last a long time.

I wanted to publish this review because, first, the pan is the BEST. I mean, it's really good quality. It doesn't buckle, it bakes evenly, and it doesn't burn your food, especially when used with a Silpat mat or simple parchment paper. It's thick and sturdy, a full half-sheet size, and one of my very best kitchen 'friends'. It has high sides and is easy to grip and heavy enough to support a full pan of biscuits without wobbling or twisting. If you've ever had to cook Christmas breakfast for 16 hungry people and had to stuff a cookie sheet as full of biscuits as possible to feed everyone, you'd know how important this is. ;-) The 2nd reason I'm reviewing is because of the listed 'size' of the pan. I've ordered quite a few of these over the years, both for myself and as gifts. When I came back this year to order, I found my old 18x13 pan was no longer available. It was replaced by a 16 3/4 x 12. What?? Is it actually a smaller pan? I looked high and low and also even tried asking sellers if it was the same as the old 18x13. I noticed that the Silpats that were ordered alongside this pan were the same size as I've always ordered and after reading the one negative review about the size being wrong, I took a chance and ordered it. It's the same pan I've always ordered. Why the size change? I assume it's because the measurements are now the 'inside' measurements as opposed to the 'actual' measurements of the pan which, based on the current negative review, is a little misleading. So, it's a great pan. It's a half-sheet size, but it IS larger than the listed size, overall. Just take that into consideration if you would consider using this pan in anything less than a regular size oven.

Super heavy duty. Built like a tank. This pan will not flex and bend like regular stamped sheet metal. There is a sturdy steel rod that is encased around the rim. If anything, they are somewhat heavy. I bought this because a relative has had one for many years and it's indestructible. Size is perfect for recipes where a large jellyroll pan is too large. Sides are a full 1" deep so sheet cakes and brownies stay thick with room for frosting if desired.
