Just before the holidays, I ordered two of these. They were sent in separate boxes, with appropriate packaging, but while one arrived unscathed, the other had one of its corners slightly bashed in. At first I thought I could work with it anyway, but the corner was crunched in such a way that it would always catch the oven rack when pulling the cookies out of the oven. In a nonstick pan, this is no good! I can just imagine the cookies would go everywhere, not just (if I were lucky) back into the oven!

So asked for a replacement, which arrived a few days later and was in perfect condition, or so I thought. I put it in the tray-cupboard with the other pan being careful to stack them so that they would not scratch each other's nonstick surfaces. A week later, Christmas Eve, I went to cook with them for the first time, and when I got them out to wash them (prior to cooking with them for the first time) I discovered that one of them was slightly warped -- a defect I had not seen before, and which may have occurred at any time between the time I ordered the item and when I pulled it out to cook with. Upon further examination, I discovered that there was a small dent in the back which was causing the convex warp in the top. It was enough of a warp that the sheet would not lie flat on the countertop.

So, very gently -- with wet, soapy hands -- I tried to undo the damage and found that it bent in the other direction, far too easily. And it did so AT A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT PLACE from the original dent: about a quarter inch away. There is NO WAY these cookie sheets were "crafted from HEAVY-weight carbon steel" (as described above). Now I understood how easily the first one -- the one with the dent in the corner -- had been damaged, and how easily anyone could damage these right away with ordinary use. I wouldn't have bought them, if I'd known what I know now. They are way too flimsy, so I'm sending them back and I'll just have to save up for stronger ones made by another company.

Love this cookie sheet. Received two as a gift and am now replacing my old insulated ones with more Farberware. Cookies slid off with the greatest of ease.

I am a baker from way back, and I am thrilled to have this insulated Farberware, makes life so much easier.
