High quality,

This is the best bread pan I've ever used. It is not too dark or too light, so it promotes perfect browning. It is heavy duty. It will not rust. I have used many pans over the years and eventually they rust. I highly recommend this pan. It will be the last one you ever buy.

I bake a lot and love this pan for baking loaves that require 8x4 pan. It produces nice crusty breads. However, because of the pan's folded metal construction, not unlike the Commercial Calphalon pans, crusts get stuck in the corners and are hard to clean. It is otherwise a most excellent bread loaf pan.

My favorite bread pan!,

I've owned it all, from department store pans, to stoneware and this is my favorite bread pan! I bought it on the recommendation of my most used "healthy" cookbook. When baking with whole grain flour (no white flour mixed in), your bread doesn't develop as much gluten as white flour and tends to fall in a wider bread pan. This pan is a good 1" narrower than the average bread pan size and it works absolutely fabulous with whole grain bread.
This pan has a strong, sturdy construction and a great nonstick finish. I haven't had any trouble with my bread sticking to corners as was previously noted. The pan is lightweight (much lighter than stoneware!) and very easy to clean. Just a quick swipe and run under hot water and it's good to go.
Buy this pan if you bake a lot of bread! You won't be sorry. I need one more to make my own kitchen complete.
