I was surprised that I didn't notice how big this pan was but was lucky enough to own my own pizza oven. My first batch of bread made for a neighborhood fundraiser (for a child) was a huge hit, including one woman who claimed it was better than the bread she had in France! The framework of the pan allows it to cool without a separate rack. I look forward to more homemade baguettes.

If you want to bake your own baguettes, you want them to be pretty and regular in size and shape, and have an oven that fits this pan, it's excellent. On the other hand, it's not good for much else, and I am reluctant to recommend tools of very limited use. You can do just as well (or better) with a baking stone, which can be used in many ways.

I purchased this perforated bread pan from Amazon. Unfortunately, when it arrived, it was HUGE. Didn't fit into my 30 inch oven--either width or length. The Amazon web site did not list the size of this pan. As a result, it cost me $7.00 to ship it back. In future, I believe the sizes of things ought to be included in all ads. It looked like a nice pan, though.

I got these pans for a bakery I own. Unfortunately they don't fit into a normal 18x26 rolling rack. That leaves them useless lying around your bakery.

Other than that, the perforated bottoms leave holes in bread which makes them look cheap and mass produced.

Like I said, cooks them well, just not great.
