I've been using this baking pan every Thursday evening for my "weekend cakes". I find it very easy and convenient. Whether I'm making my delicious cheesecake or my no-fail chocolate/apple/nut torte, the cakes always come out perfect in this pan. I wait til the cake cools off and then ever so easily it springs open leaving the cake perfectly smooth around the sides. Aside from the baking factor, it washes very easily and always looks like new when I take it out of my cupboard for its next use!

My springform works just fine, but if you put anyting even remotely liquid in it, it leaks. Not good. It's fine for doughy items like a German-style Kuchen or Torte where the crust keeps any liquid from spilling out, but it's inadequate for a Spanish tortilla, etc., or anything else that has a very liquid consistency.

Made a German Apple Kuchen in my pan that I have not had since my mom made them when I was a kid. Pan was easy to use, cleaned up nicely and the cake was fabulous!

I bought this springform pan to replace a cheap one that I had bent while trying to secure the latch. I chose Chicago Metallic because I have several of their baking pans and I know their products are high quality. As soon as I pulled this pan out of the box, I knew it was going to be a lot better than my former pan. This pan is sturdy and has a good weight. It seals properly around the bottom (ie the bottom doesn't feel like it's going to fall out once you put a cake in the pan!) and there was minimal leakage with the first cheesecake I baked in this pan. The pan cleaned easily and there was no scratching on the bottom of the pan even though we used a knife to cut the cheesecake in the pan. Overall, I'm happy with this purchase and I think the pan will last for many years to come!

purchasing from Chicago Metallic is always a pleasure. They use good materials and the products are heavy weight. I just LOVE them.
