I had been looking for this type of pan and lid for a while, and this was the cheapest I had found. It is a nice solid construction (the matching lid fits securely) and cooks evenly. I've only used it once, but made wheat bread with it and it didn't over or under brown it - it was just the right color. The only problem I had with this is that it doesn't come with a recipe or directions, and with a pan this size, it's hard to know what amount of dough to use with it. It says it holds a 1.5 lb loaf, but if anyone was used to using a bread machine, they would think that you use 3 cups of flour in your recipe for this pan - that is NOT the case. With this pan you should be using between 5-5.5 cups of flour in your recipe. I actually used 4.75 and it still worked well. Also if you grease the pan a little, the loaf comes right out - no sticking. Overall a good solid pan for the price.

This review is from: Focus Foodservice Commercial Bakeware 1 1/2 Pound Pullman Pan (Kitchen)

We'd been wanting a sandwich loaf pan for some time and after reading the reviews here, we decided on this one. We're extremely happy with this pan and the slide-on lid (sold separately). The pan and lid are very sturdy, and the loaves bake perfectly, nice even golden crust, great size and shape. We use the "White Sandwich Bread" recipe from the King Arthur Flour site, as recommended by another reviewer here. (We altered it for bread machine use and it's still awesome.) We've had no trouble with the lid - it slides on and off easily enough for us and the bread pops right out of the pan. We do rub the inside of the pan with a bit of oil on a paper towel before putting the dough in - that might not be needed, but we like the results it gets.

As someone else commented, a standard 3-cups-of-flour recipe might be too small for this pan. The recipe I use has a combined total of 4 cups of flour/potato flakes. This fills the pan well, but I suspect you could pack a 5-cups-of-flour dough in there. Haven't tried yet.

Happy Baking!!!

This pan, together with an appropriate recipe, such as the one at King Arthur Flour, makes a perfectly square loaf of fine-textured, thin-crusted bread. The pan feels much sturdier than any other bread pan I own.

To keep the top of the loaf flat, you'll need to buy the cover or put a cookie sheet with a weight on the pan. The cover is more convenient.
